Dallas Bonsai Will Be Increasing Their Tool Prices

Post by Orion »

:cry:
Dallas Bonsai Garden Important Announcement

PRICE INCREASE ON TOOLS EFFECTIVE SATURDAY JUNE 19, 2010

We knew it had to happen soon, we just weren't sure when.

We replenished our tool inventory and will be receiving them on Saturday
June 19, 2010. We will sell our current inventory at the current prices
until then.

If you are looking to buy a bonsai tool in the next year, _you should [1]buy
now! _

Some tools will be going up $20 - $30. One tool will go up from $17.95 to
$45.96!!!

Even at these increased prices, we will still be the best value in the
world, but why wait? Buy the tool you have been eyeing _NOW and save a LOT
of money on it!_

We wanted to let you know of this upcoming price increase now. We feel it is
our responsibility. Just so you know, we are being forced to raise our
prices on tools because:

1) The Yen to the Dollar has decreased because of the deflation of the US
dollar.

2) The materials cost for production has increased.

3) The labor to make the tools has increased in cost.

-Fred Meyer


I got this email because I subscribed to them.
Just Informing people of the price change so they would be able to buy before the price changes.
I know I would but no money for now:(

Always we hope someone else has the answer.

i would be ringing them mate, did you get a receipt number? you have paid for your tools and rightly deserve them, i know how hard it is without the tools after just recently getting mine back! if you dont get onto them you wont hear from them mate, if they dont respond via email, ring them, ring them everyday if need, i know it will be exxy being international but one call should do it, have all your info ready, receipt number especially!

I am very sorry for you Jarryd, after six months I would label them as shonky especialy as you are not getting any replys.

IT leads me to this though, why the USA when Leigh has the tools for a good price in Australia.

This thread is an ad for a shonky? Quick, somebody start some banter so it gets deleted :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hey Pup, you going to watch Australia Vs Germany tonight, I'm thinking of going right through, maybe catch up on some paperwork, 4.30 am is a bugger of a time to get up if you are still up at 1am. Timeslot is much better for you SAF is just across the water a little bit eh. I'll take a nap this arvo if I need to. Anyone on the East coast gonna watch?

Cheers
Mojo

Despite the exchange rate at the moment - Ledanta Bonsai Nursery wont be increasing their prices on Nobuichi and Masakuni tools. Consider it a discount! :D
Cheers,
