I just noticed on the pcX site that Rubycon has agreed to resume (continue?) production of Black Gate capacitors. I am very happy to hear that, although Rubycon is starting to sound like a broken record. If those caps weren't so darn good, we'd all be complaining Rubycon cries wolf much too often.    But it is great news.

And momentary price for (NOS) WKZ 100+100µF/500V is about $90...

I bought some 47uF 35v parts (or thereabouts) maybe 6 months ago, and they were just a couple bucks each. About the same for polarized and non-polarized parts. So while they were more expensive than other electrolytics, they weren't as expensive as polypropylene caps. But when you get up into the high voltage values, I guess that's where they get expensive.
