Thanks for the heads up. I was hoping this was an across the board thing when I saw the title. Since every piece of AS merch is insane.

I see they have adjusted their price from "Trip to a Prison Shower without lube" and are now providing the lube.

Almost but better than ...

This isn't Walmart class gear hence not Walmart class price. Nice to see the price come down a bit.

Compare Aquakinz main product line pricing to Canyon and VS and you will learn that in many cases Aquaskinz is the same or even cheaper.

Compare the Elite line to Hunter or some of the other semi/custom bags and you will find Aquaskinz to be a lot less expensive.

When do the price changes take effect?

??????? Maybe the 3rd times a charm.


Prices on the skinz website still reflect the old pricing so if someone places an order now they can assume that their cc will be charged based the new pricing?

Negative, figured since it was on the topic I would just ask the question here. Oh well.

Sorry I did not answer right away as I was waiting for one of the dealers that are involved with the site to jump in and thanks to Pete for doing just that. I no longer "sell" for the company and am not privy to some sales information but I am on Pro Staff (marketing)and have specific instructions to promote local dealers and play down any company direct sales on the East Coast. Kadir prefers the local shops sell the product and any direct sales are only set up because of a lack of dealers that has resulted in demand from customer groups in remote locations.
