From the first time i dipped in to my pocket to buy that first mask to now i have spent about £1000 or more, Now i have only been buying my own stuff for about 5 months, but have been playing for 5 years...but i know some of you have been playing a lot longer.

How much would you say you have spent on paintballing from day one...

inc: guns/masks/paint/tickets, Anything you have payed for?
