The euro continues to rise against the dollar.
If you were looking at a tuba in Europe that cost 5500 euros in the middle of April and delayed buying it, that tuba would now cost you almost $500 more. Unbelievable.
I'm sure as American stores place orders at these new higher levels, tubas from European manufacturers will continue to go up in price over the next several months.
