3rd Party trading service
- Thread starter yorgie
- Start date
yeah, that's what i'm working on - the trust factor! I'm going to visit these forums more regularly, and try and get myself a bit better known, as well as using pbn and talkpaintball, and obviously trading via ebay, i hope this'll improve my chances of setting this service up sucessfully. I only came up with the idea, as well as being given it by a mod at pbn, but by doing some mail forwarding for a company - its £25 a package, recieving it, putting a new sticker on it, and giving it to the post office - so i'm at the post office quite a bit (every 3 days or so ) i just thought it'd be a good plan, during the summer break, anyway, thanks everyone for feedback etc, much appreciated 
This is great. I just find that the fact that your not even old enough to legally buy a paintball gun completely undermines the whole operation
Good effort....but it's not going to work though, for you anyway, on this forum, at this time.
Welcome though , maybe after a few years you will have the reputation to run this effectively should it be in demand.

I don't think just being on the boards for a few months will do it matey, I'm 18 & I've been playing 4 years; I think MAYBEEE, I would be trusted for this sort of thing; but even if the person trusted/knew me, there's plenty more people who are MUCH more well known than me, eg Tom Allen or Skeet, so why would they come to me (you're welcome to for free if you want to though).
Sorry I don't think there'll be enough of a market for this to make you any money whatsoever.
But good effort, good idea etc.
PS!! £150 a week is plenty enough to fund training, and the occasional tourney, try lasting half the year on £35 a week on a saturday job and playing once a fortnight, and STILL not spending money on ANYTHING else. If you're that committed try not 'socialising' ie drinking your money away.

... which is the exact reason that i was running this as a trial - a proposition, to see it's appeal - clearly not that much of an appeal - it was just an idea, to see how much people were worried about being ripped off, and loosing their marker etc, that's all ... just a concept - which will apparantly not work, which sucks, i guess someone else ought to have more success at it than me good luck to them, at least we can cut out dirty marker theives that way!
oh and on your edit - i've got to buy everything - clothes, training kit (rowing), save for a car, buy driving lessons, socialise (it's the summer, so i'll do this a like 3/4 times a week minimum), and generally get about - public transport and a pedal bike! excellent
