No. Historically price rises have been applied only due higher base costs and subsequently announced with no correlation to the calendar year.

In another post it was interesting to see a 150mm Skywatcher refractors now approaching $10k.

With discretionary purchases it looks like prices are inflating at 10x the
"official rate" i.e. 10-20%

If you have insurance on your gear, you might want to re-assess what the
real cost of replacement is.....
