Hi  gang

Printing more greenbacks isn't the only factor drive down the  value of the
dollar. The US position in the world of late, isn't very  conducive to
investment. For some time to come, the euro  will eclipse  the dollar. Aweak
dollar helps exports. but what if you haven't got that  much to export. Ten
Tec isn't the only company forced to raise  prices.




===================================
 
My thought on this is related to the cost.  Have you  checked the price of 
copper lately, it is turning in to gold, something the  alchemist's have tried 
to do in the past. Its price has more than quadrupled in  the past 6 months or 
so.  also Ten Tec is paying the same 3 bucks a gallon  for gas as everyone 
else, and the charges from the shippers reflect that as a  surcharge which raises 
the price of shipping. this continues on down the line ,  affecting the cost 
of parts, paint and toilet paper.  there will have to be  some increases to 
stay viable.
 
I find them worth the $$$ .
