Thank you again.

Congrats to everyone who won! Out of interest, how many entries were there in total in each raffle?

No Way! I cant believe it! I won one of the first prizes for the facebook video raffle!!!!!!

 :o

This might take awhile to sink in....

The bad news is, I didn't win... not a big deal though.  The good news is, Master Nonymous won the Grand Prize for the website raffle... so we'll get to see his decked out saberstaff in future TPLA vids!

Congrats to all the winners.  We look forward to seeing your new prizes!

Don't you have enough sabers Nero? O____O

Way to go everyone!  Even though I did not win, I did have fun getting my wife involved.  Looking forward to the next raffles and hope that everyone on the forums saber collection continues to grow. 

That's why I wasn't too broken up ;)  I enjoyed just making the video!

Holy crap! I couldn't believe it when I got the email this morning that I'd won first prize! A nickle prophecy in GB? Yes please! I can't tell you how happy I am to have an awesome 'Jedi' saber to go with my new BR Dark Arbiter!

Thanks so much, Ultrasabers!

WOW! Just awesome! Thanaks for the honor! The Padawans will be thanking you later as well!

I have literally never one anything before.

I am blown away.

Thanks again!

Very nice, congrats to all the winners!

We expect to see pics of your prizes in the gallery  :P

Oh my gosh, I can't believe this. Not only did I win a BR Phantom V2 in the Ultrasabers.com raffle, I also won a GB Aeon V2 in the Facebook raffle! I FREAKING DOUBLE DIPPED BABY!!!! Thank you guys so much and congratulations to the rest of the winners!  ;D

You got Sith and Jedi sabers at the same time!  Winning!

Something about ordering Emerald Green that just seems to help in these raffles... when I won last time it was from my Dark Prophecy.  Hmmm...

@Master Nom That saber is going to look freaken sick! I'am sure we will all enjoy watching your future videos teaching saber play with that beast of a staff.  8)

@ Nero Ha! The luck of the emerald green perhaps?  :D

 Also holy craps! I actually won something! * Runs around in a circle cheering.*  :'( :o

Grat RLY! My student is going to be ecstatic he wanting the exact saber i won just a different color LED so Alls well 8D! I don't think i have ever won anything like this either to my recollection so its nice to feel special! Ultra Sabers is the most epic place to get a saber i stand by it. Side not, Thank you Emery for getting my Raffle in when i had a mix up much appreciated my friend! And Also GRATS WINNERS!~ I'm all hyper now >___<!

I bought a phantom initiate, a dark libby, and a grab bag for my entry and on top of that you guys are giving me a saber with Obsidian??  
 
BEST FREAKING DAY EVER  :D

Pin, you have chaos in your Sig. I like you. =3

Congratz Shadow! When you get all of them, pix or it didn't happen. ;)

grats to all the winners

Gonna post all the pics! It's gonna get crazy. Im really excited for the second prize. Completely random Obsidian saber? I can only guess what it will be!!

Sounds like a blast. Lol. Any preferences?

Big Gratz to all the winners! And a big Thank You to Ultra Sabers for putting up the raffles! Enjoy your sabers!

Wow, I am super excited to have won one of the Nickel Plated Prophecy's, thank you so much Ultra Sabers for doing this for your customers.  Although I didn't get any sort of email like some people have gotten so not sure if I should be worried there. 

@Deep - If you read this let me know if there is any way I can pay to have some additional work done to this bad boy before it leaves your shop, I think I'd like to add FoC and possibly quick disconnect.

I won one of the Prophecy sabers?! That's awesome! Thanks Ultrasaber for these amazing raffles and congrats to everyone who participated.

Maybe they like it when people advance what is possible with their products.  ;)

Congrats to the winners! Enjoy your sabers!
I feel sad for not winning. I had two big orders with obsidian. Oh well maybe next time.

You got two Ultrasabers with Obsidian! I consider that winning.  :)

I paid for them though.  :P

Raven I am still waiting to be shipped.

I don't think so. I do hope its a hilt with a covertech know though. That would be perfect.

Congrats to everyone!  Bummed that my name isn't up there, but it's exciting to see this many sabers go out to this many excited people.  Awesome raffle US!

Holy crap i have never won anything this awesome! A nickel plated Monarch with obsdian sound! Freeeking AWESOME!!! I wonder if we get to pick the blade color?  Timothy Sell wants BLAZING RED PLEASE!!!!!  ;D

Its hard to not run around work like a little kid pretend hitting people with imaginary monarch lightsaber and singing the star wars music! Duhh duhh duhhh dumdedum dum de dum!!!

 :o

Congrats man, I am jealous as I really want a monarch!,  I can't be too jealous cause I won a nickel plated Prophecy myself though.  Cannot wait to see this thing.

