[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by swdave</i> <br /><br />Atlas just had a 10% increase in their prices, but they did announce it well ahead of time. But the kicker of it for me was our LHS increased the prices on all his Atlas that he already in stock, now this is down right dirty if you ask me! The guy who owned the store before him never did that. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />He was entirely justified in doing that, it is just common business sense. When he orders the track next time he has to pay the increased price, if he does not mark up the new stock, then he will not have the capital to pay for that track. <br /> <br />In addition once that new track comes in it will have the new higher sticker price. Some states like Ohio where I live have a law that if two boxes of the same item have different prices on them the customer can insist by law that he get the lower price on both boxes. So again it is just common business practice to have all items of the same thing with the same price <br /> <br />Rick
