Now, to be completely fair, I have no idea what difference you're looking at cost wise right now based on 65 boards as "normal" prices versus what they are today.
I have never bought planks this size but they are running about $22 each. I bought a couple of pressure treated 2" X 4" X 8' at Lowes when I was there the other day and they were $7 and something each. If memory serves, they were $4-$5 last time I bought them. So that means the prices are at least 1.5 or so times what they were a year ago.
