Surely these pods don't fare well on uneven ground? Can't see how they would adjust?

I'm pretty sure you'd just adjust the legs to be longer on the sloping side like you would with the super compact. Not that I'd want to use a pod on very uneven ground to be honest

The banksticks are all adjustable both ends. I like the look of it but am currently using 13ft rods and I like the butt rings behind the alarms. If they make an additional centre pole section to accommodate this I would be interested. Adjustable buzzbars and legs to give more distance between alarms would be better for me. I'm in a minority I know but I like a good gap between the rods. I know these changes would increase the costs.

Yes they are. They are running a special offer. If you ask for Simon and say “wayne says you have a micro penis” you'll receive a ten percent discount.

If I say he's got a massive penis do I get 20% discount?

No. You'll need to tell him that he IS a massive penis for that kind of discount.

You just losen the thumbscrew and drop the bankstick down to the desired height, takes seconds.

I have a 316 Compact and a Micro pod, cant fault the products, well made, look the part and do what they should.

That said the current price points are taking the piss. Jim was on here years back, everyone's friend back then when starting out but things change, seen him on here much lately?

I know raw material costs have risen not to mention all the money he now outlays on marketing etc, look at Companies House and see the changes in company structure, a company within a company that's turned from a hobby into a serious stand alone money making machine, at these prices it's difficult not to be.

Material costs by weight are nowhere near the RRP, factor in that a lot of the parts are CNC'd and mass produced labour costs wont be high. Never mind that most overheads, lighting, heating etc will be covered by the parent company JAG are well and truly pulling your pants down.

For comparison look at Defiants prices, a one man band without JAG's buying power, that should open a few eyes.

How is he pulling your pants down im confused? Is he forcing you to buy his products? If you don't like don't buy simples really. Their craftsmanship is next to none and their stuff is built to last. My 316 adjustable is almost 5 years old and still looks and works like new. Plus their customer service is top notch. The pod is only worth what people are willing to pay for it and looking online most stockists already sold out lol

Absolute horse s**t. So Jim doesn't use this forum much these days and so somehow that makes him a bad person. Really? Are you serious? Have you spent much time in his company? Or any of the other staff? Don't you think that he might be a bit busy?

So come on then seeing as you know so much about the inner workings of the business enough to come on here and slag people off, how many staff does it employ? Name me a few, and their roles. You're happy enough to be slagging my mates off saying their pulling peoples pants down so let's see how well you know them

I take it you've been to the factory then? You know it's layout well enough to comment on the heating and the lighting and what machines are there and who runs them and all the other stuff they produce?

Honestly there's some s**t posted on this forum sometimes, a lot of it by me I must admit, but considering we are only in Feb this has got to be a contender for bulls##t post of the month.
