I've held off raising primer prices as long as I could, but recently prices on the 3 biggest components have have all gone up noticeably. This has forced a $0.10 per primer price increase to keep up with the increased overhead. I'm sorry to have to do this, but its been years since the last price increase and it couldn't be avoided. That being said, If you have already paid for an order but haven't received it yet or I have personally quoted you a price, I will honor it.

The friction primer business has been very good over the past few months. In that same time, I've also been very busy with the other elelments of the business, one of them being the new retail consumer fireworks business. These things combined with the already slow and tedious nature of making friction primers has resulted in longer wait times and more people contacting me to check up on their orders. I understand that we live in a society that expects to be able to order an item today and have it 2-3 days later, but thats not going to happen with frition primers. They are entirely hand made and very tedious, so please always allow plenty of lead time on primer orders and please dont harrass me with repeated emails checking up on an order you just placed a few days ago. I do my best to get orders out as quickly as possible, but its very common durring busy times to get back logged. Having to stop and answer this type of emails just slows things down more and causes me to develope negative feelings toward the senders, some to the point of refusing to accept future orders from them. I apologize for any inconvenience delays may cause, but its ultimatly your responsibility to not wait until the last minute to order.
