Buying paint online should be a last resort. Alot of the time, some paint will be broken. Buy it at a store if you can.

Initial D owns.
Anyway, buying paint online is fine. Think about it, somehow they had to get it from the factory to your local store...They had to ship it somewhere in there. So why not just cut out the middleman, get it cheaper, and this way you'll know it's fresh? You won't have anymore than a handful of breaks, and lots of online stores offer refunds or garuantees if there's too many breaks.

Most of the online stores I see don't offer a broken paint garuantee.

Nothing like opening up a bag of marbs and still smelling the factory, and having the paint still wet from the molding.. Wait a minute, if I got wet paint I'd be pissed.

Using airplane shipping increases the chances of your balls breaking suring shipping, so if you do order online, use ground shipping

I ordered a box of Premiums from xpaintball a couple weeks ago... Arrived in a large cardboard box, packed FULL of the little shipping corn thingys, and then the paint was inside its own Premiums box. Not a single broken ball.

Yeah, but nothing beats opening a box and looking at them before you buy 'em.
