Hey all, wanted to give you a heads up on likely price increases. Over the years, as the cost of doing business has increased, I have not let those costs affect product prices. But when product prices increase due to excessive shipping and tariffs, adjustments will be made. This is a letter from one of my vendors, and someone who's been in the industry for decades. We all will do everything we can to keep prices fair and affordable! But we may have some challenges ahead in supply chain. Hang in there with us! Hopefully things will change!
To our valued customers,
As rising costs and global tariffs continue to affect our industry, we’re taking a closer look at our entire product catalog. Starting May 1, 2025, we’ll be implementing broader pricing updates.
Here’s what you need to know:
Tariff-related pricing adjustments will be applied to select products with a Country of Origin (COO) other than China. These updates reflect the global tariff environment and help us keep our supply chain stable and reliable.
For products made in China, we’re actively working on shifting sourcing to other countries to help reduce tariff exposure and avoid potential disruptions.
We strongly recommend that customers place orders now and not wait until the last minute to avoid being affected by the upcoming changes. We will be sending out more detailed information regarding the percentage increases as we continue to review the catalog and finalize our plans.
We’re keeping a close eye on the tariff situation and will continue to adjust our pricing as needed. We’re hopeful that things will smooth out soon and are ready to act quickly if and when they do.
We know how challenging this environment is—especially for small, independent retailers like you—trying to stay competitive while dealing with so much uncertainty. Please know that we’re here to support you. We’re committed to being open, transparent, and proactive with updates, and we’ll continue to work with you in any way we can, whether it’s helping you plan ahead, offering guidance, or just being available to answer questions.
We sincerely appreciate your continued partnership and thank you for all that you do.
Respectfully,
Your friends at The Beadsmith
