    DOH!! Shoulda used that credit card

    So some may remember my post s few days ago about wanting to get a new RT made from AGD. The total cost was about 465. I went to AGD just now, and the cost of the stock RT went up, about $37! And now, instead of being $465, the same thing (exactly the same) is about $490.00! Man i shoulda just used that credit card and purchased it last week. Woulda saved myself money!

      Yeah, AGD in all honesty is kind of a rip off. LOL don't ban me now.

        Yea, i meant the cost of just a bone stock RT went from 375 to 412.00. Which is only 37.00 increase, but one nonetheless.

        I have been lurking around MagSmith but they are listed as all out of stock. I dont know about Tunaman. Still, its disappointing that the prices went up.

          AGD charges retail prices while the distributers (themagsmith and tunaman) charge less. It's not a rip-off, just how most businesses operate.

          Oh, I highly recommend contacting tunaman if themagsmith is out of stock, he'll most definitely treat you right

            Most companies do charge more factory direct, for if they undercut the retailers, it would cost them business. If the retailer loses business because you undercut them, they drop your product.

              Keep an eye out!

              Im not quite ready to buy yet. The want is there, but i must decide on what will come of my other two markers first. Though an RT will certainly be my next purchase, im just not sure if thats when i have the financial ability to buy one outright, or, sooner by selling my Classic and A5. I do keep checking back...dont worry.

              There is one...seemingly minor....thing though. I really want a Green ULE body, instead of all black. I know i know...its kinda silly, but if im buying new i want exactly what i want. Is that doable?

                    When I have to special order an item, I charge full retail. ULE body MSRP is $145. A standard black ULE body is ~$122(my price). So, youll be paying an extra $23 for the custom colored body.

                    There is also the custom build fee of $20. Normally, Paradigm's are assembled in bulk, which is why I can charge less for them. To custom build you one to yoru specs means it cant be "bulk assembled".

                    So, as long as you are willing to pay the extra $43 to have the body color green, its doable. That is, of course, if AGD has green ULE bodies in stock.

                    Let me know!

                    You can have any color.

                    Just so long as its black.

                    I will let you know indeed. The more i look...the more i want. But again, financially, im not quite ready yet. Although, if someone wants to offer me $550.00 for a Classic Mag, warp feed and a SpecOps a5-SD..........
