I have recently finished helping my dad remodel a kitchen and worked all summer saving up for an angel. I was looking at the Speed but now I am confident I want the 4. My dad owes me about 1400 bucks but he refused to pay me when I told him that I was going to get a 4 with it.:pisss:
He thinks it's "asinine" to spend that kind of $$$ on a marker.
Please hit me with suggestions on how to convince him!

tell him that u think his 30,000 car is ashine

paintball is your life and u want to make it better

you need the 4 to excel in the sport

because he loves u (i hope)

cus its not his business what u spend your hard earned money on

couldnt have said it better myself JT. also, just keep telling him about it and bugging him and showing videos of it until he finally just gives up and lets you buy it, and by that time the 4 will already be out and u wont have to wait for it to get to the dealer.

All sports are expensive. Look at skiiing/snowboarding. How much is it for the gear and per lift ticket? And the cost of a good set of golf clubs?
That might put things into a different perspective. Good luck man!

It doesn't look like he knows alot about the sport. So tell him you are going to buy something cheaper like a speed, then buy the 4. He won't know the difference.
