It doesn't work like that. Buying pb's from the internet is like gambling... you get a VERY good price, but... you have a 30% chance(most likely) that they will turn up destroyed. If you trust UPS/FedEx/DHL enough, hell yea its worth it. |

I know lots of people who order paintballs off the internet, they buy like 4000 and expect to have one bad bag. They save a bundle though.

xpaintball.com, now anythingxtreme.com has a return policy. if u're item show's up broken, u can return it. i'm not positive if this applies to paintballs though, u'll have to look for your self.

^ No.
No Online shop, and even some proshops do not have a return policy on Paintballs, they would loose WAYYYY to much money... UPS/FedEx/DHL arn't the most 'Gentle' with packages, so it would be UPS fault not the stores. |

As stated above there are risks to ordering paint on-line. I can tell you what I used to do when I ordered paint on line to minimize the risks. I had one supplier tell me that he was so sure of how good his paintballs were that he would ship them and not charge my credit card until I called him after I received them to let him know if I liked them or not (I really did like them, but they now sell something else). |

If you are buying cheap paintball and they come broken then thats your falt. But alot of times they come in good shape.

Like said aobve you're taking a risk. Try to buy from a place where they have a wearhouse close to where you live so they aren't driving your paint half way across the country.

I have bought paint from www.firstcallpaintball.com before and I will do it again. It was fresh and did not have a single broken ball.

I think buying pbs off the internet is the most laziest thing a man could do... just drive your car or have your parents drive you to a pb store and just buy them. GEEZ!!!
