site paint!...

[ChiZZerS]

everyone i know doesn't play paintball because they are always saying it is too expensive....

site paint is too expensive!... or is there a good reason for charging 5p per ball!
for me..that is rediculas!
and noone starts playing because it costs too much!
and we aint going anywhere fast if the prices dont drop..
if we want more people to play then we need to make it as cheep as possible for new-commers!


what do you guys think?

5p? thats cheap for site paint dude. Point blank (The site for Just Paintball) charged about 7p a ball last time I checked. I mean thats about £14 for a hopper full!!

Im sure this is been brought up before...
Basicly sites need to pay alot of money on renting land, insurance, maintaining kit etc. etc. the only real way they can make a profit (which i believe is quite small anyway) is by charging so much for paint.
