NEWS Massive price increases are being experienced on certain products due to huge price increases at the wholesale level for electrical and electronic parts utilized in the manufacturing of our products. Due to both "gouging" by "sole source" distributors (distributors of products utilized in our products sold by only one company) and the fact that the American dollar's purchasing value has fallen dramatically overseas, we now pay up to 63% more for some of these critical parts. In addition to that, our incoming freight costs have risen over 7% for all shipments. That means that some materials we use have risen in expense up to 70% in cost. Of course, we have to increase our prices to survive and apologize for some of these price increases. We can thank our current government for the destruction of American manufacturing, both on the large and small levels. No wonder American big business manufacture in foreign countries and then import and sell these products to the American people and manufacturers at highly profitable levels. They have to for the cost of doing business in America has doomed all who wish to manufacture here utilizing American made parts, American labor, and freedom from government oppression through untold thousands of regulations affecting business and manufacturing.
