Hi all

I just wanted to let you know in advance that we'll be updating the prices on the Robosavvy store very soon.

The GBP has gone down significantly against the USD and the EUR and therefore, on the products from companies who work with those currencies, the prices are likely to increase.

We will try to limit the increase to no more than 3% in this initial phase although exchange rate fluctuations of almost 6% have occurred since the last price revision.


We are announcing this in advance so that, if you are planing a purchase, please do it as soon as you can.

We plan to apply this price revision in 1-2 days.

We hope you understand as Exchange Rate fluctuations are unfortunately an issue that is beyond our control and has affected Robosavvy adversely during the financial crisis of the past 1.5 years.

Best Regards
Pedro

Hi all

We have now applied the new prices.

All in all for most items the price adjustment was kept around or under 3.5%.

Only Kondo items (which have JPY as the reference currency) suffered adjustments of about 5% as the JPY gained a lot of value.

We work continuously to try and protect our store and customers from the roller coaster that the currency market.
However in the last 3 months the GBP devaluated significantly and we were unable to avoid these adjustments.

We trust we were able to commit on reasonable ground.
