I was thinking of a different way to have paintballs without
having to carry around a big box of them all day, and i thought of haveing like a soda machine were you choose how many you want like 500 for 10$ 1000 for 20$ ect and the type of paintball you want and insert the money of credit card and then the paintballs come out a tube ( they dont just shoot out though you like pull a trigger or something. ------------- Tippmann 98c BT-16" barrel BT-Tactical car stock BT-Adjustable rear sight Double trigger |

I guess its possible. But if its sitting outside or
something then it might freeze or melt them depending on the temperature -------------

store it inside. ------------- Tippmann 98c BT-16" barrel BT-Tactical car stock BT-Adjustable rear sight Double trigger |

possiblities of it being outside. but other that I dont think its that bad of an idea. but you know it will probably never happen. because the machine would be out of paint so quickly it would constantly need refilling so I think its better off selling them in cases -------------

Please stop yelling at me. there is a button on the left side of your keyboard that says "Caps Lock" Push it now. Good Idea, but you could only about 15 cases in there. I dont know about your field, but at my Field we will get out there with 40 cases and leave at the end of the day with 10 at the most. -------------

I think I remember seeing a paintball despenser either on the internet or im a magazine. It was pretty cool. You put your pod under it and put in so much money, it then spits out the ball(of your choice) into the pod. |

k think about this... you dont wanna carry around the case, sooo u decide to buy 500 paintballs, sooo instead of carrying around the case u gotta carry em around in a bag or somthen, unless of coarse you wanna cup your hands and walk around that way... ------------- [IMG]http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c128/sneaky_sniper/Invader_Zim.jpg"> |

Can't you buy your paint by the bag at your field? I know we can.

| I kind of like the idea. It might be impractical for rotations sake, etc, but it would be nice to be able to just push a button or two, insert the money, and out it comes. |

I know at my field we sell 500rd bags of Blaze for $25 and a Case of House Paint for $50, and a case of Blaze for $65.... So it makes no sense to buy the bag when the case is just a little more... -------------

i have been pondering this. why would a paint "dispencer" be so off the wall. i have seen vending for livebait, soda (or pop), food, coffee, 22cal. ammo, (at my gun club) gum, (of coarse) lotto tickets, and a slue of other "off the wall" stuff. now im not saying that the paint should come out like gum out of the venders you see. but meybe more like the food venders where you can push a button, and a carosel will turn, and you tap in the item #, and the door opens and you can get the #of balls you desire... now some of you are thinking it will be out of paint quick but it is not for buying a full case but for the guy that wants 1000 or less.. that in turn will lessen the load on the already stressed dude or dudett behind the counter and also get paint faster to the guy that wants that last speedball game in before his buds wife pulls him away to cut the grass ------------- woodsball rulz trees stop bullets ballons don't keep working millons on welfair depend on YOU!!!! |

it should be like...a vending machine except it wouldnt have a back, it would be connected to a little shack or something (the shack would be loaded with paint) and they can just check it every now and then, it its out put a few mroe cases in...or something like that ------------- http://www.freewebs.com/paintball_things - novice paintball help (If you own a tippy and your new to paintball, this site may help) Jesus is my friend DO NOT say"sniper"here! |

| seems to me that if the paintballs just dropped out of this machine, there would be breakage. with the force the vending machines push on things to make them move and how many things the paint woul dhit on the way down, including the bottom, at least a few would break. think of how shaken up your soda is everytime it comes out fo the vending machine. It smacks 20 things before it gets to your hands. They would probly need some kind of padded lane or soemthing probably to make the vending process remotely work, like where theres a 5 foot 20 or so degree ramp before it gets to you. and on top of that, they still need to make the internal design zig zaggy so people dont just reach in and take the paint. |

| i think one problem everyones overseeing is this- notice how on soda machines they say open can/bottle slowly? this would happen with the paint too ( i know, not carbonated)-its goins to fall even a small height and that could cause breakage within the bag, therefore resulting in people getting realy mad....then there are the people who will try to kick it ( hoping not to be seen) which could cause further breakage within the machine....at least when you buy paint straight from somone yo ucan open up the case or w/e in front of them and see if anythigns broken and then tell them so they can give you a different bag or something.....thats just my thought, mabye someone can think of a way to prevent this breakage from occuring to begin with |

| another thing i was thinking is this-these machines would definitely cosst the field money, whether its alot or a little, and the field may have to make up for this loss, so they might bump up the price of the paint a little |

| That would be pretty cool but you would have to put alot of paintballs in there. |
