Temp-tations prices (like everything else!) have been rising for quite awhile now. 

 

I don't buy much anymore, but it does seem that the quality of the painting and glazing is somewhat better than it was several years ago, so I guess that might be part of the cost, some improvement in the quality.

 

There seems to be fewer new things, and I'm surprised that very little Christmas/holiday things have been added for this year. They did a lot for fall, but so far, pretty slim pickin's for holiday this year.

 

I think the patterns are getting too 'whimsy' as well. Not enough things being released that are elegant or actually classic in style. Lately everything looks like it is designed for kids (in the winter/holiday lines).
