I hope John is only kidding, as I sold food to restaurants for 20 years. As cost go up to a business, they have to raise prices, as they will go out of business them selves.
Bill is doing the right thing to keep himself in business. Will it hurt his sales, maybe. Maybe not. But he needs to make enough to cover his cost and make a profit for him self too as he has his own cost of living like all of us. But Bill has unique items and I am sure things will be fine in the end for all of us. Not trying to turn this into Business 101, but in respect to S scale trains, B.T. S. has really nice items, as I have his American Flag Co, boxes, spools, instrument house, and fine product and worth every penny of a price increase in my opinion.

Howdy Friends Just to give you a bit of advance notice.... over the next couple of months we will be raising prices on most of our S Scale kits. Raw materials prices have gone up several times over the last few years, and we can no longer absorb the increases. So for you folks always looking for a discount or price break, order now and save about 10% !!!!
