Is it just me or did they just increase the price on the 26?

Woah. Glad I scooped one last week. Paying full retail was tough but lucky to get it before this increase.

Tariffs kicking in? Damn. Looks like all companies are raising their prices. Yeti has done the same.

Trump tax is real

Here’s the thing. Trump could take away all the tariffs tomorrow and that price will never come back down. That’s the new set price until they raise it again.

I just put the wheels on my ~$300 DIY 26″ Performer today. I also recently built my own pressure washer. These tariffs can go to hell.

I believe until today the prices had remained unchanged for a couple of years. So they were probably due for a small price hike to keep up with inflation even without the tariffs. Add the tariffs into the mix and a 10% hike isn’t too unreasonable.

I ordered the Smoque last Friday when it came available with a few accessories. The smoker is not here yet, but today it was $100 more.

For that price get yourself a PK grill instead.

Holy crap. The copper performer deluxe is $779 now. I paid like $400 in 2020 for it.

It will be fine. All you have to do is keep tariffs in place a minimum of 10 years, convince someone in the US to invest in building factories to build all the parts, and get the workers to accept $3 / hr like the ones in the Chinese factories, and in 10–12 years the prices might come back down. Or, remove the tariffs. I guess USA chose which one of those two things it wanted.

Do we think this will happen to the 22” master touch?
