After returning for a long time I bought an SP1 and a Viewloader Eyeforce but my problem Is that there's already something wrong with both. It's hard enough to get Into the sport as is because It's so expensive but If things keep breaking It will be Impossible to afford It.
The problem with the SP1 Is that whenever I screw in the tank It starts leaking from the reg the grip and maybe even the bolt, I think the bolt might just be leaking and I'm hearing It through the grip. I've already fixed two previously, the hose (Teflon Taped) and the Reg (Needed tightening). I even took It to the shop the day I was supposed to play a 24 hour scenario game on my birthday and the guy pretty much said "I don't know" and just handed It back, I had to rent an A-5.
The Eyeforce's problem Is the day I got It the board was fried so that was great. So since I also ordered that from online I'm wondering what should I do first, Call Viewloader? E-mail them? It's just I don't know what to do because normally I don't have anything break on me the first week or two of getting It and I never shop online because usually I can get things from where I am but there's no good paintball shops around here.
I'm also wondering Is there anyway to return either of them just to get my money back because I'm fed up with constant fixing and If a product Is that unreliable then I just don't want It. I have a feeling I'm going to end up getting them fixed and having to sell them online and lose like 100$ In all the shipping and fixing fee's, which Is a lot for me since I don't have a job and work for my parents every once In a while.

Thats crazy, I recently had the same problem with my car (2000$) stuff just kept going wrong over a period of a week. Did you buy the items brand new and from where?
Broken markers are just part of the game before getting frustrated I'd just give Smart Parts a call for all the well deserved crap they get from a lot of players they do have outstanding customer service.

Brand new and both from Action Village, the gun literally worked up until I was about to Chrono then It breaks. Worked the night before perfectly, I also was running a remote but that same week I happen to lose the part that screws Into your gun (Quick release)so I had to buy a new one but that was only a 5$ replacement part. I bought a vest to from Ebay and It was supposed to be shipped a couple day's before the game and It never shipped even a week after they told me I was supposed to have it, they just gave me a refund. All of this during the week of my birthday.

It could be that the reg is just venting excess pressure which is normal. Are you using HPA or CO2?
Trust me It's not the venting, I've heard It venting before and this Is not It. I also tried It with my HPA tank and It still leaks from both the bolt and reg.

If I have the warranty paper, I was about to send It back once but I ended up figuring out what was wrong and I had the paper In my hand and I set It down somewhere and someone probably threw It away.

You can put in an RMA request online I believe, or over the phone
They'll get your SP1 working, and AV does have a return policy I believe
Give them a call too, if you're hopper was DOA, then I'm sure that they will replace it for you

Only problem with that Is my friend ordered It for me and I gave him the money, he did It since I don't have a credit card. I guess I will have to call Smart Parts and Viewloader and talk to them about It, If I do decide on selling either the SP1 or the Eyeforce how much do you think a used one would go for?
I would like to throw in also so I don't have to make another thread, I'm looking to buy either Proto 08 Pants If I can find my size or 09's and I was wondering about what size I should get. I'm either 34x30 or a 36x30, around that area. Also are jerseys the same size as normal shirts? I wear and XL shirt because I like to wear baggier shirt's and I was wondering If an XL jersey would be about the same.

Selling them will get you close to nothing in cash, maybe $50 for both of them, better off getting them replaced for free
No I mean If I get them replaced then selling them. I'm not getting replaced for free, there's shipping and I don't know If they will be fixed/replaced for completely free. I don't think Smart Parts does returns or replacements, they will probably fix the problem and just ship It back.

i'm gonna go out on a limb and say check your o rings and such in the marker?
Yes I did, I checked the bolt and the reg's o ring's. What would Smart Part's tech's think If I shipped them a gun that Isn't broken but just need's some o ring's.

They would think you're like 90% of the returns, a new player that didn't know what to check, only that they went to play with their brand new marker and it didn't work.
What should I do?
