Zammnn base price on all boards went up, but gahhhdamnnn a base price album is now $1275 thru them???? Some shake ups must've happened...
They can raise prices, but they’ll never kill the dream!
I’m looking at my rack of albums thinking maybe my kid will in fact go to college on dads dime…
I think the writing is on the wall where pricing is headed with the contract manufacturers. It almost looks like they’re trying to pull people back towards HQ pu/pe with those still at $900, lol.Could Varial be next???
it was all over the erBB that ordering direct from album made the least sense from a cost perspective, which is probably also the highest margin option for the company.
It was probably me lol. I reached out to mat for some dims for a lightbender - he was stoked on making me a custom, when I told him xtr I got the sense he was not stoked, shortly after our last exchange xtr added a $450 fee to album boards…
The most recent stock albums on Varial last month look like they’ve gone up to 1200-1300. Pretty sure they were 950-1050 a few months ago.Could Varial be next???
Makes me feel good about my 1 month old XTR Vesper... I noticed that the order # made a significant jump - now 11xxx, from 8xxx - in the space of 5 months or so, and confronted Shey w/ this and he said the number was real and the volume was up.
Vesper and other “new Models” have an even bigger upcharge. Iirc it would be $1450 for a yellowing xtr clear.
I think the in-house glass shop is standing around and that tasks them to make more stock boars for retail, but those don’t sell fast anymore, so now need to push customs through HQ.
