Jetboil price increase?

Jay H · Feb 14, 2008

Anybody else get the latest spring REI catalog and notice the Jetboil stoves are now $89?? I think I bought mine for $59 not too long ago... what's with the $30 increase? Just curious... is it because the MSR Reactor is like $139?

I think between the rise in gas prices and metals have also gone up a lot.

50% price increase though?

Maybe it was jetboil's plan to saturate the market as they were a new company at the time....

I do know that they have moved from a very small, barebones facility in western NH to something a bit more modern in Manchester. On the one hand, transportation costs would have decreased as where they were was tough. On the other hand, I am sure their rent is quite a bit more.
