Store overfilling CO2 tanks?

[TheSaint]

Why is it that I get all the co 2 tanks with the burst disk blown on brand new tanks?
Lately I have had a over flow of co2 tanks that people tell me that a shop in near philly
(who i still have no idea who it is?iwas told they have no sign yet )
they over fill the tanks at say the tanks is defective and to send the tank back
and to top that off they let the customer FILL TANKS!!!
WTF!!!!
Is this shop any good ? that safety isnt a concern!

Dont they know HOW to fill co2? and that it is a burst disk not the tank duh!
and what if they get HPA oh my god I dont even want to think about that!
Also i was told by many many people that they ride around and shoot the signs up and other things as well. you know for fun . this is why we get a bad rap and for a shop to be telling people that they do it what a bunch of LOOSERS!

I DONT KNOW WHO IT IS BUT WTF ARE YOU DOING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope its not anyone I know .

How about using a descriptive thread title next time?

They're sending tanks back to you, meaning you sell them to him right?


Easy, I'd personally stop selling tanks to him until he proved he understood the safety and filling requirements. Such as tanks are only supposed to be 68% full, not 100%!

That is rediculas, I think I would have to make sure everyone I talked to knew no to go there. I don't even let all of my employees fill tanks much less customers.

Maybe you should tell him that it isn't the tanks, it's the way he fills it. When I fill co2 at work, they made sure I knew not to fill them 100% of the way. I have filled probably about 1000 tanks, and not one blown burst disk. Where's my award

Hey Saint, where's this shop in philly? I live in philly and I don't want to go there by accident.

I dont sell ANY THING to this place nor will I EVER!

I did find out the name And to top it off they are two blocks from me.

gee i wonder if they didnt just open up and use my name to draw new customers? being that im right around the corner and well known by recballers in the area.
You know I realy don't care if a shop opens up but to not know the basic crap is realy bad and as we all know we want paintball to be around for a while and that doesnt help any thing. and who knows what else they are doing that will give paintball a bad name
any one can start a shop but knowing what to do is an other .

Just becalse I drive a car doesnt mean I can make and sell cars.

you guys do what you wish with this I have my own Ideas

If you don't sell it to them, then why are you getting his tanks with blown discs?

I believe he is saying that he sells tanks to his customers and the customer get their tank filled by this place. This business overfills the Co2 tanks, blows the burst disks, calls the tank defective and tells the owner of the tank to return it to the store they bought it from.

I think

Come to Triage Paintball.. about 20 min from Philly..

The only time Ive heard of a blow disc here was when someone put the tank right next to their heater for a good hour.

I didnt sell the TANKS I dont sell CO2
I Own The Shop that gets the busted tanks coming through the door with people telling us that the other shop said that they were no good but the tanks.
they just need disks

Dont get me wrong I LOVE the over flow of people comeing in to me now.

its just the fact that people dont read or look in to any thing before they act on it .

you guys know what i mean.

you would be pissed too if it were in your town.
