Paintball Briefs
Good evening. This is Dana Granholm reporting from Paintball Journal HQ.
Here’s what’s happening in your world today.
Both the tank cover and pack that you see here are confirmed members of the 2008 Redz Catalog. Unfortunately, the catalog isn’t available yet, so we have to content ourselves with drooling over Myspace pictures of Redz Teams. I of course mean real Redz teams, not every other team that just got sponsored by them because they sent in the sponsorship package.
Kee has announced that it is raising its paintball product prices due to oil prices, which have continued to go up over the past few years. If you’d like a list of things to be affected by this, check this link to their product lines.

Not one to be left behind when profits are increasing, ProCaps distributors have also raised their prices. Citing similar reasons for their price increase, ProCaps issued a similar statement, except in better colors, proving once and for all who is the better umbrella company.

What this means for you as a customer is an incremental increase in price. Expect prices to go up approximately 3-5%. If they go up higher than that, it’s probably stores making up for their own costs, which are getting higher all the time.
Don’t begrudge anyone for trying to stay afloat in a paintball economy that’s barely stable enough to exist.
Oh, you know you want them. It’ll be magical. I promise. Just like certain other 08 Eclipse products…
