I was at a paintball store today and I saw some dude drop $2500-$3000 on gear...everything you can think of. Ridiculous! I bet he quits playing next month. This is what the store owner must be like and that was me I know envy is a sin but that was nuts.

Don't hate the playa.. Hate the game... err wait.... That's not right either

Let's hope he stays in the game to make his expenditure worth it.

Hey, if you can afford it, do it! After adding it up I spent around $1165 last month on paintball...

The worst part for me is that I know I could spend $3k on paintball goodies and there would be a ton of stuff that I would still like to pick up.

On a specific marker or cumulative over the years?

On my Mini I spent about 250 but most of that was on a deadlywind barrel and SS insert kit.

My X7 was probably more than a 1,000 because I couldn't decide if I like the egrip or the response trigger better and then I boiught a barrel and an apex tip and a heavy mag and a stock and a flashlight and a blah blah blah.

I've also bought gloves, cleats, pants, jersey, masks, tanks, oring kits, a cup , and many other small miscellaneous parts and pieces. And I'm still not done!
