11% sind sicherlich nicht wenig, aber wie richtig gesagt: 3 jahre lang keine erhöhung ist mehr als fair. irgendwann muss man es machen, um gestiegene kosten und inflation auszugleichen.

mich betrifft es auch nicht wirklich... eine kompanie box und noch ein paar s.o. und ich bins. kann aber verstehen, dass vielen es bös auf das gemüt schlägt, aber hobby ist nun mal hobby und keine pflicht. man kann es auch in maßen betreiben.

ich finde 11% nach über 3 jahren konstante preise wirklich noch vertretbar. ganz im gegensatz zu den steigenden spritpreisen 25% in unter einem halben jahr. sowas ist schon frech.

dann jetzt noch mal ein paar hamsterkäufe tätigen.

Von BF kann ich das noch akzeptieren, vor allem da es ja stimmt und ich mich weder an Preiserhöhungen noch Beteuerungen von ihrer Seite erinnern kann, die Preise nicht zu erhöhen.
Glücklicherweise brauche ich nicht mehr viele Dinge (glaube ich zumindest ;)).

The USA has seen no increase in prices for over two and a half years, and Europe and Australasia for over three and a half years.

Erinnert an das Argument unsere Regierung bei der Erhöhung der ParK Tickets *lol*

Aber was solls Wird eh alles teurer

Danke für die Info Muss also nochmal schnell vielleicht was ordern

Lg

von der BF seite...

Despite waiting as long as possible, the time has come for us to acknowledge that the increase in the costs of doing business in the world today will have to impact the Battlefront range.

Despite the cost of metal and oil - a major component of resin - and the added cost of transporting anything around the world increasing to record levels these last few years, we have managed to keep to our promise not to increase prices for at least two years. In fact, this month will be two and half years since I made that statement.

Having gone through the numbers and tried to make sense of what is to come in the next few years, I am going to increase prices by 11% from 8th June 2008. This is an average percentage across the whole range, meaning that some items will go up more and some not at all.

The USA has seen no increase in prices for over two and a half years, and Europe and Australasia for over three and a half years. Inflation alone during this time would not be far from the change we are about to make, but the need to keep any increase to a minimum has been a major concern for us.

It is not all bad news, as we have not needed to increase everything. In areas like printing, where volume does reduce costs, this means we will be able to leave all books at their current price. Gaming accessories and hobby products will also remain unchanged. Boxed sets will continue to be the core of our range, with the contents - comparative to the individual components - being an even better discount after the change than they are today.

In all, we have striven to get an average balance that will hopefully be received as well as it can be, but that keeps the Flames Of War hobby at the top of the list when it comes to value for money comparative to other toy-soldier gaming. A full list of what prices are changing to will be available at your local store next week.

On a final note, I am happy to once again pledge my word that I will not alter any prices for at least two years in the hope that, having managed to keep my word once, you now know I am making a statement of fact rather than intent.
