it makes no sense for a shop to raise the prices of the fabrics already on their shelves- they did not pay the higher prices for it- the higher prices should only be effecting new fabrics that are coming in at a higher price. funny how some gas stations hear- "oh-oh oil went up today" and respond with- we better go raise our prices---
IT IS PRICE GOUGING PEOPLE- and i would not frequent a shop who was doing this- really seems un-ethical---and to lower themselves to the standards of (oil barons) is really sad. i am so happy the 3 shops close to me are not behaving so poorly
I agree with what you said. I think I'll be o.k. for a while. I only shop sales with the exception of a hand full of fabrics I just loved. I can only think of 2 I paid regular price for. A batik with snowflakes and another with beautiful birds on it. Like I said I think I'll be fine with what I have and I will continue to shop sales only!
Most but not all of my fabric. I have 2 other shelf units and a hutch with fabric and flannels, and Batiks. Again I shop sales!!!
