I have all my paintball gear down to one tote, and a gearbag. I pulled apart my paintball closet yesterday, pulled all the stuff in from the garage, and went through it all. I threw away two huge trash bags of old crap,,,,Jacko Pack anyone? lol, how about a set of non thermal Scott Badass lenses......a whole bag of old jersies, shirts, gloves, old pants, towels....it was rediculous the kind of things I was holding on to. I have barrel condoms for companies that have been out of business for the past 5-6 years, lol, just crazy.
This is the first time since right after starting that I actually only own two markers, and can actually get a grasp of what I have left invested in the sport. I can honestly say that I don't have a couple of thousand dollars just sitting in the closet unused anymore. Once I sell off a few select items, and find a donor for the six Scott masks I have left, I will be down to an honestly reasonable amount of gear for one player, and under 1K still invested.
After my Hurricane valve sells, I will only have a twistlock barrel that no one would buy, and my AO shirts to remind me of all that was Mag.......
