Below is a quote from a post that Phil entered into the "Well, the prices have gone up" thread. I thought I would put a copy of it in a more central location so that anyone looking for information on this development can fine it easily, without having to browse pages of posts.
Our prices have gone up to cover new overhead costs detailed below.
-Higher quality and more expensive components we upgraded to in the last year, threaded blade tips, 2mm copper LED stars, 6W+ and 12W+ LEDs, 3A chargers, polycarbonate battery holders, silver plated wires, ect. -Increased labor costs, 100% employer paid health care plan, 100% employer paid dental and vision plan, 4% employer matching 401k plan, PTO and sick time. -New facilities and associated start up costs. -R&D costs for new lit stands, flat profile blades, soundboard development, ect. Hero level saber pricing needed to be revised for some time, we now have pricing for our multi font infinite color sabers with in hilt recharge that are competitive with similarly equipped sabers from other vendors using NEC or PL boards, although ours are still more affordable and BRIGHTER. Here is information he posted about an upcoming line of laser cut products:
We now have four 24"x36" 120w CO2 laser cutters and will be releasing the worlds brightest and most durable lit acrylic stands very soon. But thats just the beginning, we will be offering a whole line up of laser cut and etched products.
...and here is a quick quote about Etsy sabers coming to the main site, and a hint of something new:
More etsy exclusive sabers coming to the website today and tomorrow, plus a new curved saber called the vanquish we are doing the release pictures of this week.
