AD visit - claming Feburay price increase.

I was by an AD yesterday and I was told that there was a 7% across-the-board increase in two weeks. Anyone else heard this, there seems to be some confusion if there will or not be an increase soon.

I bought my new Sub on the 8th of Feb. No price increase there - in fact, a damn good discount if ever I saw one from Mansor's!!!

In the USA the price increase is usually Feb 15th. I have heard rumors both ways. With the dollar devaluating again and precious metals going up I cannot imagine no increase but we will see in a few days. I bought my YM a year ago and got 1K off just prior to the increase and no tax. =) maverick

I was at an AD the other day, and the rep said they have decided NOT to have an increase in feb, but "may" have one later on in the year.

After years of no change here in the UK, prices went up around December or Jan - a Sub-date is now £2650

I'd be amazed if they went up again, I think the increase has been phased in across the globe?

I have a 2000 catalogue, listing the 16610 at £2350, and that's exactly what I paid in Aug '05!
