Parents!!!!
- Thread starter Disco ECI
- Start date
just go ahead and buy one!!! thats what i did for my fist gun.
i spent £250 on a mag (a long long time ago) my parents were p*ssed at first but the more i went on about how great it was and the more they saw how much fun i was having the better they got.
they dont care what i buy now (although i am 23 now!!!
)
if that dosnt work go for the killing option

My parents were sceptical about me purchasing my first setup, mainly because they thought it was a lot of money for something I did every couple of months.
So then I lied about the price
When I got my Viking brand new, I was starting to get into it more and playing more often so they started to justify it.
Now my parents know im very commited to playing and just take no notice, also because I have different stuff every couple of months so just cant keep up!
Although they do wish I spent more time doing uni work than fiddling with my kit!!
One thing that seems to work, get your parents to come see a couple of supair games, one of our team mates parents came to Campaign and were telling him how to improve and completely changed their tunes

ive got to agree. be warey of some people. i purchased an ion at campaign cup. the ions great but the dude sed he left a few bits at home ie manual, qev. he said hed send them out the following week. i still havent recieved them.
not saying thats everyone but be carefull. my first item bought off these forumns was a freak jr. i explained to the guy i wasnt confidant buying off the net arranged a deal with him. i sent him half the money. he sent me the barrell and when i got it and was totally happy with it id send him the rest of the cash.
worked great although had to pay for 2stamps
if its ur 1st setup id play it safe and buy from a local shop. that way uve got their back up until you learn more about gats. thats just my personal opionion though. mind you with 2nd hand gats atm you cant go wrong!
WOW, THAT WAS LOOONNNNGGG!!!!

My parents were less than happy: the marker prices increased quite quickly: £40 (a reeealy old pump), £75 (a spyder clone), £325 (vision impulse), £550 (05 Speed). umm kind of lied about the last two prices....and completely neglected to tell them about the subsequent £210 spent on Halo & preset
But its my own money I've got a job: its not like I had to borrow off them or anything so that kind of helped.
Just got to stop spending money!! Its eating into my driving lesson fund now
Note to anyone else: all the transactions I've had on here have been fine no problems, but I bought the 5peed direct from WDP as I thought it was a little too much money to send to someone I don't know.
Ive just been lucky I guess.
Try and buy from well known sellers (you can usually tell from a really high post number), like PaintballBudgie and people like that.
Only deal I've done in person was I sold an air bottle to you joeyarmstrong (have you tried it yet, is it ok?), done everything else over the internet. had no problems because i was careful.

I had a lot of trouble with my parents before when I had no money and they had to pay for my play, but now I've got a job theres no issue, and the harder I work the more I can play and the more kit I can buy so thats my motivation!

Just negotiated with the seller im sending 100£ then he sends the goods the when im happy with the quality im sending the other 550£, thanx to everyone for posting and giving me good ideas, the only trouble now is i have to spend 140£ on our next torney and a custom team jersey so i have to sadly eat into my driving lesson/ college fund as well, ah the life of paintball is expensive!

Hey stu, this happens to everyone.
But seriously, you think you can play paintball without a ****ing job?
How can you expect to play paintball off your parents money, you've gota earn it. The only way ive been making money for the past two years is doing a paper round.
So seriously, get a job you free loader!

PS - You know i love you really
