Are prices rising, or is it just me?

Is it just me, or did the price on this increase drastically? I noticed this on a handful of other products in the BDSM category that are on sale, and I'm slightly confused. Some of them, the sale price is now little more than what they were originally. Another example is the armband collar, which used to be around thirty or so, I believe, but is now much, much higher in price.

If the prices have increased it's probably by request of the manufacturer.

I had a big increase in my items I order for my personal brick and mortar store--not sex related--so I imagine costs are going up all over the board. It sucks, but when in a retail/sales business it does happen!!

I guess sex toys are being effected by the economy too....that and my kale! I'm going to be broke and happy I guess. =+)

Seems in line with things I'm seeing in other retail outlets too. The store I work in (also not sex related) has had more markups recently than I've seen in a while. The economy just sucks.

I've noticed a few pieces that have jumped in price. A while ago, the Studded Paddle (while still out of stock) jumped over 10 dollars.

I've noticed prices jumping up everywhere. This kind of doesn't surprise me that it happens here.

Yes I too have noticed increases in prices, shipping, gas and such. No increases in wages though!

Prices are increasing for items in general, so I wouldn't be surprised
