Well after about a year of ballin, and putting about 1.2k in my gear and markers alone, I got sick of the pricetag. So I am getting a phantom, selling everything else. I really just got sick of trying to convince myself that the 1.2k I put into paintball was justafied. I'm not a tourny player, don't really want to be right now, and if I do, I'm not gonna get some setup that cost lots of $, for all I know it might be a spyder, mag(ule, logic frame, etc), or an omen, all with nitro, good barrel, and an egg. Well thats my plan, sound good?

I don't usually like these types of plans. You say you have 1.2k worth of gear,resale on that should be half,if your lucky.

So you've lost $600 to save money.

Get the Pump if you like to play Pump,but not because it's a 'good deal'.

Pump is a blast by the way,even better when it's all pumps on the field.

Nah I know I can get about 900-1k back, since most of it was bought used, in good condition, and for a cheap price. And thats part of the reason I'm selling it all, because it all has a good resale and I'm making most of what I spent back. Aside from that is there any bad parts if this plan?

You'll still have those days you wish for a semi-auto marker. Maybe you should look for a cheaper 68 classic to run as a backup?

Thanks for the links buddy.

On a side not it looks like I will play for awhile and pic up a semi when I come across one that I must have or is a really good deal. But for now, goodbye everything. And now to pic up a few stock accesories and a new mask.
