Club Members Bravedan 106 Posted October 26, 2016 Club Members Share Posted October 26, 2016 Have you not been buying aircraft parts? I bought two weeks ago three things from China at £8.53 each, because I knew they would rise with the dollar to pound issue - today they are £12.80. A plane I bought at £85 two months back is now more than £160. A week ago it was £126. It's not just started, its been happening for some time. It won't get better either, as when they realise that we will still buy (the only choice being not to since there is no other source), if the rate improves, THEY will revalue the products. I'm tracking a few key items that are likely to have a long sale time. Its NOT good news. Wait till you need to buy something big value, (car, etc) that has to come from a foreign manufacturing source! Link to post Share on other sites
