EMG buy into Tigerz11 & Roo Systems
« on: July 05, 2012, 09:19:20 PM »
Was just reading on Facebook that EMG have announced they've take a financial interest in both of these companies. Some long term advertisers are planning to pull out due to the perception of direct competition from the publisher.

Its funny, there was an email sent out to all advertisers a bit back (probably the same on stalkerbook),


I found this bit interesting...
As promised, in response to industry feedback, we stopped publishing product “comparos” in the magazine last year.

Even some of the advertisers are confused by it.. surely they arent going to promote someone elses kit over their own...

Amazing thing is a couple of months ago I needed more space on the shelves for wife's uni books so I took out all their mags to throw out, just another good reason to burn baby burn

they are now sitting in the garage on their way to the rubbish bin, or next bon fire - I mean agricultural burn ;D

Good by issue 38 to 174

Brilliant way to start to appreciate the finer things in life- a.k.a. the great outdoors with a 2 inch lift - lol.

I sold about ten years worth on ebay for twenty bucks. Two months worth. At least somebody else got their monies worth.
