Reviewing Pricing

Pricing:
There’s not to much to say about price. Fields need to turn a profit for their owners and property, staff, insurance and paintballs cost money. We the players get the honor of paying for these things. Maybe someday in a perfect world it wont be necessary, but I don’t see that day coming soon. So in the mean time, prices are going to be comparative to other fields. As long as there isn’t some massive overcharging of something, there won’t be much to say.

There is another part of price, and that is the value of what we the players are paying for. Some fields offer have better staff, better fields, or in some way are just better. This can also include how many hours of play you are paying for. Better often costs more to produce, and I for one am willing to pay more for a better product, within reasonable levels anyway.

One last comment about pricing. Rentals. Rentals are the door thorough which most new players enter this sport. For some reason, it seems that there are a large amount of fields who want to charge top dollar of a poorly maintained rental equipment.
