i have to rely on online sites for buying paintball equipment as i live in romford essex. and its a shame as there is no where around my area that sells paintball equipment apart from the little over priced shop at mayhem, and smart parts in bexley heath, which isnt really local for me.
i look on a lot of paintball web sites (uk) to see whats available what prices items are selling at ect. i just asked about gizmos because i had read negative comments about there service. and wanted to be sure weither to buy from them or not, reason being i was looking for a gun package for my nephew. and i found a very reasonable package. no other site i checked offerd the same deal or sold that marker on its own at the price they had it up for. i cant comment on gizmos as yet because i have never bought anything from there.
i must have about 20 uk paintball sites on my favorites that have the buy online option. i can honesly say i havent bought from all of them but the ones i have, have never given me any problems and always provied a good service.

the paintball shop (mayhem site).
maybe some of you have bought from these sites and can forward your comments.
i wish there was a paintball store in my area. it would be great to go into shop and have a proper look the product im buying instead of alway looking at it on a screen and or waiting for your items to be deliverd
im prob not the only one who would like a paintball shop in there area or where i am. theres prob loads of pantballers in essex who would love a store.
lots of sites but a small about of stores. my guessing its overheads rent ect.
or maybe i should look into opening one myself!(dream on! ) at least there wouldnt be no local competition.
well not where i live anyway.
thanks...
