There's been a shift in the amount of components that are being added here in the USA and the decline in the Rand also means the purchasing power for "ingredients" is also lower.

As with all previous price changes there will be enhancements that balance the delta.

From what I can tell the price increases have been happening with other manufacturers for 2 years while Backdraft has held.
