Paint Prices

Not what I was after at all
But it's good.
Actually, what I was curious about was a) price differentials from site to site and event or series and, b) events that require participants use their paint at their prices.
Don't care what everyone's "deal" is nor did I expect anyone to start divulging that sort of info.
Know I wouldn't.
For example, IAO has always required you purchase their paint. In the past that was ZAP at $90 a case and this year with Diablo Hellfire was $106.
But it's good.

Paul.
lol yeah I know that
!The event I'm on about wasn't bring your own.
The format was each team was allowed x amount of cases to use as they saw fit over the tournament.

Are you sure? I dont think you realise the economies of scale that certain large firms enjoy. I know how much it costs XXXXXXXXX to make a box of paint and believe me, the profit margin on a box of paint is unreal. I cant think of another product which is made so cheaply and sold for so much. The profit margins are so huge that free paint given to teams is nothing, just a minor marketing cost!
I am very much aware of the prices involved in paintball. That's why I don't agree with what you say.
And trust me when I say that I also know businesses that'll charge 25 pounds for something that costs 0.85 to make. Used to work for one.
