Lane Price Increases

As you know, Robert Allen raised prices last week.
Today, we were notified that Lane is also increasing their prices by 5%. This is effective immediately, and old quotes will not be honored.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this causes, but you should be aware that there are many changes going on in China---improved wages and labor laws, stricter pollution regulations and other factors that will inevitably increase costs. All we can do is be as educated as we can, in order to explain the situation to our customers.

The bright side is that maybe someday, more manufacturing will return to the USA!!
