(im)Patiently waiting for my new _______!!!

[hutchasp]

Just received an update on the sabers I ordered the first of may. Looks like its now a 4-5 week wait for the Fallen Black, The Empress Black, and the Graflex SE.  Here are the options that was given to me.

Fallen alternate options:

1. We can change the hilt to an Azure Fallen (Blue) or the Crimson Fallen (Red) with all other options on your order the same and get this order fabricated and shipped out for you ASAP.
2. We can hold your order with no changes and get this shipped out to you when we have the Fallen hilts back in stock in 4 - 5 weeks.
 

Empress alternate options:

1. We can change the hilt to an Azure Empress (Blue) or the Crimson Empress (Red) with all other options on your order the same and get this order fabricated and shipped out for you ASAP.
2. We can hold your order with no changes and get this shipped out to you when we have the Empress hilts back in stock in 4 - 5 weeks.
 

Graflex SE alternate options:

1. We can change the hilt to an Dark Graflex (with all other options on your order the same) and get this order fabricated and shipped out for you ASAP.
2. We can hold your order with no changes and get this shipped out to you when we have the Graflex SE hilts back in stock in 4 - 5 weeks.

I hope this helps.

I opted to change mine for Azure Fallen. I waited a little over 8 weeks. Once I changed it shipped in two days. I will be getting it by 430pm today. It is currently 12:00pm. My patience has abandoned me. Walls are thin, halls seem long. There is no hope, only an empty doorstep. I fear I may not survive the temptation. The dark side of the force calls to me. Please send help

Mine was delivered when I was halfway across the country. I kept pulling up the security camera footage of my living room to look at the box.  I understand your pain!

Eh, you guys have it easy; I can't even open the box until tomorrow at the earliest, and even then, I have to stash them for the next several months until Christmas!  Can you imagine the kind of mental anguish I'm gonna be going through??

Stash one in your closet and go look at it all Gollum-like.  “My Preciousssss”

That thought had crossed my mind!

I brought mine to work with me today since I didn’t get to really play around with it yesterday. So I can just go to my office pick it up and smile.  Plus about four of my coworkers now want one.

Well after 9 weeks and two days on my Dominicide order, I finally got something from CS. I don't plan on changing this order as I have known they were out of stock.

My problem is this email neglects to tell me what is going on with the Phantom Initiate V4 I ordered 11 weeks ago today. I rather have information on that hilt because I have seen people getting Initiate V4s as grab bags and mystery boxes.

"We have been experiencing a higher than expected order volume and ran into a temporary stock issue on the Dominicide hilts but we expect to have them available soon. In an effort to avoid further delay, you can change to a similar hilt and get this order fabricated right away. Please let me know if this option works for you and we can get that taken of for you."

Nonsense, you do not need any help. Embrace the power of the dark side and take your rightful place among the Sith.


I finally heard back from a CSA today, he again apologized for the delay in my order and said that they are having a temporary stock shortage with my hilt (which is what I had figured once everyone else on here was being told. He said that they are getting smaller shipments in weekly and that he'll get back to me on Weds when they get their next shipment in.

Not what I was hoping to hear, but not unexpected.

I guess the two sabers that I'll be getting Monday from elsewhere will have to suffice in the meantime

[Jedi_Phoenix]

I have a feeling I'm going to run into the same problem with the Dominix I'm waiting on; shortage of hilt/parts.  As much as I'd love to know, I'm only at 3 and a half weeks, so I'm trying to ignore my impulses and not send off an email yet. But man, it's hard, LOL.

[Darth Kalis]

Yeah, I hope not. It kind of sucks. I ordered a Dark Sentinel LE V5 for my Sith cosplay. Chose that one because it is more or less exactly what I had designed (aside from a few minor details) when I was creating the character. I hope that the wait isn't too long or that they make me change it...if that's the case I'll just cancel outright. Not really interested in any other hilt.

Graflex SE alternate options:

1. We can change the hilt to an Dark Graflex (with all other options on your order the same) and get this order fabricated and shipped out for you ASAP.
2. We can hold your order with no changes and get this shipped out to you when we have the Graflex SE hilts back in stock in 4 - 5 weeks.

Thanks for sharing this! I also ordered a Graflex SE (together with other sabers) and this is the one which I made a mistake in the initial order. But if it takes so long until the hilts are back in stock maybe it can be changed for good.

[HesaHeart]

I wish there was a way to get live inventory availability instead of ordering then waiting several weeks to only to learn its out of stock and either change order or wait longer

God, I'm pathetic.....i gave into the temptation and sent an email.  

I don't plan on hounding them, but I just wanted to try my luck.  You never know if you dont try....