Shucks - shut out again.  One of these days, I'll win one of these video raffles.

at least we know they are still raffles. otherwise, Ed would have definitely won.

Nice marshall you got the nickle plated Prophecy. Can't wait to see it. I didn't win anything though. D: But I might be ordering a Grab Bag today so I'm still good. :P

Woke up this morning to a Facebook message from Deep. I am SO HAPPY that I won fourth place! I was hoping to come in fourth!! That's the exact saber I wanted! And since tomorrow is my birthday, I consider this an early birthday present!

Thank you Ultra Sabers. Not only have you brought me into this great community, I have made GREAT friends because of it, I have learned so much, and your sabers have brought my and my son closer together! Just because of these reasons alone, I am a true winner! But I'll still take the saber. ;)

Congratulations to all of the winners, especially Master Nonymous. The TPLA Corps just got additional armament to continue making instructional videos!

Thanks, Rifter - one of these days, my number WILL come up in a raffle.

I'm already planning my next saber even though my first one is still in the hands of FedEx, and I've got a few friends who'll be asking me to order sabers for them...spring raffle, Ultra?

You didn't even place Ed? I for sure thought your video would at-least place somewhere.  :-\ Also does anyone know if we can specify color and blade type? As well as pay for added upgrades like a buck puck etc..? I don't see it anywhere in the first post.

Wow! I can't believe I won first prize on my very first raffle! :O I was so surprised when I opened up my e-mail this morning to see if there was any new updates on the two sabers I ordered to enter the raffle, now it's incredibly surprising to win ANOTHER. Thanks, ultrasabers! I'll try to post videos about all the sabers I have collected thus far. :)

Not really a way to place in a random drawing, Boss.  Luck of the draw, when it all comes down to it.

IDK... that was my question also. I would like Blazing Red for my Monarch, but honestly I would be happy with Blazing red, Consular green, or Violet Amythest. I think if it has obsidian sound then it probably comes with a buck puck then?

Omigoshomigoshomigosh~! Third place!  :o Just when I was thinking I could use a Sithy Saber, BAM! An email from Emory saying I'd gotten 3rd!

Guess I'm gonna have to order some claws and paint now... Oh darn.   ;)

One of these days, maybe I'll actually enter one of these raffles.

Unfortunately, everyone can't win, there were TONS of great videos that were well deserving of a prize, but the luck of the draw wasn't on their side this raffle.  But the prizes haven't been picked up yet, so we can surely ship your prize to Ed since it sounds like you are in strong support of it.  That wouldn't be an issue at all.

Well, as much as I WOULD appreciate that, Deep, it doesn't seem right to me to deprive Boss of a saber for his juggling skills.

I must make more videos of my saber trying to k ill me. Must go bigger special effects all of it BWAHAHAHAH!

Hahaha touche Deep ;)

Haha!!  on that note, What are your feelings on allowing winners to pay for upgrades to their prizes before they get shipped out?  I know I'm not the only one on here to mention wanting some work done, and if there is any way to avoid having to ship it back to you guys that'd be awesome.  Either way I'm getting a saber so I don't care !!!

@Deep --

Im also curious on the situation with the monarchs, do we choose the specs? Like I said in my e-mail I TRULY dont care if it's random, I am still in shock that I have a NICKLE PLATED MONARCH being sent to my address :) That's like 300 dollars worth of saber right there. It's pretty freakin' rad.

UPDATE!

Just received a shipping notification from fedex, HECK YES!!! FORGET ABOUT MY STUPID QUESTION, COME TO PAPA :D :D :D !!!!!!!!

I just got some FedEx notifications also! Now the waiting begins.

The most painful kind!

Just got my shipping e-mail, should be here on Saturday, if they shipped it ground. <3 I live in WA so its only two days for ground shipping. ^^

Lucky!! Im all the way up here in the Mitten :/

Got my shipping notification as well. I live in San Diego, less than 8 hours away from US HQ!

SILENCE!! lol

Aww, don't be jealous. Green isn't your color.

Oh wait... maybe it is..

But still!!! I won't get it until Monday at the earliest. :)

Darn. That means it's definitely gonna be a while for me then :P

Not necessarily. See, I live in an apartment complex. I cannot have packages delivered there, so I have them shipped to where I work.

It's entirely possible that my saber will be in San Diego and in my company's Shipping and Receiving dept by Saturday. I'll just have to wait until they deliver the mail Monday afternoon.

And that's ok too! When I got my grab bag just two days ago, the VP of my department ran around with it turned on, raving and swinging wildly. He's a cool guy. He usually pelts people with NERF darts! So it'll be a fun time for all!

If any sabers go unclaimed, I'll be happy to reduce storage overhead, Deep...

