Cheapest site for paintball markers?

Yes well I'm a tad new to this site and I guess you could say a "novice" paint baller although I have been paintballing for a respectable amount of time I have only used one gun that i bought. I was just wondering if anybody knows a sight to get cheap paintball guns, Used or old i don't mind but i would prefer if they are used that t hey are in good condition but whatever. Forums i don't necessarily trust so I'd prefer a company sight. The sights i currently use for cheap equipment is anythingxtreme.com and actioncenterpaintball.com those sites I suggest but if you know better feel free to share
THANKS! Your associate, Williams

Other than those, I couldn't really reccomend a better store.

I mean, seriously. We're not allowed to promote any other ones!

Google has some good ideas, though.

actually Xpaintball doesn't sponsor us anymore, so we can recommend any sites we want to.

www.xpaintball.biz is normally the cheapest, but I also like www.actionvillage.com

Or go to your local store or buy used here... depends on what you're looking for.

I had a particularly bad experience with XPaintball recently. I ordered an A5 and HPA tank, and they were both listed as backordered. 5 weeks later, I asked for the tank to be changed to one listed as "plenty in stock" and asked for an ETA on the A5. I got an email telling me that the tank had been switched. A week after that, I was concerned that I wouldn't have my new gear in time for a tournament, so I asked for the order to be cancelled, then bought an A5, R/T, double trigger, and J&J Edge system from Action Village. The next day while I was at work I got an email telling me that I could cancel through a form on the site, and then two a few hours later telling me that my order had been packed and shipped. The "Plenty in Stock" tank is backordered and I now have two A5s.

I find it hard to believe that after 6 week sof hearing nothing, they coincidentally happened to get my stuff in stock and ship it the day after I cancelled the order while I was at work. The tank situation really pisses me off, too.
