Wandy 1527 Posted December 3, 2008 Unless I have missed something I notice that your prices have not changed since the VAT change to 15%. Are you going to change your prices to reflect this change? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theshopkeeper 39 Posted December 3, 2008 Like everyone else in the model trade, we are trying instead to absorb all the price rises as far as possible. We are receiving new price lists DAILY from suppliers with price rises between 5% and 40%, plus an annual increase in carrier fees just kicked in on the 1st too. All well and good the chanceller giving a tiny "discount" but given everything sold in the UK is paid for in Dollars, and you now get 25% less Dollar for your Pound... As ever, we're keeping an eye on prices to ensure we remain competitive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've noticed things going up massivly (especially when importing in dollors) and the pathetic 2.5% has just paniced people buying hi value items. My commisions over the next few months are going to be laughable. I'm actually being pro-active. [shock/ horror!] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
