I helped these guys develop the coilovers and I'll vouch for them any day - extremely willing to work with you and make awesome products. I'll be getting these sets from them in the near future.

I don't know where you guys are coming from, but $1500 for a set of full, bolt-in coil-overs is not bad.
Consider that just the GC coil-over sleeve kit for the fronts goes for $350. Then figure in the cost of the only other option for the rears (RE-Speed, which aren't true coil-overs anyway), and then add in the cost of front and rear adjustable shocks, and you're easily matching that price, if not going over it. Then figure in the time to remove the front shock perches and have the new ones welded on (or paying for someone to do it for you). Of course, the figure on refinishing the front spindles because it won't do to have rusty spindles.
If I hadn't already taken the plunge on GC fronts and standard Bilsteins and lowering springs on the back, I'd consider this. My only question is about the shock they chose for the rears. Apparently some people love them and others hate them. I have no experience with AGX myself, so I can't comment, but I would have liked shocks that are re-valvable.

Fungus,
I agree fully, I mean FC guys drop 2k+ for Tein, ect. so 1500 aint that bad. Much like you I have heard both good and bad for the AGX but, more so good, re-valveable would be nice, I'll have to find it but I did a budget for suspension using all re-speed and came out just over 1600 before bushings. I think the price is great, I just gotta save for um first.

The price is good for a set of coil-overs, so good it will break my bank lol. I havn't done anything to my suspension (besides new struts and lowering springs) so i will put money aside until i can afford them, unless respeed's setup is better.

See that is my problem lol, so as a stop gap I'm tossing in some cheap shocks and save for this, ATM I have more pressing issues, and not to speek ill of them as my transaction went well but, it seems that at this time RE-SPEED is having some customer service issues, check out the tread in the good guy bad guy section.
