Slug Bodies ... well, never mind.

[Resurection]

and I thought I was bitter about the resale of Devilmags... this guy makes me look saintly.

[Stealth Fighter]

Was it? A guy who claims to be a supporter of the community goes and buys all remaining slugs so he can up their price and resell them to the highest bidder? He has no intention of creating a new design for the market, nor does he intend to create something for himself. Meanwhile, you've got lots of folks (mostly kids) who were hoping to just get one so they could get their dream creation made and play happily ever after. No, you're right - Tuna IS cool! Really, how pathetic is that? I mean, how much does he think he's going to make? A hundred at best? Is he that hard-up? It's like stealing candy from baby.

And no, I'm not bitter. I have a slug, and I had one made into the design I wanted. I just wish more people could have the opportunity to do the same, instead of being gauged by dealer a-holes.

He'll get his in the end, anyway. How many customers do you think there's going to be for new mags in the next year? And after that? Tuna's going to be bagging groceries before the decade's over.

WOAH!! Didn't see that coming, I can feel the hate.

I wouldnt call that being a jerk, just smart business. And your statement is indiciative of the "AO spirit" Ive seen lately.

If Tuna didnt snatch them up, I likely would have. That's the way capitalism works. Yes, dealers are here to make money.

Tuna just does it will providing a valuable service to AO'ers that few others do. Anyone who thinks that "slapping together off-the-shelf parts" is what he does, or is easy, should try it sometime.

So let's get off this high-horse, and get real. Tuna isnt a philanthropist, he is in it to make money. He cant pay his bills with "AO Spirit".

Well said.

if you really want a slug... go make one... Tom gave away the CAD drawings forever ago. they're in the Tech section to download.

You know something little boy? It is really none of your business what I buy and when I buy it. If you wanted one/needed one you could have just asked. But no. You insist on spewing feces from your mouth. Your intelligence really shows. And I will let you in on a little secret. The slug bodies have been out for 2 yrs or so now and nobody bought them so they were discontinued. And the ENTIRE batch of all FOUR slugs I bought is NOT the last of them. It seems evident that you don't have a clue about what you are talking about. I suggest you stop mumbling before you embarrass yourself even more. And as for selling Mags next year...well if it is 1/2 as good as this year I'll have enough money to buy ALL the rest of the slugs...and maybe even enough to buy the machinery to make my own. And about the groceries. You are right. I did bag groceries long before you were even a twinkle in your old mans' eye. I was actually considering giving these slugs away. What a shame for you eh? Try thinking before you talk. And if all of us dealers are "A-Holes", what does that make you? Grow up young man. Welcome to the real world. And you were right about one thing. I will get mine in the end. I worked hard for it and i deserve it. Sorry you feel the way you do.

Tunaman, if you do decide to sell them, I am sure there are plenty of AOers who would be happy to pay whatever price you were looking for. If you decide to give them away, I'm sure there are plenty of AOers who would love one. And Magglerock... you are a complete idiot.

Have a nice day!

[st6212]

If I can find someone to mill a slug for me, I will definitely take one off Tuna's hands. I've contacted DW to get one cut in the Karta body. But no response yet

So hold one for me as long as you can, Tuna! LOL

[Duzzy]

Oooh... An Aussie. I just took a Final in Aussie Lit today. Some good stuff in there. Some absolute junk as well but that is another time and a different post.

Magglerock, you just got blasted by Rogue, Tunaman, and Luke . Smartest move I've ever seen anyone make on AO . I suggest you run away now...

/good luck ever building another mag...

OOOOoooooOOOOOO, PICK ME! PICK ME!

Best of luck with' em Tunaman, if you could do custom milling for people, like they design, you mill them, I bet you could make a killing that way.
