Holy Price Increase!!

[Armourall]

He doesn’t seem mad at all to me, he just said that he’d hold off. That’s a big price increase, he’d be best served by calling and asking them.

I'm not mad and I tried not to seem that way in my OP. I was just wondering why the huge increase from even the original price. I will do as Bullseye suggests and send a message and inquire. I was going to purchase one a few months ago but held off because of the May 1 announcement. That really freaked me out as I just got into reloading and thought the end was near - now I don't think that way and in fact think we're going to be ok so it's time to keep investing in what I love doing.

Thanks to everyone for not having this one go sideways like most of them do anymore.

Cost of overhead increases (as a tenant in a lease, I’ve never had or heard of the taxes going down, or the cost of rent decreasing over the span of the lease term)
Inflation
Decreased dollar
Increased import fees
Increased cost of employees (raises, some being mandated by the government - such as minimum wage)
Increased shipping costs
Supply/demand
Covid added stresses in supply and demand

Many factors to consider.
Some of which may be recent, some of what may just be noticeable now, or maybe it happen that it should have been increased in price long ago, but was missed, and finally caught with new price adjustments.

Lots of armchair quarterbacks, but I don’t see a slough of gun-stores opening from all the people that seem to know how businesses operate

It is nice of you to assume anyone who question the price increase is armchair quarterbacks who doesn’t know how business works?

Price increase is normal but you wouldn’t agree a price increase of 25% is a bit too much?

I was looking at purchasing a Frankford Arsenal Platinum Series Case Prep and Trim Center on the weekend from you as it said you had 22 available and they were on sale for $230 I believe from your regular price of $254 or something like that. I went today to pull the trigger and the price of those same in stock 22 units is now $319.99. Wow! These units were in stock so the dollar had nothing to do with it. Even if the sale was over and the price was $254 I would have purchased one but I guess I'll keep looking. What happened??

When JT dropped money by government's helicopter into people's account and when offer that free printed money to his family for free , when a country goes into 1.3 Trillion dollars in debt only in 2 months that is going to be the result , Canadian dollar value went down, called hyperinflation

Pretty sure it's the same gas in the pumps when the price goes up 10c a liter too.

covid was/is the fraudulent excuse to feed the ignorant fearful sheeple for the intentional crashing of the economy.

And there's lots more to come.

Covid killed the dollar

So when Bullseye has a price hike everyone can accept and justify it, when Western metals has one they get decimated in the thread.

Interesting to say the least.

Need item, item is more expensive, fork out more money, buy item, end of story.

I always thought CGNers decimated without prejudice.

I always wonder what people who complain about pricing do for a living.
