Park Tools Price increases!

[e-rider]

Has anyone else noticed the absolutely MASSIVE price increase on Park Tools?

I know the £ is weak but how can they justify such increases to what were already expensive tools!

Before you go looking on CRC to see what I mean, prepare yourself for a shock - 50% to 85% increases on the entire range - yes, that means some tools have almost doubled in price over night - CRAZY DAYS

All prices are going up not just with tools.

There seem to be loads of threads recently about stonking price increases. Shimano stuff seems to have gone up about 50%.

The press has often suggested that cycling will see a boom due to the credit crunch but, at today's eye watering prices, I wonder.

Ouch. I just checked some prices. Not good.

All I can say is that thankfully I don't personally need anything at the moment. I guess we'll all be doing a bit more sharing for a while.
