Due to the skyrocketing costs of materials--and everything else for that matter--we have no option but to increase our prices. Since our start in 1997, we have not executed a significant price increase (though we have had some very moderate ones) and have not been regularly adjusting our prices to inflation. We had always been able to find a way to keep them in the current range. Unfortunately, we are now out of cost saving options and it is necessary to execute an increase. New pricing will go into effect on or around the evening of May 25, 2008 and will range from 5-15 % depending upon the item.
I am actually a week + late in changing prices--though I'm sure those who have ordered recently didn't mind. The new prices are now in effect (06/03/08).
