About xpaintball...
After a tough time, I finaly decided to go with a SP ION. A good choice, I also decided to order from Xpaintball because they were cheaper than any local stores.
They look like a pretty good place, and they say if you spend over $300 they will have the gun at your door in 3-4 days. However, it has been 3 days and I havent even heard a word from them, they havent cancelled my old order yet either...does someone know if they are having technical diffs or just overloaded from the weekend?
Thanks

also, they are most likely on backorder. you could be waiting a month or two in order to get it.
every place i checked on the internet was backordered, so, i "got out the yellow pages" and called various shops around the country to find one in stock. it only took me about an hour or so before i found someone in pennsylvania that had them.

Right but I live 4 hours away from Dayton (where they located). And unless they can process the gun, give it to UPS and have UPS ship to to my door the same day...
Normally I wouldnt care but me an my friends are playing these kids who think they can beat us and we each got like $50 floatin on it. I just wanna know if they really do get it to your DOOR in 3-4 days, thats what they claimed (im not trying to say they arent a good company, they were probably just overloaded from the weekend.)

As to the backorder I dont think so, because they said as of may 29 (wed.) they got all the colors in stock and I doubt they sold out by sunday...

IF they have one, its is entirely possible. but, xpb is notorious for not telling you they are out of stock. i suggest you call them and ask.

^ i've seen lots of stories about xpaintball not informing u if it's backordered and just waiting. Thats why i did village, its got the stock alert.

Patience is your best hope. Next time don't bet when you don't have a gun heh.

Nice...
Good news...
Called anythingxtreme today and Ken helped me out big time, shipped me the LAST black ion and everything else in stock and is going to ship me the barrel back when he gets it.
Many thanks to the boys at xpaintball,
