Why did I sell that: Goalie's idiotic decision history.

[GoalieGuy42]

Recovering gun whore here. I had a really bad habit of buying/selling/trading, even if I liked what I had. The dopamine rush from having something new arrive outweighed the enjoyment of actually playing with something. Then after moving to Texas and Covid, I thinned the heard to buy hockey equipment, as I play goalie at a fairly high adult league level.

The markers shown here are from around 2011 through 2022. I don't really have pictures from prior to then, but there were lots of bad decisions made then as well. Trying to put these in chronological order, but the memory is not so great. Don't have pictures of everything, but here is a good summary.

CCM Works Pump - on my wish I never sold list. It farted, but I loved it. Sold it for stupid cheap.


Mid-block Evo - should have never gotten rid of it.


One of many Phantoms


Two of the Bob's - I grew up in the Bay Area and Delta Paintball was my local store.


Dukie - this one was great and I sold it before I appreciated stock class


Scout - another one I didn't appreciate and should have


Loved this sterling. 3d printed undercocking and stock feed.


One of many Buzzards that went through my hands. I cry thinking about not having them and should have never let them leave


Stock feed sniper


And another




Things I have now to be added later.

And more:

And another


ANother buzzard - This one was part of an overpay trade to Walz for the coolest Sterling ever.


I think this was the haul Walz got from me. No regrets


One of many Sterlings


Another buzzard


Carter Mongoose - this one was cool. Traded it to Gilly for a project that I would never complete.


A family photo at one point in time. The blue to black buzzard was my first one. Met Paul Hernandez in the parking lot after my vasectomy to buy it.


A lever phantom I didn't vibe with:


That blue to black buzzard. Had a machine shop make holes and threads for the stock


Two of a few comps I had. The black one had a funky pump handle


I was Carter obsessed at one point. Wish I had these all still:


Another family photo. The green sterling was my absolute favorite and I cry sometimes thinking about it


Another comp


The green one has seen some things


Carter sniper I should have kept


Sterling


Another buzzard


This was supposed to be the best thing ever to happen. Lost interest. T2 top tube with an Angry Antle made lower tube for sterling parts.


Gas thru phantom


Project I traded the mongoose for with Gilly


Had one of these phantom setups before it was cool


I pissed of Sonny by getting rid of this one.


Some of the Sterlings I had


Another buzzard


Another family photo


Angry sterling


I think everyone has owned this buzzard


Another Angry sterling


Bought this SS25 from a former teammate in 2008 for $125. Went back and forth between me and a friend. Should never have sold it.


These were always kind of around

Your taste in paintball marking devices is phenomenal.

[El Gringo]

Hence why I never sell anything
definately don't want seller's remorse.

[GoalieGuy42]

My ability to have self control and keep them is what is lacking.

[Junglepeanut]

I don't even want to relive the pain of my many many regrets...... However if I didn't sell things I couldn't buy new ones

[powpowpaintball]

$125 for a ss-25? I am beyond jealous

[RedLeaderSB]

That copper comp looks amazing

[Chuck E Ducky]

lol I own 2 current have owned 2 more and another resides with Ragnastock. Who owns that gloss red Buzzard? I need that in my life.

[Loophole]

I've also previously owned two of these markers and currently own one LOL. Man us gun whores must have similar tastes HUH?

[Olsson]

Wow! That photo of the blue stock feed sniper is taking feet pics to a whole new level.

Don't get me wrong here, there are several great photos of feet that can stand on their own. But that foot is going places.

[JeeperCreeper]

Well, you're definitely a man of refined taste

[JeeperCreeper]

AnarchicArctic is that the lever you have?

[Chuck E Ducky]

It’s got to be.

[AnarchicArctic]

That’s my lever alright. I vibe with it just fine haha.

[redsquirrel]

This makes me want a sterling even more now.

[Chuck E Ducky]

If you do order a new one from Australia conversation rate makes up for the shipping cost it’s not to bad for the money and you can get a complete STP SC with all the goodies in a variety of Ano colors.

Any idea where the DYE body S/C sniper is? My friend had ordered that and had it for awhile, and another friend ordered the same in green and sold it.

[Loophole]

The light blue one? I currently own it.

[GoalieGuy42]

Any idea where the DYE body S/C sniper is? My friend had ordered that and had it for awhile, and another friend ordered the same in green and sold it.

That is one I actually know where it went. Reached out to who I sold it to and will PM you if I get a reply.
