    AGD Promotional failure

    So the other day I get the new catalog from action sports
    and there is a whole page of Spyder junk,full page of Tippman,2 pages of Dye,and then 1 small corner with an E-MAG with some ugly red body.
    Well come on, why dosnt AGD show the world some of there stuff,where is the X-MAG and other AGD products?
    No wonder AGD is fading away into memory.
    Some one there needs to promote AGD better.
    Ill always love my mag, but now I see why no one uses them anymore.

    show me a picture of this "ugly" red body. Also isn't AGD busy enough producing for us here AO? We are a picky bunch, but then again you might be right.

      Action Sports? I guess they just using old stuff in their catalogs. Sorry to hear that. If they wanted to sell them they got access to more current stuff to use. Catalogs normaly are self promoting for the vendor and content is what the seller wants to push not what the manufacturer wants. It's not so much advertising by AGD in that case. It's more what the Seller has to push to sell.


      AGD, where we are so good we can do it with only ONE tube!

        It would be a little unwise to promote a product over which they have no control in the supply of (AGDE makes and owns the rights to the X-Mag)...hey everyone who got the same catalogue as you rings up to buy one and they get told "mmmm ok 9-12 month wait" that'll make people want to buy from AGD.

                The Emag pictured there is a Red ULE Emag - Looks really good actually. It had the red ULE body & X-Valve. Not sure what Silent is talking about, last time I checked the ULE's weren't ugly at all...

                  man

                  i love that red body, and the reason they didnt show their nice flashy XMag is because they don't have any. i also highly doubt that PBG will be getting any in any time soon. it is easier to not advertise for something you don't have then advertise for something you dont have and then tell everyone you don't have them in stock.

                  Edit: I am stupid, I didn't read the posts before, so what MarkM said about the XMag.

                    dude if that was the pic, than silent is NUTS

                    that setup is a very nice example of AGD's products

                        And thats whats wrong, thats where AGD fails. They market to people that already know there product. These "banners" are doing absolutly no good here, they need to be on other sites.
                        Those "banners" would look cool as magazine ads or in pbgears catalogs.

                              Think of it the other way, when was the last time AGD was represented like that in a pbgear catalog?
