"The Times, they are a Changin'"

Yup, it's almost that time again. Time for prices to increase on many of the tools that we carry. A number of our manufacturers actually raised prices to us back in July of this year, but we don't like to do that, so we normally only raise our prices in January of each year if we can help it. And this January will be no different. Many of our manufacturers have already informed us that their prices will again increase to us in January. This time we can't hold off any longer.

So, on January 1st 2009 a large portion of our products will experience price increases from 2 to 8% from all our 3M product lines, to Covington machinery, to Cyclone sandblasters, to Abrasive Technology and Crystalite products. As I mentioned earlier, most of these prices actually increased to us back in July, but we've held many of them to the same level that they were in January of 2008.

Now is the perfect time to get the tools and accessories you need before the price increase. Not only will it save your tax liability for 2008 here at the last quarter of the year, but it will save you money by purchasing before the January 1st price increase.
