“To all our Eclipse dealers,
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Since the end of 08, the ‘British Sterling - USD - Euro’ exchange rates have been in turmoil, the GBP has lost 40% of its value against the dollar and 20% against the Euro !
Planet Eclipse has tried its best to avoid having to change its pricing over the last 6 months, taking the currency loss and just getting on with the job as best as possible, hoping the world will sort itself out and get back to the ‘normal’ exchange rates that we have experienced over the past few years.
Unfortunately this doesn’t seem to be happening and we now need to make some radical price changes to avoid making further losses on the exchange rates.
So like I said, I am sorry that we have had to make this announcement, it’s not good for any of us, but the exchange rates are completely out of our control !
Effective immediately we will have to raise our Sterling prices by 30% and our Euro prices by 10%.
Maybe, when the powers at be have stopped giving away all our tax payer billions to prop up the banks, then things will return to normal !
Thank you all for your support and custom.
Thanks,
Tom Rust
Sales Manager
Planet Eclipse Ltd”
