Youtube and Hustle Paintball

[Jellyghost]

I went to order something from Hustle, and I checked their youtube channel. It's been dead for about 3 years. Was hustle sold? Did they go into a different line of business?

Looks active to me: https://www.hustlepaintball.com/default.asp

Their phone number is listed at the bottom of the page. Give 'em buzz if in doubt.

I think they were bought by ANS 3-4 years ago after some questionable business practices by the original owners (this is based on threads and allegations I vaguely recall from Pbnation).

It was my understanding that the owner stretched himself too thin with the brewery and they had to sell to ANS.

Yea the address on the "Contact Us" is ANS's address.

ANS is starting to accumulate online stores like GI accumulated brands. Action Village, Paintball-Online, Hustle... who else do they own?

Well they've owned Action Village for nearly a decade now lol.

Resurrection.

I see 2022 at the bottom of the site....I placed an order this weekend but now this me worried! The items all showed in stock. Should I wait? Try to cancel somehow?

I don’t trust Hustle or ANS honestly.

Update: I haven't had bad experiences with ANS like some, but still try to avoid. However they were able to promptly cancel the Hustle order - they had 2/3 of the parts in stock on ANS but I just said cancel it all please and they did right away. Off to spend my money elsewhere.

Why would you want to accumulate more than one spare online store? I can see buying them and having them point to your address maybe with a message about how this store can take care of your paintball needs. I kind of understand having a second site for your loose / cheap / stupid expensive stuff but to have more than one makes inventory a nightmare, web maintenance would suck, and it could give you a bad name in my opinion. Am I just not understanding the finer points of having 12 online paintball stores and 1 distributor?

After they tried ripping me off I won’t purchase a thing from ANuS gear. It was a while ago but IDK I can find everything they got at other places and will spend more to do so if I have to or I don’t need it. The only thing they have I want to try are those cheap Stock Class rigs. But I won’t buy from them to try them.
