wdp bought out by DYE (what if)

[Chronobreak]

well i had heard from a friend that wdp was bought out by dye, while i think it is more than safe to consider it a rumor

ex since it isnt plastered all over pbn yet.


It got me thinking though,...what would be the possible outcome of such a sellout/merger

what would it mean for the players, and the community as a whole.

Dont think it would happen.

I love WDP products and I love Dyes stuff too. But I dont think it could be for the paintball community if they joined.

What if the cow jumped over the moon ?
Hey diddle diddle,
the cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon,
The little dog laughed to see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

What if I was a woman... that would be strange. I'd have boobies.

i dont see any real advantages to this, both have great technology, and great products, but a merge would only have corprate benefits.

a business goal is to make $

...so if dye could increase its revenue in any way shape or form,..do you think they would pass up the opportunity

Possibly...
Dye allows WDP to continue as usual operating semi-independently but maybe with some parts bin sharing maybe lowering the cost, while full filling each company's own niche but maybe slipping in a last gen spool marker, possibly a mask and an extensive line of playing gear.

That seems like a possible scenario... Kinda like GM back in the day when Buick, Pontiac, Chevy, Olds, GMC were all competing for your money... Buy an Elky? or a Sprinter?
