And this, my friends, is how I go broke. Real talk though, a second raffle coming right off the heels of the previous one? Ultrasabers is driving the temptation high.

Ok, so life happened and I missed the last raffle. Are you messing with me US. Another FREAKING RAFFLE!!!😁😁 I don't care if I have to rob a bank, (not really) i will get in on this raffle. Specter, Bellicose or Raven....one of you shall be mine. (maybe even two).

Terrible temptation! I'm not sure I'll be able to resist...

Thing is, I probably should wait until I know what I receive with my previous order first (Mystery Box + Grab Bag Prize = No idea what they are).
Hopefully I'll get them before this raffle ends (though money may be another issue).

US is torturing me! But I love them all the more for it  ;D (does that sound as deviant in english as in french? Probably...)

The generosity of Emory and Ultrasabers never cease to impress me.

After scraping together an entry and winning a prize in the last one, I definitely won't be entering this raffle. However, I wish everyone luck and hope some of the fine folks who weren't so lucky in the last raffle, or who couldn't enter, can put together some entries and win some prizes. :)

I want to sit out for this second raffle entry so that I can be a part of the winter one later in the year but the thought of potentially winning a Diamond saber or another Emerald or sound is just so tempting. Kudos to Emory and Ultra Sabers for their continuous love and appreciation for customers and members alike.

Problem is when I entered my information I couldn’t put my saber forum name in in the so called “comment section of the order” so I had to send an email hope it goes through 🙏🙏

I would love the see the Spectre in DVA but the Bellicose in SY gets my vote.

In with the new Butcher Emerald in black anodized. Couldn't be more excited to have this saber to go with my Revan cosplay!

I had to cut myself off about a year ago from buying anymore sabers because I was going crazy every month, but alas...there I am scrolling through FB a couple days ago and see what a lot of us saw:  the first pic of the Butcher.  I salivated for about 30 seconds before racing through a preorder for one, and now I'm in the Summer Raffle.

It's so awesome that US got around to making a good Revan design - this looks so absurdly good, and just from the fact that you can see the intermittent screws holding the fins down on the saber you can tell it's solidly made (way better than designs from the other guys).

A million thumbs up, US.

And good luck to all you other Raffle-goers!

That's an Ultra Sabers question, I would ask info@ultrasabers.com or log onto their website and use their chat window

Good choice there, Daniel.  I look forward to seeing pictures and a review from you.

I had to cut myself off about a year ago from buying anymore sabers because I was going crazy every month, but alas...there I am scrolling through FB a couple days ago and see what a lot of us saw:  the first pic of the Butcher.  I salivated for about 30 seconds before racing through a preorder for one, and now I'm in the Summer Raffle.

It's so awesome that US got around to making a good Revan design - this looks so absurdly good, and just from the fact that you can see the intermittent screws holding the fins down on the saber you can tell it's solidly made (way better than designs from the other guys).

A million thumbs up, US.

And good luck to all you other Raffle-goers!

Welcome back, Many.  Hopefully you're here to stay even if you're not buying any sabers.

Thank ya - I did buy a couple - entered the Raffle with a Butcher preorder in DVA w/sound and a Dark Prophecy v3 in SY stunt.  lol I had no intention of entering until I saw the Butcher, and as soon as I saw it I knew I was doomed.

Congrats on ordering the Butcher!  I know it may have hurt you a bit in the pockets but you are one of the first that will receive one of Revan’s iconic sabers!  Dark Prophecy in SY? Whoa! That’s going to be a sick saber and a great partner for the Butcher if you so chose to dial weld them two together! I look forward to seeing them. Point

Since you live in Texas I assume she's armed and dangerous...better not push her too far. Then again if you managed to get the OK for one you can still try your luck and ask for a second (but you may be better off letting a couple months go by eventually)

Haha, yes.  She's also taken an interest into lightsabers as well since she's commandeered the Dark Apprentice stunt saber that I got out of an mb so I'm going to show her how to solder a soundboard and install it to the hilt. We may have dueling sessions after that.  A new way to get beat up, lol.

Also purchased a saber in this #2 summer raffle. The Guardian (flash sale 25% off). Could not resist.

Quadruple checked the order to make sure the raffle code went in, plus made sure, repeatedly, that my forum name was in order notes.  Even closed the web page a few times and checked my orders several times in the last 2 hours. Plus, posting here, lol. OH yeah, need to check the confirmation email too................(yes, name in the notes).

Can't wait to get the Guardian, plus see who won AND WHAT they won.

I thought about getting the Butcher, or Savior instead, but their look just did not appeal to me. The Guardian, even though it's larger than what I would want an Obi-wan saber to be, still looks great and the reviews all make it look spectacular.

