"Polymaker will implement a 10% price increase on product MSRP. This adjustment is in response to the significant increase in tariffs on foreign import, which has affected many sectors, including 3D printing materials."

FYI for #3dprinting enthusiasts. The tariffs will definitely be affecting our hobby as well.
