Has anyone else noticed that prices went up $5 for each tier on the SF website? Not a HUGE deal but it's curious.

THE FOLLOWING TEXT WAS ADDED BY THE OWNER PHILLIP

I increased warrior, champion, and hero upgrade prices by 5.00 for two reasons.

First I wanted to pay my guys 5.00 more per build and did not have any room in my thin margins.

Second, I have not raised prices on my upgrades in 3 years, despite the fact that due to inflation the dollar is worth less than it was in 2012, and as a result my components cost more.

So consider this our annual cost of living inflation increase, but take solace in the fact that every penny is going to the techs who build your sabers, and believe me they deserve it.

If you don't like inflation (a hidden tax on everyone who uses dollars), pressure your representatives for a return to the gold standard and the end of the unconstitutional privately owned federal reserve.

If $5 more means we keep getting beautiful new blades like the Juggernaut, Silver Knight, etx, and Phil / Justin / Et al keep a roof over their heads? I'm fine with it.

I don't really care why the price went up. If they're charging more, they can feel free to do so. It's their business and it's up to me whether I want to pay it. But all the time I see people saying "hire new employees!" more saber techs and customer service reps. Make my saber faster, answer me questions faster, make hilt review videos, etc etc etc. You know what? New employees have to get paid. So everyone that wants to complain about this unbelievably insignificant price increase will be getting laughs from me.