Ahh I see, well Im hoping to get it sunday, so I can show my girly fran when she comes over :)

OMG!

I can't believe I got a 2nd place prize!
Buy my first saber and I'm getting a 2nd one!

So AWESOME!

I think my favorite part is that its a random saber with sound, so its basically like the grab bag I was considering, but with sound!


Looks like the Force is choosing another saber for me!


Thank you so much!

GAAAHHHHH!!

My monarch isn't gonna be here till wednesday. sith spit.

When are the next raffles and sales? I am already itching for more!

I would guess (note that I say GUESS) that if there was to be another raffle, it would be for the holiday season.  What the themes might be, I could not guess.

I second this. Ultra always goes big around Christmas time.... this will be most exciting :)

When was the last raffle? How often do they do sales like the 48hr one?

Last raffle was summer, for Celebration VI, before that was May the 4th

and honestly, from my recollection the 48 hr they just had was the first one Ive ever seen... or maybe not.

Regardless, that type of thing is completely random :P Ultra is kinda unpredictable like that lol

I can't thank the folks at Ultrasabers enough.  My family took second place in the Facebook raffle and are looking forward to the Guardian Blue Liberator, especially it's Obsidian sound.  We have two Initiates (dark w/blue; silver w/violet), one Liberator w/green, and two Dark Standard Issues w/orange and coupler to make the staff.  We have been destroying monsters before bedtime and settling family disputes with our sabers for well over a year now.  I am sure the introduction of sound into the household will cause utter and total chaos and I will need to be buying more w/sound soon....

Thanks to Ultrasabers, thanks to the community for all the videos (we loved watching), and congrats to the 34????? people who won.

Cheers,

Maxey

For those of us who won the second place Ultrasabers.com raffle, does the random hilt come with a blade? Or is it just the hilt? Just something I was wondering as I drove today. So very excited. A small armory of sabers comes in on Saturday and my prize comes next Wednesday. Yes!!

I live 20 min away :) I get mine tomorrow! SO EXCITED!

Right, I've opened up a new topic in the Gallery section for you winners to post pics of your prize sabers in a central location.

The topic is here: 2012 Autumn Raffle Prizes (http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=9427.0)

Spread the saber awesomeness  8)

Excellent idea, Scimitar.  You've earned yourself a point!

Muhahaha, I sate my curiosity and earn points at the same time  :o

I know the Facebook raffle has been shipped but i haven't gotten anything.  Not that im impatient just curious if im not the only one ^^. I might be a little to excited for my NP Prophecy to arrive.

OOOooo Nero I like your new sig!

Haha thanks!  Just felt like mixing it up a bit ;)

Point awarded!!! Awesome sig!

Gratz on all the winners. I really regret not entering as a mates Bday is coming up and an ultrasaber would have been the perfect gift but still paying insurance after I rear ended someone last month XD

The FedEx tracking says that I will get mine on Tuesday. I cant wait to get my Monarch with sound! I wonder what color the blade will be!  :)

Im actually seriously considering a sidious costume  for halloween, nothing fancy, so  I think I would be completely ok with a red monarch, among other colors ;)

Mine shall arrive Thursday! Ohboyohboyohboy!

Master Nonymous, what did you end up picking?

I, too, would love to know this. :)

I will reveal when I receive it!

Nice strategy :P get the REST of us excited to see YOUR sabers lol

love it! can't wait for the big Reveal!

I checked my tracking update.

Here is what it says:

Oct 6, 2012 4:59 AM: On FedEx vehicle for delivery

It's going to my office. I won't get it until Monday afternoon, around 3pm or so. It's here in San Diego and I can't touch it!!  :'(

You know you have to sign for it right. And if your not there, they wont leave it so you'll have to go pick it up at the FedEx office.

Grats to all that won, for sure. I am curious as to how many entries there were for the purchase raffle. I bought my first saber, the Malice, and was interested to know how many others were in the mix with me. heh. Oh, well, maybe next time. :)

Got my saber today. I'm more than happy with it. I will be posting pictures and a video review soon.

Negative. It's signed for by our Shipping & Receiving department. When they deliver it to me on Monday, I will sign for it at that point in time.

Ah, didn't know you had a shipping and receiving department. That differently makes a difference. :D

Cant wait to see! I am so excited that I am getting my saber on Tuesday!  ;D

My Nickel-plated prophecy just showed up!

It is absolutely gorgeous...

Came with Guardian Blue blade, midgrade standard blade, obsidian sound, standard guarded momentary switch.

Pictures and video will be coming later!

Don't forget to upload some pics in the topic above  :D

Just recieved my nickel finished prophecy.  It is awesome.  Couldn't be happier.  It is an awesome addition to my saber collection.  Keep up the great work guys!
