For All Your Grip Needs

At IMAO.com, there used to be a Japanese manufacturer of grips and handles. I don’t know what happened to it, but now IMAO.com is some weird site made to get traffic by people who are meaning to come here but put the “.com” instead of the “.us” after IMAO. Whoever bought that URL had to bid for it with like forty others; kinda flattering actually.
Anyway, apparently other people are looking for the Japanese company IMAO, because we sometimes get e-mails like this:

I have an item to be listed in our internal catalog.
Can you please verify that the following item information is correct?
Manufacturer name Part # Description
IMAO PG90N-15 Grip
Please advise
Thank-You

So I responded:

These are our only products with grips:

Also in larger versions based on your needs:

Maybe I can make a sale.
BTW, the person looking for IMAO grips probably ran into the phoney site we set up in 2005 as an April Fools joke (it replaced the regular IMAO main page for most of the day). You can still see that here (make sure to check out its FAQ).

  1. Dear sales Rep;
    I’m filming a feature length movie. Is this where I would find grips, and, in particular, the all important key grip? It’s my understanding that no movie is able to be filmed without these vital peices of equipment, and I’m on a tight schedule. Please send me a catalog, and maybe some sample grips, so I may learn what a grip is. Do key grips come with any accessories I might need?
    Thank you,
    Alan Smithy
