Is it just me or did inflation hit musical instruments really hard over the last few years? (vlemmy.net)

I work for a large music retailer. The prices have increased on pretty much everything. Guitar and bass's are up around a hundred/two hundred dollars. Most pedals have gone up about fifty bucks or more. Even really low end PA speakers are about two hundred more. Noticed it happening around a year ago.

Wow that's insane. Hoping for some price cuts before I look into buying more gear then...

I would ask the employees for any coupons they might have. Where I work, each employee gets a 15% off coupon to give to anyone. They only get one per month. I'm not sure if other companies do the same.