Congrats, Chalion!  I made a build for the Guardian when I first saw the flash sale and it's living in my wish list as we speak.  I'm still on the fence as to wanting to partake in the Summer 2 raffle.  Still pondering it and will see if the wife is okay with it. I look forward to seeing your review

Decided to bite the bullet, and get myself a dark mantis due to the flash sale, and used it to enter the second raffle. My roommate is judging me for my entry into the first so going to see how well I can hide this purchase before she finds out.

Can't wait for it to get here. If things work out, the Butcher is next. Does anyone know if we can enter the raffle more than once? Just curious.

Are you absolutely sure that you are entered into the raffle ?  I was just about to confirm my order for x2 Flash 25% off Prophecy with sound.  Would not accept any of the coupons including the Raffle.  In bold purple print it says that with a flash sale no other coupons can be used.  The only thing I could do was make a notation in the comments ordering section.  :-\

Oh well... I never win the raffle anyway and this would be my 11th try.  :(

Haven't finalized my order yet... while trying to figure this out.

You're absolutely right, the Flash sales can't be combined with any other coupon codes, including the raffle code. (I already tried it a while back out of curiosity) You can't even use reward points with the Flash sale. (just found that one out) Oh well, 25% off is its own reward. Plus, I got more points for that order. ;)

Some people on the last raffle e-mailed CS and Marlena promised to **TRY** and get them into the raffle. I have no idea if she was successful or if any of those people won anything.

Post by: Dauntless Seven on September 09, 2018, 06:24:38 AM
Thanks for the info SFD.  That makes no logical sense to me since I spent more than double the raffle purchase requirement.  Oh well... as someone apparently said... a bird in the hand is better than 2 in the bush.  Okay... poor analogy.  The good news is that my sabers are being sent via FedEx instead of UPS which was a horrible experience.  The bad news is that the delivery cost that came up in the total suddenly doubled just as I checked out with credit card.  Not good for Canadians so this will likely be my last order for this year.  :-\

I have emailed Marlena for current clarification and will share her answer as there are other members who have purchased sabers from the FLASH25 sales and think that they are also entered in the upcoming Raffle.  :-\

Hmm... does anyone know if that also includes " deal of the day " sabers ?!



Title: Re: Second Summer Raffle Extravaganza ends 09/10/2018
Post by: scifidude79 on September 09, 2018, 06:37:47 AM
Deal of the Day can be combined with other offers. I almost entered the last raffle with a Liberator on DotD, but I decided on my Shock instead. However, when I had the Libby in the cart, it accepted the 10% off and raffle codes. Really, the only coupon codes I know of that they don't allow you to do that with are the Flash codes, probably because it's such a huge savings.

Not sure how a Flash Sale and spending more than the required purchase on sabers and other parts... warrants being not allowed to enter the Raffle.  :-\

Also there was a 25% off sale for multiple different sabers for a short while... that started on the day that the last raffle winners were announced.  :-\

Hi.  For those that made a FLASH25 saber purchase during the Raffle time frame and were unable to enter the raffle coupon... Marlena has kindly quickly replied to my question regarding this.  Thanks again PrincessKnowItAll.  :D

If your purchase total meets the raffle requirement you are eligible to enter the raffle.  But you must type your forum name for the raffle with request for a manual entry in to the order comments box.

You are not eligible for the extra freebies since a larger saber discount was chosen.

For those that are unsure if entered or not ( coupon will be present on your invoice and name in raffle comments ) ...   send an email sooner than later to Marlena@ultrasabers.com with your forum name and order #.  This info is mainly for those that made the FLASH25 purchases as we don't want to unnecessarily overload her inbox requests.  ;)

May the Force be with all who have entered.  :)

That Prophecy is dang sweet. If money came up just a little tighter over the past week, that’s what I was going to go for as my raffle entry with some basic configurations and used the 25% off.  Hard to beat that!

Can’t wait to see how all this turns out.  With one more day, the excitement level is high.  And I only entered day before yesterday and had a few days to wait.  You guys that entered early...the suspense must be unbearable!

After debating over and over again with myself if I would join the raffle or not, I just ended up going for it now.

I went for a Bellicose in AS and added a few things I wanted like an extra 32" Blade and adjustable coupler for my staff.

I am weak but the Force was calling to me  ;D (who could resist such a call?)

(Now I need to get some sleep since I have to wake up for work in 5 hours)

So excited for this!  The time is almost up!

Yes, one more day and all the lucky winners will be announced.  What did you buy for your entry into the raffle, Speepcurve?

