Good..Cheap..Dealers For Bulk Paintballs
Players are going to be shooting in psp mode so I am really only looking for good quality/resonable priced paint bulk buys (By the pallet) I am currently looking at Xball brands for as far as I see they are the best price wise. Was wondering who you guys deal direct with or from a site such as paintballnetting.com Lmk how many you buy at a time/price/brand. Would be much appreciated. Thx

If you buy by the pallet then Archon will give you awsome prices on some very good paints.

Support your local PB shop or field, by telling them what your plans are and what kind of paint you are looking to buy and have them buy it for you at a discount. Most distributors/manufacturers won't sell to you unless you meet their dealer criteria i.e business license or brick mortar.

Additionally if you pay by the skid they might let you pick up a little at a time, so you don't have to store it, and you don't have to deal with any shipping damage issues.
Plus if you go through a established store they might be able to score a better deal.

Brick and mortar is a thing of the past. If you think thats going to stop them from moving product think again.
If you haven't heard of American/kee/draxus/Xo/Archon/Nelson. You should really start to ask yourself. Am I qualified to run a field?

I would go with Procaps or maybe KEE. Maybe one of the other manufacturers if they are closer. Shipping is always a large part of the cost.

Free shipping on skids if you go through nelson. You should call up DBS, they are the Northwest distributor.

I'd say that it probably depends on where you live. Find someone that has a distribution hub near you. If you live in BFE, then go directly to the manufacturers first and see who will cut you a good deal. If they won't try the wholesalers.
