Tony / Skip,

I wish I had an answer to that question but I don't.

We all know price is a sensitive subject with any product, this is why I choose not to suggest a retail price for any of my products. I don't feel it's necessary to dictate how much someone should make or not make. If someone wants to charge $89 dollars for a green widget with pink spots, then so be it. If they want to charge less for what they bought it for, then so be it.

People seem to forget that the middle man, the person you actually buy the product from, makes money on the item too, sometimes more than I do after it's all said and done. In addition the hype from sellers on eBay and other auction sites only drives the price up on any product, not down.

What I can tell you is that the cost of everything has gone up and I've done my part to absorb as much of it as possible. Stainless steel wire, eyes, wood, shipping charges, electricity, and the like. I do my best to remain competitive with other manufactures, and looking at the sales I do not think I am out of line at all.
