why won't you buy from action village?

note: i am biased because i work a couple miles from them and can drive over and pick up my stuff.

they ship incredibly slow(usps:rolleyes:) their prices are high and they go down to no sale prices at other stores when they go on sale(meaning a sale on something brings it down to a normal price at a majority of stores)
where is the best place to buy them?
www.xpaintball.com has some type of deal where if you buy a certain # of cases they give you a case of your choice i think

cheapest places?
not sure on the price but if it costs a tad more than it still would be cheaper because you get a free case at one point

long story, lets just say their customer service was horrible and it took over a month for them to just get what i ordered, it was long and they are the stupidest people to work with, i was soo pissed
anyways, i wont do business with them

ive bought some off a couple different sellers on ebay....

most dont gaurentee anything, but as far as broken balls... of the 5 cases i have got through ebay 3 had 1-2 broken balls 2 of them were fine....

it just depends how they were shipped and how gfar away the place is from you..... when i check out the listing one of the first things i look for is their local in relation to me.... i try really hard to stayh with the ones in the NE.... though there is one on teh west coast i may try only cuz i dont see anyone else with the same ballz.....

usally price wise i'm looking at a max of $50 a case after shipping (ok the BE ballz i got were 25 w/shipping but thats all they are worth) =) granted i sometimes can find it for 50 here in my area... but when it gets that low, god only knows how old they are

ive ordered paint from action village, 888, shop4paintball, and some place in florida. all came within a week, no broken balls, and the reason i bought the paint was because the kind of paint i was getting was cheapest at a certain place.

xpaintball is about 20 min away from me. so ive never ordered from them, but i have heard great things about how they ship paintballs....:)

Good call danism. I've ordered paint from them, they garentee that no paint will be broken when it gets to your house. Ground shipping only took 1 day, but i guess thats because i live really close to them.

I order mine from www.paintball-online.com, simply because they pricematch and then undercut pbgear.com by 5 percent. I shoot a lot of Anarchy, where else can you get Anarchy for 45 a case delivered. Cheapest prices in town. Never had a bad shipment with a total of 24 cases ordered.
