Whitebridges Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 (edited) I've heard from three separate sources that cartridges are about to go up by about 10 -15% very shortly. :< Has anyone else heard this? Apparently, lead has gone up in price and now is a good time to get a few before the price increases. At the moment I can get hold of the Eley HB pigeon load for £110 a thousand so I might help myself to a few before they go up.

dunganick Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 wouldnt be the first time ive heard this what you going to do, the way i get through carts even if i bought a few thousand that would only last a few months. IF prices go up, we will have to pay extra, it cant be avoided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Symes Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Yep. I was told 8 % increase as of next week, thought it was the typical sales pitch. Obviously not!! :< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO saving £15 a thousand is worth having so I'm off to the Gunshop tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
