Another thread on AO about high gas prices got me wondering about how all of you pay for Air.

Does your field charge a flat rate per fill, or per 1000 PSI, or for all day fills. If other, please elaborate.

How does your field do CO2?

At Global Park in MA, you can either get an all day air pass or buy per 1500psi. I think there are two flat rates for CO2. 20 oz or under 20 oz.

Both of my local fields charge flat rates for all day fields. I'm in Tucson. Desert Fox charges $10 for all day fills. Sudden Impact charges $5 for all day fills.

Desert Fox has it rigged so that it's actually the same price to rent his equipment (pro-lites) as it is to bring your own. Those who rent for $25 get all day air and free field fee.

in the shops here its like $1/1000 psi for a 3k tank and 1.5/1000 psi for a 4.5k tank.
at one of the fields though air is free if you show up. The owner just wants people to play so he eats the cost. at least it's been that way since I started, i've been out for a few weeks so it may have changed.

Paintball Sam's in Racine WI (at least for the Big Games) $1/1k, rounded down for the most part. They are nice about it.

Adventure Zone in Minneapois is $1/1k.

Splatball Inc in Minneapolis is $2/1k.

20 bucks to get in, 99.99 for a case of crap PMI Premium ( :mad: ) and free air all day. It is kinda expensive. The refs all know me there, so they let me bring my own case which I get offline for 40 bucks shipped.

Man, you guys that list three or four different fields make me jealous. I'm in AZ and we have two here and I don't really care for the setup of one of them, and the other is FPO and charges way to much for crappy paint. I usually get a group of friends together and we go play in the desert. I usually fill from Scuba Bottles (we have two for the group).

Where I play (HudsonValleyPaintball) we charge $4 for any sized CO2 and I think it is something like $5 for Nitro, 3k at the feild and 3K and 4.5K in the store. We can only bring a tank capable of filling 3K tank to the field but we can fill 3K and 4.5K in the store. The reason is that the feild is not at the store (it would be kind of hard to play paintball in the middle of a busy street) so we travel to different feilds each sunday. My favorite place is a abandond cement factory, yes we have permission to be there. We are though in the process of building an actual field. I can't wait untill it is finished.

Why fields fill by the 1K psi is beyond me. It's NOT the same volume. I guess it pays to have a 114ci at those fields. The only public field I play at charges $5 for all day air.

Blind Seaman- Do you play at Weekend Warriors? Those are their prices on stuff and you're from McMinville, so I figured possibly you might be speaking about WW.
