Price increase on all Gemstone / Tru-stone pen blanks

Our suppliers of Tru-Stone & Gemstone have **doubled** the price of the pen blanks “due to the increased compliancy issues with mining in the US, the ores that are used in the process of making the pen blanks have increased 80-100%” – the end result is a 100% increase in cost of the Gemstone / Tru-Stone pen blanks!

As a company we are looking for other more reasonable alternatives, but have not found them to date.  We apologize if this increase in price will cause any hardships, but we have no alternative but to raise our prices.

These Gemstone blanks are very beautiful and popular with customers, especially on the higher end pen kits like the Majestic and Cambridge lines. There’s a “WOW” factor to them that your customers can appreciate, just be sure to raise your pen prices to compensate for the additional cost.
