    Default Is it just me or is LI more expensive now?

    I was on the LI USA website and took a look at the price for a two head system and it is now $700. What happened? I remember that it was cheaper like three weeks ago. I remember the two head system was $650 and now is $700 and the quad head was $1175 and now is $1225. Why the price increase?

    Yes, I think that the price has marched upward a bit, but have you priced a Blinder M45 - adding a can of VEIL - or dual-head LPP, lately?

    I think that it's still quite within reason, particularly as now we have an established point-of-contact for service, upgrades, etc., and the pricing definitively includes shipping, which was not something that was always so solid , before.

    And given that now the transaction doesn't need to be in actual cash currency.....

    I think I'll take the current option.

    That is news to me, I think it has to do with capitalism and the GOL results.

    That's what I was thinking, basically the GOL results did such a good job demonstrating the the LI works so good that they said hell lets raise prices.

    Yes a 4 head blinder is $679 plus a can of veil $90 that adds up to $769. That's $456 cheaper than just the LI quad head.

    the dual head LPP is $770 plus a can of veil at $90 that's $860. About $365 cheaper than the LI quad.

    We are not talking about $100 difference. we are talking about multiple hundreds of dollars.

    I feel you get a 4 head Blinder and Veil and for most people you will be fine.

    Yeah, it comes out a few bucks cheaper that way, and I suspect the performance would be neck and neck with -- if not better than -- the LI. But, as some have noted, not everybody has room for four heads on their vehicle.

    Those prices depend on who you buy from.

    Actually it has nothing to do with the GOL 08 results or JTG but more to do with fairness to existing LI users ($650 + $50) wishing to upgrade to a TruSpeed CPU paying the same price as new LI Users who will be receiving TruSpeed enabled LIs ($700).
