Interesting to see that the Flamingo London NX7 has gone up 50%+- in 6-7 years? How about the retail prices of Brompton etc? And is this due to...

1. foreign currency fluctuations?
2. inflation?
3. higher labour costs?
4. Tariffs?

My wages haven't gone up 50% in the same period.

Welcome to the world of capitalism . thats the way the game is run , for the benefit of the not little guy.

you need to get someone else to exploit .

5. Because they can.

By the way, EvilV's frame cracked, so did littlepixel's. Perhaps others also that I don't recall just now. Just saying.
