Mobil 1 packs have a higher cap, reported as five units. A ten quart Kirkland case that used to sell in the mid thirties is now listed near fifty eight dollars.
You can still buy motor oil. Bulk buys at warehouse clubs are capped, prices are higher, and some viscosities may be harder to find. Follow the oil change interval in the owner manual unless a shop gives a listed one time substitute.
The larger point is simple. A lot of the oil modern engines need depends on foreign base stock and a narrow shipping route. When that route or those plants fail, the shortage shows up in a Costco aisle.
