@hjl360 I wouldnt doubt it.

I had my eye on a model 10 this year as well, that’s kind of insane it went up $1k in one increase.
That’s a pass. -
@Conan said in GOOD ART HLYWD - A Gallery:
I had my sights on a Model 10. It was gonna be a stretch, but with the price increase, it’s now beyond my means (and common sense).
I intended to wait until end of 2026 to get one but the 47% price increase made me jump on one now while some vendors are still selling at 2025 prices. It would be permanently out of reach otherwise. This will probably be one of the last GAH pieces I’ll reasonably be able to acquire.

@worn2fade not a back up for me; just a grail item (model 10 bracelet) that I have been planning to pick up for a long time now. I couldn’t do it with the new price structure so I just bit the bullet now while it’s still available at a reasonable price point.

@worn2fade I bought one (size b) because of their posts, the price increases and FOMO
That said, it looks like I'm quickly heading toward being a brass, copper and tin(man) myself. 
-
@jdwaid I bought another silver BLB for the same reason. I have wanted to upgrade from my OG brass and found one at the old price.

Quite a let down for a lot people. I always said Good Art has changed. It booming. But the prices are very greedy becoming ruthless.
I admit I have bought quite a a lot. The price started going up after Covid.
A lot of stuff I brought not worth the price Josh is charging today.
Price of the buddy loop in sliver Is terrible. Many of you are noticing now. For example before this hike. I got my curb chain for $1000 went up by $800 more.
Also I reach out to Good Art. Got told company decision.
For this reason I made my mind up, I will only buy a few things. Not go on a rampage speed for all of it.
I slow down a long time ago. -
This collab would’ve been my choice honestly. But I’m still not ready to drop 1k+ on a silver bracelet lol. I respect the art but I just can’t do that yet, as much as I want to and figure the price would only get worst from here.

@Mister_Brue
Could you imagine if the next restock of IH jeans were $1,100?! -
@worn2fade I was thinking if in 10-15 years I thrash my current Clip 8 or lose it I won't have to pay $5,000 for a new one in 2035
no telling how much GA will mark it up by then.. Or resell it. -
@Go-For-Chill dude if IH jeans were $1,000 I'd cry. I'd be priced out of our hobby.
@Mister_Brue knock on wood

All right, solid question, if the silver price comes down, will we adjust our prices?? Short answer is yes. Caveat is it would need to come down considerably and lock in at a stable point.
In about 35 years of doing this, the price has never come down for more than a short bit. It always goes up.
I’d suggest a little digging on Google, this is different from anytime in the past when silver has gone up dramatically. This time people are aware that we consume more with modern industries than we produce each year.
Really all this means is shits gonna be a little (to a lot) more expensive and we’re going to have to spend a lot more time repricing. That’s a omething we typically only did once every one or two years.
I just wanted to give a heads up in an explanation and I am probably making this sound terrible. It’s not it’s an adjustment. It’s been long overdue.

Do you know if that would fit through a UHF button hole?

Every
Day
Ludicrous
CarryGrateful to have the pieces I do.
The increases are harsh, but Good Art has always been something fun, for me, that most normies wouldn’t understand - even at old prices.
It’s actually their customer service that has turned me off the most. Don’t know if I’ve experienced worse, and it will be that that drives me away….
-
At the end of the day, they can charge whatever they want for their product, and we can choose whether we want to pay it. I’ve no skin in the game given I own just a couple of their more “affordable” pieces.
But, as someone who was looking forward to splurging an already hefty sum on some stuff this year, I’ll have to look elsewhere at the markup they’re introducing. I’m sure they don’t take these decisions lightly and know that a lot of existing and loyal customers will now be priced out of buying.
