Also we had to replace tickets all the time.
I approached the MD with Hand written swing tags - we spent hours a day producing price tickets for stuff.
The vat changes, fluctuating strength of the pound vs dollar, costs of fuel affecting delivery charges (at one point we paid £5 a guitar on Fender and £8 a guitar on Epiphone/Gibson) it was fecking soul destroying.
The MD said ‘no - it’ll look crap’
All the big companies took turns upping prices, eventually, the store manager just used to spend days on end typing new prices onto tickets.
