Question on yearly Bennington price increase

[TexBoater]

Dealer I'm working with in Texas gave me short notice in late June that effective the next couple of days Bennington prices were increased 5%. I think it was June 28 or so. My plans were to order and not buy inventory and it caught me by surprise. Is this correct? Did Their prices go up 5% late June. Or is this just a dealer's pitch? Thanks........

I just re-built mine on the build site ,it looks like they did go up ,but it doesn't look like 5% .

There also was an increase last winter/spring ,don't recall exactly when

Prices must be based on the wholesale cost of recycled beer cans.  I wonder how many recycled drink cans go into one average Bennington?

I'd hate to see what their aluminum sheeting bill is per month.
