buying paint in bulk quantities?

[kryptik]

I'm a newb in paintball, been about 2 months since I've played, got my gear and started to worry about my financial status, lol. :D

Anyway, I like buying paint online because my local field charges like 2 times what I pay online. If I were to buy two cases of 2000 (RPS Premium, RPS Evil just for the record), shoot 500-700 rounds a week, would the paint go bad by the time I'm almost out? Or am I just being paranoid about random things I read on the 'net? (PBGear ships free over $100)

Thanks. :)

paintballs will go bad but it takes them a long time. If you keep them out of the sun at room temp. they will be fine

free from moisture rich enviornments aswell,bulk will save you serious cash

rotate the bags every so often,as in take em out,shift the paint around in the bags,this will keep flat spots to a minimum

keep the bags sealed,very important

out of the light ,away from heat/excessive cold


silca gel packs like the ones you find in shoe boxes,help keep the moisture away,throw a few in the box,not in the bags

Is that free shipping at Pb Gear for paint also?

[Bushmaster2k2]

Yes its is. Any order over $100, free shipping. Simple as that.

we buy multiple cases of evil when we do buy paint, we dont need to have it shipped though becuase we just pick it up from pbgear

oh cool, pbgear is based in IL, huh?
