... what happens? Have anyone of you tried it? You should get one more of each paint - but I can't be sure, so I am asking.

I bought the complete package - and was quite surprised to see, that it was not on the Download List in the PSN-Shop after buying it. So if my PS3 dies, I'll have to buy it again. And of course I can't get more of the new paints just by downloading and installing the package again. "Me not like!!"

What do you think?

I don't believe so, but I also don't see why not..

Some people on NeoGaf say that you can only purchase the paint pack one time from PSN and that each chip is one use only.

I will try it when I use a few paints, until then, I dont see the point. If we cant get the paints again then its a bit stupid as they would make more money from people who want the paints more than once.

I accidentally bought the Complete Pack twice on, and I received everything twice bar the Track Pack.

I've installed everything twice apart from the cars, and got 2 of everything.
You might get a different result from buying them individually though.

I bought the bundle twice by mistake and can confirm that you can buy the paint pack more than once.
I have two of every paint.

Sammers beat me too it.

I've bought the paint twice and have two of each chip now. You can only use each chip once like any other.
I believe it's the same for the cars and the suits.
On the playstation store the track pack get's highlighted in red (meaning you've paid for it and can download it again). The other packs stay blue so that you can buy them more than once.

Yea I hope in some way you can dupe the paints. I think it is asinine that we can't have infinite use on the paints and we have to keep rebuying them if we want more than one. What a way to make a buck, jeez.

Buying the paints is downright worthless for only one use a piece and on one psn account. The only way I'll get them is through the complete pack.

1 of each paint just means I have no choice but to exploit.. again... Why is there no paint preview for the car.. obviously it doesn't save the paint to the car until you exit... the only reason is because... well, that's a story for a private email to PD.

I'm with you on this, and people don't buy them 🤬 more than once. You'll only encourage them to 🤬 us with the next DLC.

I think you'll need to buy them again as I couldn't DL it as content without paying.

Yes - correct. I bought the Paint Package again yesterday, and as some say in my thread, you get one more of each paint. You do have to pay for it - again - but the price is so low that I won't complain too much about it.

Anyone tried redownloading the unlock code again, without buying the pack a second time.

I forgot exactly where the thing is and I don`t have access to my PS3 for the moment, but AFAIK its somewhere in the account management thing.

There you can redownload anything you have bought from the playstation store.
