    warp feed=still to expensive?

    Just a random thought while looking for a new replacement warp as individual parts are rather $ then factor in the shipping etc it can get pricey.

    I recalled buying a warp probly 2 years ago for around $58 from actionvillage

    i went looking at tunas site where they are $100~

    ok maybe the site hasnt been updated in a while like most(ptp) and others, so i head back to actionvillage, and they had a few however the price for all was $99~ except for the red which was still $62 which was more than i had spent 2years ago

    il be emailing tuna and hopefuly he has something cheaper but am i the only one that feels $100 for an aftermarket feed system that still requires another mechanism(hopper) feeding it?

    a qloader is also priced at a steep price of $120 for the smallest kitt but atleast you dont have to buy another hopper to ad to that. not to mention the extra cost in abtteries or initial investment in a good rechargeable.

    sure agd has the buy a warp body get a free warp promotion but that has long ended.

    It seems easy to say that interest has always been low, but could that partialy be due to the fact that cost is very high, and appeal is mediocre for most?

    is it time for a newer lower cost version?

    im hoping to post some pictual representations of possible solutions soon

    Check ebay every once in a while. I got 2 warps and a revvy for $60.

      I highly agree.

      That brings me to a question though, do AGD warps really only work with AGD guns?

        Thanks to the vibration sensor, they'll work with any marker.

          I was refering to the mounting hardware. I know functionally they can work with any gun.

                  Yes he does!



                  The warp bracket mounts to the same place your drop or bottomline ASA would/does. From my limited knowledge of all these new fangled electros and new Tippmans, I can't say that they'll fit all markers. They should fit any marker that accepts a standard drop or ASA.

                      If the Mini has a bolt on ASA, you should be able to modify the mounting plate to whatever setup it uses with a drill.

                        Itd take more than that since the part would need to seal due to air flow.

                          so does everyone think $100 is appropriate for a force feed system taht still relies and or requires a conventional agitated or force feed loader?

                          still seems like there is a gap in the alternative hopper/feed systems between cost/effectiveneess

                            $100 is the highest ive seen them at which is from Action Village. Luckily i bought the last red one and only payed 60 or so. Why one cost less than all the others which were the exact same is beyond me.

                              yeah you got the last one too

                              i shoulda juts bought that instead of nit picking, i emailed tuna and he said map was like $94

                              not sure if i have $ in the budjet for a new warp for a bit.

                              i just dont get how i could have got one for like $58 on avi like 3 years ago , and now theyr nearly 2x as expensive
