    free delivery is near enough impossible...all the profit from selling the paint would go on posting it to people :/

    i watched it last week...that film is sooo dope...so dope i actually spent the 15 quid and bought it....

    to send out a box of paint its fuckin heavy...would be a minimum of a tenner for postage mate :/ and you are only gonna make like 50-60p a profit on a can...so you would have to sell a minimum of 20 cans to even make the postage :/

    savage mate, your better off investing more money and opening an actual shop but that could be a big fucking gamble, i know of 2 shops in the last few years to close.
    Just my thoughts but if you could sweet talk the illuminarty guys into sorting you out bulk deals you could sell that shit at 2.50 a tin easily. Most people would get it out of convienience.
    I like to think in a couple of years ill have my own shop/gallery thing going on

    it would be a cool life to own a paint supply store. but i know up here anyways the cunts are struggling bigtime. the only "graffiti-esque" shop in the city centre only sells paint as an aside now. its mostly clothes and mad other shitty "tagger" paraphernalia that they stock.

    the two shops i used to go to buy my paint are now long gone. such a depressing state of affairs.



    on a lighter note .. i've just got maself my first real job .... big chenzo will test your eyes and give you specs like a fucking beast haha ;)

    fuck just go to a local graf shop and show some support and buy paint.

    I dont rack because im too old for that petty shit and dropping £20-£30 on some paint isnt much, even looking at places like graffcity you can cop some good bargains, £3.20 a can when shit paint from places like halfords and wilko are like £5-£8 a can.

    believe me having stupid arrests on your record for shoplifting just aint worth it.

    of course if you are some hardcore street/train bomber then you need to rack to help the image!! haha

    yea but that is what I mean, even graffcity is better than any of the places like wilkos etc, unless you are racking.

    I don't mind paying anything from £2.75-£3.50 for paint, but then can understand if someone doesnt work then they havent really got cash to spend
