New they run, roughly $700 to $750 for a Vision model... if you know the right people, abotu $800 if you don't. Last used Vision I sold I sold for $400

[Southparkrocks]

Oh yeah sometimes if your unlucky the anno rubs away after awhile more than other guns.

I think Shockers might be "the deal" going right now.
On ebay I see many NIB 04/05 Shockers with the Nerve Rebound board with some else for around 730-790.

That something else has been a free Halo B Rip drive, Free Clear Evo II Y, $100 dollars towards anything for you shocker including hoppers and tanks, free case of paint you decide what kind to, and a free 68ci 3000psi tank.

Good gund for good prices.

I just seen a 03 vision shocker with egg,and nitro for 685, my buddy was thinking about that instead of the ion.

I wouldn't mind having one, but I'm a cheap bast.

[JRingold]

Hmmm. I'm looking at an NDZ Shocker Vision currently... This may be helpful..

I have seen dealer prices for vision shockers for about $680. It's amazing how much money they can make on them.

Markup in paintball sucks. As a general rule markup on product to cover cost, investment, overhead, etc should be about 30%. From $680 to $800 isn't even 20%. Where it looks like a lot of money, in standard business models, its not overly impressive.

indeed. When looking at things relativly, the mark up in the paintball world is peanuts.

But it still looks like a lot for those of us youngins who work and then splooge all our money on a marker

[minimag03]

Our local guy charges 10% on what he pays for markers. He is happy with the profit because of the volume he can sell. I think he has Ions for about $235 nib right now.

I was given the chance last year to be part of a field. There was an initial investment of course, which I had a source to cover my share of. I turned it down... as much as I love paintball, and would love to eb part of a field and a store... the business model that paitnball has become simply sucks. Yuo give your biggest spendors discounts that eat into your already marginal mark-up, you're advertising budget (sponsorship) is horrible as far as return in investment, yet its expected and you can't afford not to. I marvel at how people make a livign in the game, I wish them all the best, but realistically, the business model of todays paintball sucks.
