I wouldn't necessarily say paintball is falling apart, but with the competition of the other local stores and businesses I would say this can actually be seen as a good thing.

Yes, people will lost their job and that is the one bad thing about this.  But it gives local businesses and some other competitions the chance to be better.  I haven't ordered from ActionVillage in probably 5 years, so I can't say what their customer support was like, but I have never had a bad transaction with them.

I am sad to see them go, but some other online store will open up and take their place eventually, it is just how business works.

Haha very true, but you can also look at stores like Rockstar Tactical, they are what would be considered a "mom & pop shop" and not one of the big box stores like action village or ansgear.  So, this does help them in a way.
