Will the price of Emags go down...

[Spray Painter]

does anyone know if the price of emags will go down when the extremes come out?

[Hemlock86]

That would be awesome if they did, because if they dropped somewhere in the $700ish range, I'll buy one tomorrow! I cant afford one right now, and I have a perfectly working 68 classic that works just fine for now.

I payed right now 400$ for my E-mag... used. I'm getting ready to send it in to have it reanodized cause it has some very bad scratches.I'll let ya'll know what it looks like when finished and what I spent on it. But I'm already eyeballing emagnum boards and have a lead on a L10 kit :)

Dunno, but I bet I can get this gun in mint condition with some custom ame and milling for less then a new E-mag?

It's already gota minimag body fitted to it

[Hemlock86]

Wow!!!

$400. for a use Emag, I would definately buy that, at the drop of a hat for that price!!!!!!! You got a good deal Heat! Good luck with it.

Peace

I see deals like that about every month... but you gotta have a little money to invest. I actually payed 900$ for the whole package, sold the freak, sold the boomie, sold the warp, sold abuncha stuff .. upgraded and sold stuff and that was my finally price about 3 weeks later

[Hemlock86]

Ahhh, makes sense. Hmmm, maybe I should do the same. Did you sell all the extras on the trade forum? I would love an Emag, but cant afford the $900. new price tag right now (or for a long time).

peace

yup, The old body that was damaged was also sold,, everything went and I still have more to sell, I'm just not pushing it ... YET.

But think about it... buy it on credit card off E-bay or something, and sell the accessories and pay the credit card back.. you don't even need the capital, just buy on credit and pay it on the next statement. It worked really well for me.

I got in hte package:
1 e-mag - I'm KEEPING
1 Dye boomie - SOLD
1 case and freak inserts only - SOLD
1 x-board revvy - I'm KEEPING
1 warp - SOLD
1 stock barrel - SOLD
1 shocktech drop - I'm KEEPING
1 THOR reg - STILL FOR SALE
1 centerflag 301 - STILL FOR SALE
1 pair of jt gloves, the ones with the flames - I'm KEEPING ( never used gloves before ..so I wanna see how they do
1 be 4 pod pack - Dunno what I'm gonna do with this... camp fire starter?
4 dye quick slam pods - I'm KEEPING
1 quick slam collar - I'm KEEPING
1 reds barrel condom - I'm KEEPING


And I had laying around

1 retro valve - SOLD
1 BOA barrel - STILL FOR SALE
1 pre BE revy - SOLD
1 minimag body - had to replace stock E-mag body and SOLD

Just to give you an idea what you need to look for. That tank is a super nice tank, but I can't move it. So be careful on the tank if you buy a package, only buy adjustables. Presets no matter what the msrp sell for less then 50% of store prices. It's a high flowing tank and and I'm currently using it on the mag.. cause I can't buy a new one till I sell this one so it's not a compleat loss...

Thanks for the tips bro, I might have to do what you did.

[FeelTheRT]

the retail price might not neccesarily drop down, however the resales rate of Mags will defently drop way low once the C&Cs come out.

[cphilip]

Well you know I think they will be upgraded and stay the same price. Much like the way the RT Pro went with the addition of the Intelliframe on it and kept it the same price.

In the case of the Emag is see the addition of the ULE Grip and ULE Frame and on top of that lvl 10 as stock. This would probably lean towards a lighter antichop stock Emag that would allow it to retain its current price. And at that it would be a real value.

Thats my guess on it.
