Default Shortage of Tomato Cages

Has anyone here tried to buy tomato cages this spring?

I thought I'd purchase a few more Burpee XL Pro cages for this season, but evidently the Covid situation has created a shortage of the materials needed to make them. I looked at several sellers of tomato cages, and find that all the better ones (i.e. Made in the USA) cages are unavailable -- even at Texas Tomato Cages. I wouldn't think that Galvanized steel rod would be an issue, but evidently it is. Sounds like the steel shortage is not going away anytime soon.
