SUMMARY

The prices of Executive cookware in Canada have significantly increased, with specific items like the 10" Saute Pan rising from $100 to $120, and the 12-qt. Stockpot increasing from $250 to $275. This price hike has made it more challenging for sellers to market the cookware, as potential buyers express discomfort with the elevated costs.

Has everyone noticed how much our Executive cookware has gone up??

A couple of $ here and there isn't too bad but I think this is to much!:mad:


10" Saute Pan $100.00 now $120.00

12 Skillet $165.00 now $188.00

12-qt. Stockpot $250.00 now $275.00

7-Piece Set $495.00 now $560.00

I have trouble selling our cookware because of the price already, now it has just become a little harder.

I love our cookware, take it to every show and talk about it to everyone I know. People always cringe at the price:rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
US prices have gone up substantially too.

I've used it to get some catalog shows in Feb - calling and emailing people who I know love cookware, and letting them know that with a $150 catalog show, they can get cookware they love for 60% off - and that it's going up in price in MAR.
I guess it will just be a big booking tool - have a show to get it for half-price!
 
I hear ya Rennea! I do pretty good with Cookware sales - but I think the increase is kind of a big jump.... :confused:
