[ARCHIVED THREAD] - These are black, right? (Page 1 of 2)
Posted: 1/7/2016 9:19:40 PM EDT
But seriously, is there any way a reasonable person could mistake these for black mags or possibly some other color? MAG-571FDE were ordered and received.
Emails: A: "Seriously You or your company needs to get a hold of me by email and send me a prepaid mailing slip so I can return the mags that you sent me in the wrong color , and when you receive them they can credit back my account please. Phone : Email :" B: "Which color did you receive? I will get a new label sent out shortly. Thank you." A: "I got they tan ones , i don't even know any of my club friends who have a AR with tan accents or I'd sell them to them , so I need to send them back and then you send me the black ones front rivet " |

How do some of these people even feed themselves ? ? ? |

They probably think they're black because they're used to seeing cell phone pics taken with shitty lighting.

Lately, it's been a couple times every day for me. It's about time to add a 20% stupid tax on everything and give 20% off coupons to known customers or something. And it's always the lowest spenders, guy spent under $50. Never had an issue with anyone that spent over a few hundred, ever. |

"I got they tan ones , i don't even know any of my club friends who have a AR with tan accents or I'd sell them to them.... My gosh! My gosh!...I think the tan look so marvelous with those strong, black rifles. Simply marvelous! Oh my golly the color offsets are just to die for! Keep those little tan ones you stud muffin. Fuck me. This community gets weirder by the day.... |

So you're surprised at how stupid the general public is? Have you been living under a rock your whole life? Is this your first job? Simply offer a return or exchange. Simple customer service. It's nothing new and certainly nothing to complain about on the internet. Your life will be much better when you stop letting insignificant nothings impact your emotional state. |

Everyone's monitor has slightly different settings for color, contrast, etc. We really have no idea how they are displaying on yours, his, or anyone else's. Then add in the many varieties of color blindness for added fun. 
(Yes, they look FDE on my monitor, but with very poor contrast). |

I hear ya, I have people READ the product description back to me - Every line in the form of a question. THEN Order the wrong thing 
Here's how they phone call from your ad will go Caller: Are these Magpul Pmags? Seller; Yes It says FDE, what does that mean? Seller: FDE is Flat Dark Earth, it is a tan color, some people call it desert tan Caller; So they aren't Black? Seller; NO FDE Caller;are these windowed mags? Seller; NO Caller; OK, say's there is a rivet what is that for? Seller; the rivet limits the amount of rounds in the mag making it legal in states that have a limit Caller; So it only holds 10 rounds? Seller; YES Caller OK, I'll place my order soon Then orders this exact mag, then complains because it's not Black, no window, only holds 10 rounds, and he Wanted a TROY mag this is no exaggeration

Quoted: Yea, he wants the seller to pay return shipping, as it's clearly the sellers fault because pictures and feels. Quoted: Quoted: Send them to me and I'll send you black ones. Problem solved. Yea, he wants the seller to pay return shipping, as it's clearly the sellers fault because pictures and feels. I know, I know, the ad reads FDE and the buyer is a fucktard but it might save you a few headaches |

I was only an accountant for a year, and I never dealt with shit like that. But yea, I'm actually curious if there is something that I may be missing. Sometimes I take the test to see if I'm going color bind, I get several "pick me out the deepest, darkest red XYZ you got, then they get it and WTF, this is light orange!" Trying to describe the shade of red of wood stocks and bakelite is the worst.
And B's most recent response: "You are going to loose out on a ton of money to hex mag , we are light up all the blogs and review sites about this and by the way you just lost all of CT with connections I have . Two gun clubs I frequent a lot one has a two hundred yard rifle range that I give lessons on and that people always ask what product to get HEXMAG HEXMAG HEXMAG " |

Pictures kinda suck in my opinion. Looks like a newspaper photo from 1971. The question isn't whether they suck, whether they look like they could be black or something. They're actually meant to look like they were taken by the same guy that responds to emails, boxes shit up, buys the inventory, and pins the mags. The pictures have sold a hundred thousand pmags, anyways. |

Honestly, on my phone they look black at first. It messes with my eyes unless I zoom in. If I were you I would take a picture of it on a contrasting background. I know, I know, the ad reads FDE and the buyer is a fucktard but it might save you a few headaches Quoted:

Everything is on a tan background, so that would make them standout funny compared to everything else. |

Why? People are tards. The more clarity, the better. Edit: It's either an FDE mag on a tan background or a black mag and lighter color background with a tan color filter. I assume the former, tards may not. |

Judging only from the poor quality picture, and either fail to read the description, or just don't understand it, they could be considered to be black. Sounds like his problem now though unless you gave some kind of satisfaction guarantee. |

Out of curiosity, what color does this show up as: http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc195/jestice75/black_zpsonbsnjz9.jpg That looks black. Your FDE one looks washed out and hazy. The one with magazine and bag looks tan because there is a contrasting color that the viewer can reference off of. If the color of your subject and the color of the background is the same, then the perception of color is diminished. |
