Aqua Computer wants to point out that they have to increase many prices at the start of the next year (1.1.2007).
The price of copper has raised more than 400% over the last years. Aluminum isn't much better, within the last weeks the price has gone up by 20%. Similar trends can be seen at brass (e.g. connectors), steel and plexiglas (due oil price).
Also electronic components became more expensive because Aqua Computer has to pay a contribution and an insurance for the recycling.
Last but not least the VAT will go up from 16% to 19% by 1.1.2007.
Since almost all Aqua Computer products are made of the mentioned materials and/or affected by the other things, it is necessary to adjust the prices. The price of some products may raise by 20%.
With this announcement Aqua Computer wants to inform you early before the changes will happen.
