A young man's dream: the Dark Prophecy v3 in Pyrestone Orange with Silver FoC and Obsidian Lite Sound. I do have the funds to buy it, but my job is not the highest paying by any means, and I'm finding it hard to justify the purchase. (Note: I DO have 2 sabers via the Grab Bag option, Guardian Blue Sentinel v4 and Consular Green Sentinel LE v4, so I do know how amazing and durable these sabers are.) I'm aware of the back order on the hilt design I'm drooling for, and was hoping to have this for a costumed Halloween wedding I've been invited to. I need some devil's advocates and some "hype guys" to help me decide whether I should order it immediately, save up for it, or hold off and make sure it's in my best interest. (Note: the total after shipping would be $330.)

 In all seriousness though, if you need to pay the bills you need to pay the bills. If you can sacrifice a couple weekends of bowling and movies, however... |

Hey ZZ94, The Prophecy is an amazing hilt - I've just ordered one myself.  They are OOS though, so waiting another month wouldn't kill it, and you'd still have it well before October. If; however, you - oh, I don't know - say...wanted to get in on the raffle, and potentially get more sabers, you could pull that trigger now.  |

Well those statements are both true. I think I would wait for a sale so that you can save some money and get the saber you want. Patience , good things come to those who wait.  |

Do as Burce said XD Just do it! Lol. Would be cool then to win more sabers if you were lucky to. Heck I would right now if I could. I'd go Jedi colors though. Consular Green blade, either silver or yellow flash, non lit av switch though, Manticore high pommel to give it more of a Star Wars lightsaber look. Not that there's nothing wrong with the stock pommel because there isn't but yeah

Spring raffle entry! Weigh it all out and if youre gonna end up getting it later because "why not" or some other random reason; dont waste the chance to make your purchase count. Also, be careful with your reward points! Dont convert them til you are GOOD and READY to use them! (just in case you didnt know or forgot.)

I was upset at first that I saw Out of Stock over and over but I've received all my orders within a week.

Thanks for all the advice! In the end, I went a totally different route: a friend of mine was looking at the Aeon v3 with Premium Sound in Dark Violet Amethyst, and we agreed that if we won anything from the raffle, I could have the prize saber. Now just crossing my fingers for a "May the 4th" sale on MY baby!
