Title: Dollar Exchange rate
Post by: Doug Holloway on November 19, 2008, 08:20:09 am

Hi Guys

With Sterling having fallen from 2.0 to 1.5 against the dollar, have you found the price of equipment increasing?

All the Truckmounts, Scorpion, Speedster are US machines and I believe the Ninja is made in the US but assembled here must be becoming more expensive to import.

Also British built like Alltec, Extracta wil have US vacs.

Cheers

Doug

The extra expense will obviously have to passed on to the custy, they won't like that!

Hi guys

From what I've heard this could be  good time tobuy if you are feeling flush as the suppliers are not going to be able to hold prices for long.

I'm glad I decided to get my TM, thought about the credit crunch and then decided to go for it anyway, looks like a good decision.

Cheers
