PapaGriz wasn't kidding...
2009 catalog prices went up! Their cyclones jumped as much as 33%.
It'll be interesting to see if they run more sales this year. Last year they didn't have a Summer Sale because of the increased costs. I am sure there is a significant processing time on the catalog work-up and surely commodity prices have come down since it went to press.

Call for price up dates. Still to high for me on some things.

That's what I am thinking. Seems like they would get buried by companies cutting prices when they are locked into those catalog prices.
The increased costs excuse just plain doesn't fly anymore. Steel is down dramatically. Fuel is down dramatically.

I always search from the home page, then call to get a current price.
