Everyone always forgets the chocolates! Don't forget the chocolates
20%? You haven't seen electricity bills here in ItalyPurchasing non used gear it’s more and more difficult . Everything jumped to 20% more. Not only fractal, everything. With luck there is a huge second hand market as people like to buy product and sell them one week after . I worked in a Music shop half of my life and I m very impressed how it increased… ten years ago, I was selling a usa std strat for 1180e . Now they are …1900 ! . At this price before you could get a vintage serie or signature or whatever. No seriously this is mad. The problem is that we aren’t paid 20% more . Riots are slowly coming like ever.

A bit off topic but just so you know, that’s not exactly how it works, you only owe taxes on your net income from the sales (not your gross sales). Unless of course you are turning a profit flipping gear, in which case you would have net income. See FAQ#4 from reverb’s post on 1099-K (can’t seem post the link)May not now that anything sold for more than $600 generates you a 1099 to pay income tax on here in the US…. As of January 1-2022
Receiving a 1099-K doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll pay income tax on your Reverb sales. For example, say a Reverber bought a guitar for $1,600 in 2019 and sold it for $1,000 in 2022. Reverb would still have to report the $1,000 payment on a 1099-K, but the seller would have no taxable income to report since the resale amount was less than the original purchase price.
Thats $600 COMBINED on all sales youve made, not just items over $600. Im cool with closing these tax loopholes but they better make corporations and billionaires actually pay too.May not now that anything sold for more than $600 generates you a 1099 to pay income tax on here in the US….

LOL. They are probably the ones who got the law written to hassle us little, unimportant people. Laws don't apply to them....Thats $600 COMBINED on all sales youve made, not just items over $600.

The chocolates sweeten the deal!
It's almost as if there is mass inflation worldwideIs that a typo on g66.eu?
3 and a half grand?
The problem is you have to save every damn piece of paper associated with any sales it becomes more burdensome than it’s worth just to take a loss in the end.A bit off topic but just so you know, that’s not exactly how it works, you only owe taxes on your net income from the sales (not your gross sales).

The helix LT goes up to 200/300 too.. I sold mine 600 some years ago (good luck to find one at 600 now). Same the kemper stuff is 200 more. The only good thing is that now, when I sold one of my piece of gear, I sold it more than I paid itFractal probably can't do much about the pricing considering a good chunk of it is out of their hands: VAT, value of the Euro tanking etc.
That said, the current pricing makes me happy that I got my current gen Fractal gear (Axe-Fx 3 Mk2, FC-12 and FM3) for a good chunk less.
The price of the competition in digital modelers hasn't gone up anywhere near as much at least yet based on Thomann's prices. The FC-12 alone costs almost as much as a Helix LT.
