Price increases on K3, K2 etc coming - Get those orders in! :-)

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ]

Heads up! - We want to give an advance notice to our loyal Elecraft
email list members.

We will be increasing prices a small amount on the K3 and our other
products in early September. If you have been on the fence deciding when
to order, this is your chance. :-) Orders received before the price
increase will be honored at the current web price as of the order date.

We and most other manufacturers have seen industry wide upward pricing
pressure on a number of key components, fabricated parts, delivery costs
etc. over the past 6 months, which is impacting many of our products. In
general we have worked hard to hold off passing through these increases
as long as possible. We're keeping it as small as we can, but finally
have to make some adjustments.

Please don't email or call the factory requesting more details right
now. We are still looking at the total cost impact on each product.
Watch the web order form for the final changes in Sept.

Hi,

I've had several requests to update status on our price changes. The
date will be in a week and a half - 9/15 or 9/16.

(Lisa was out this week. We need to meet and confirm the change amounts,
modify the web pages, order forms, accounting system etc.)

Please don't email or call the factory requesting more details right now.  Watch the web order form for the final changes in Sept. I'll also post here when it is updated.
