You can check out - http://www.paintballuk.com/phoenix/about.htm they dont stock the piranah pro ts but have other kits which are as good if not better and as a bonus I noticed your in the midlands so should be able to get to it as based in cannock.

Closed this week for xmas but will be open Sat 28th 10:30-4:00

so pop down and take a look

Well if your after stuff in the midlands theres only 2 places...Phonix paintball in Cannock & warped sports in wolverhampton.
Both are a bit out of the way.
what are you particularly after a marker?
i wouldn't bother with either a spyder or a pirahna.. when you get your hands on them they feel like they will break in your hand.
get yourself a decent starter marker like a tippmann or a inferno or if u gotta bit of cash 2 throw about... look on ebay & other sites for like mags and cockers.. you can get a 2nd hand mag 4 like £180

do some research before you flame markers:(
the pirahnas are brilliant for the money,way more features than an inferno and well built
spyders are well built as well (sport's excluded)
tippys are just plain uggly(and a pain to service)

4500psi is the pressure in the tank,co2 is 800psi
its dear because of the high quality the tanks have to be to hold that much preassure
if your not playing lot or not going to enter regular tourneys i would get c02
air is a lot cleaner than c02
c02 is fine for spyders:D
1000 ish shots on a 20 oz
