They charged extra for extras when I got my current skates, which was 6 years ago. Back then, the base price was $545. I believe I paid $65 for the extras - $30 for lambswool tongues, $20 for flex notches, and $15 for a rolled top. At some point, I guess they decided to raise the price but then include extras again (I think they started out including extras for free, right?). I think $649 was the all-inclusive price when I called them in Dec? So not only will I pay more, the extras will cost more than they did, so my total charge would be $739, plus $20 for shipping. So instead of paying $630 total like last time, I'll now pay $760. Grrr. I'm thrilled Klingbeil is still in business, but at those prices, it's going to be harder for potential customers to justify the purchase.....even Harlick customs are cheaper than that.
