Guest Stag Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Yesterday I just got my price increase list from Llumar in the mail(about 5%). Just wondering if anybody else been hit to. I guess it was coming due to everything else going up. The customer pays for extra prices at the gas pump,grocery store, etc.. but complains when the tint shop tries to raise their price to meet with the demand. You guys dealing with this to.

Roach Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 I haven't gotten LLs from anyone yet, but I expect to shortly. Every year they raise their prices... which I raise mine too, so I can't exactly be too upset over it. I dunno... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flat rock stan Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 5% is a new car for me so this time of year is scary for me. I just have to raise prices on retail this year to stay in business. Taxes on my building went up another 300 hundred a MONTH this year. it's out of control. 500 yesterday for graval, 200 hundred last week to repair the overhead door I have a contract on my price that expires in just short of 60 days. Crap I better go to work and stop hanging out so late on TD. heheheeheheheheeeh no way Stan Foster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Customtinting Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Recieved info that Madico is going up again soon also. It kind of hits ya weird that LLumar would increase, since they are getting more money inhouse since they took distribution away from SAGR and others. That puts more into their pockets on that end. In all reality, they could have LOWERED the price if they wanted to, or stayed the course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cp is slowly going in house with all distribution and pulled from SAGR when their contract ran out. I spoke to the CP factory rep long before this was out on a related issue. Sagr scrambled and picked up SunTek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your price would go up too, so would it be fair to punish the pro with a higher price to keep a hack away? Which I don't think a higher price would do They just need to stop selling to the unlicensed hacks and letting anyone use the films like the car wash business's now offering tint . Besides there are too many low end films on the market they could use, why use a pro film if they can buy a roll for $80 compared to almost $300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
