2,000 dollars just in shipping? Fuck that noise. But if you have the money, I would go for it.

Cheap paint and free place to play.

You have to factor in the supplies needed to make the paintballs, not just the machine. I'd imagine it costs a lot of money to make a case of paintballs.

You would also have to make $1200 cases of paint to get the moneys worth.(assuming you make $50 profit per case of paint)
