Members thelegacy Posted August 2, 2008 Members Share Posted August 2, 2008 I have heard, from a very reliable source, that Sabians are about to go up 13%. Everything just keeps getting more expensive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ddeerreekk Posted August 2, 2008 Members Share Posted August 2, 2008 good thing I'm pretty much all set for cymbals, and they're mostly sabian too. Unfortunately I think we'll be seeing this same trend in most consumer products Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jenksdrummer Posted August 3, 2008 Members Share Posted August 3, 2008 I've not heard a Sabian that Iv'e liked in years, sadly. I want to like them. But Paiste keeps delivering...I'loving my Alphas - LOUD, bright, and sound like what I want them to sound like. The ride has a bit too much sustain, but, in the mix it's fine. Same with the bell for that ride - lol...it cuts REALLY though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members boxofrocks Posted August 3, 2008 Members Share Posted August 3, 2008 I heard from a store owner I buy stuff from, that Zildjian is going up 10% too. I think it's all metal products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members vht4me Posted August 3, 2008 Members Share Posted August 3, 2008 Just inflation i bet, and the increased price of Transport (gas). But, your right everything is getting expensive. Just try not to break those cymbals!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members boxofrocks Posted August 3, 2008 Members Share Posted August 3, 2008 I don't know if it's true or not, but I heard it on Pete's big mouth on Sirius radio. That because of the Olympics in China they have slowed production because of the pollution, so supply is down. They had a big talk bout how companies who use pipe are having a hard time getting it, because of that, so they are paying higher prices too.. It all rolls down hill...

Members D Carroll Posted August 3, 2008 Members Share Posted August 3, 2008 Once zildjian finds out that they are doing this, I predict that they will raise prices too, thus wuhan will be the biggest name in cymbals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
