PVC Prices

[cannon freak]

I was just curious, what do you guys normaly pay for your pipe, do you have to buy it in lengths or by the foot.

For me I live in Canada and am pretty much screwed for pipe, If I want say 4" SCH 40 PVC I have to buy a 20' lenght for around $170, it really sucks and If I want SCH 80 lol thats over $300!!!!

20 bucks, for about 5 feet o'pipe

1.5 in SCH40 pipe is about $6.50, 3in SCH40 is maybe $8 for 10' of it at my Home Depot. And for fittings I get most of mine at Lowes since Home Depot seems to overcharge .

PVC is a bit expensive... but what rules is the cheapness (or relative cheapness) of galvanized steel here (along with black as well)

It cost me $20 to build a PVC piston-valved paintball gun, and is only costing my $20 to build a steel piston valved paintball gun

Pretty impractical, but great for use in under 50 degrees!

You could just head over the boarder and buy some fomr the USA right?

I could probably go to the USA and buy some but seeing as I don't have my drivers license (Could have it now but was to lazy) I can't really get down there.

I belive the propper term for what you describe as 'ripping your ass' is 'supply and demand'

[cannon freak]

Does anyone live in Maine and know what the prices are like for PVC?

That's the only place I could really go in the near future.