Thanks D7. Point. I didn't buy on the flash sale but I did do an upgrade on a saber which qualified me. It did seem weird that they wouldn't do it just cuz you get a discount. Great to know for future purchases. I'm sure as the holidays get closer there will be a lot of flash sales.

I might hold out on another saber purchase in case I don't win this raffle. I only have enough to purchase one more this year and if I win something then that would be tremendous savings. Or I could just use the savings to get an extra one  ;)

Best of luck to everyone. Of course, I'd love to win as well. I'll just have to be happy with my new Spectre for now. I will be posting pics and a video very soon. May the Force be with us all.

I got my Spectre with the dark violet amethyst colored blade, quick disconnects, engraved hilt, windows in the emitter, and a black non illuminated AV switch. It also has premium sound. I have to say, I think it may be my new favorite. Although I do love my Emperor's hand.

The Spectre and Emperor’s hand are both amazing looking sabers. But then, I have a list of favorites longer than a photon blade. If I win a saber, it would be extremely hard not to hit one I like...LOL! I think my 3 top choices are the graflex, dorinian, and archon, or the shock LE—hard to choose a third place saber between those two...for personal tastes. But not being here all that long, I’m kinda like a kid in a candy store looking at all the sabers. Waiting for my Electrum Wind and the raffle results is like Christmas!

Nope, you're not. For the last raffle the results came in about 24 hours after the end so I'm trying not to think of it too much in the meantime (though obviously the fact I'm checking the forum shows I'm not being very good at it  ;D ).

Sorry for your loss, that’s rough.  You’ve my condolences.

On an up note, though:  do explain this saberstaff you’ve been dreaming about.  What are we talking?

Thanks. I'm sure I'll get through it. Everyone has been super supportive!

Nothing TOO fancy. I went with a Phantasm Initiate v3 in adegan silver with the color disks. It's simple and elegant with good grip points. But no one ever said dream sabers had to be crazy!!! I figure that way I can get a good feel for blade and hilt length (I'm 5' tall even so I need to find a nice balance between hilt and blade length) and also see what color combos I want, let alone change them on a whim. I'll probably customize the hilts eventually. But for now; Simple, elegant, effective.

Sorry for your lost and welcome back.  I also recommend picking up the two swatch books from Lee filters, they give the AS blade a better shade of color than the colored disks.

I recommend it but I understand about the shipping cost with duty and taxes that go into effect.  Makes it a challenge to order stuff out of country.

I live in Germany and I got my Lee filters via eBay; I think including shipping I paid about 10€.
Still cheaper than getting the swatch book via Amazon...

So how is it done? Do they tell you the level prize that you won and then you do add-ons or customizations, and then you only pay for the customizations or add-ons that you've done?

I've never done it myself, but yes. They will contact you about the prize you've won, and if you wish to add anything to your prize, you're on the hook for that upgrade cost, but they will do it.

For those new to the raffle... here's some guidelines that will take a minute or so of your waiting for the results time to read.  ;) ;D

Sorry but for some unknown reason the direct link doesn't show up on anything but a preview.  Not sure why I can't save it here.  :-\

It's all about practicing patience and be aware that it can take up to a few days to get the results.  Winners will receive an email from US and a winners list will magically appear at anytime in this Announcement section.  :)

I don’t think that is a safe assumption.... many orders have been completed before today.  They are pulling from the group of forum members who placed a qualifying order during the raffle time span.  It is my understanding that information about raffle results will come as a separate notice, both in an email to the winner(s), and in a posted list on this site.

This is through my own personal experience both winning and losing raffles.
If you can see the package weight in the tracking feature, you can usually tell if there's something extra in it. What and when did you order?

The package weight isn't exactly accurate, as to wether it includes a prize. There's been many occasions where the entry purchases have shipped before winners are announced. Prizes are shipped separately at US discression - every entrant is eligable to win until the winners list is drawn and officially announced.

Post by: DarthBoneTD on September 11, 2018, 10:46:22 PM
As I said that is my own experience, It is unlikely they would send out a package today without your prize in it unless your a top prize winner and had to choose your set up. That wouldn't be a wise business decision. Yes if you ordered early you would of course usually get two separate packages if you win, yet if you ordered late last week you would most likely get one, win or not. 
Just my thoughts. Not trying to harsh anyone's vibe.
Good luck to everyone.

Well said, Darth Saber. I just ordered the saber I’ve wanted for a while now and I’m ecstatic about that. The raffle is exciting, and I think it’s great US is giving people the opportunity to win as many free sabers as they’ve given away this summer, but they’re also giving us a lot of fun in terms of collecting. I’ve rather enjoyed that kind of anticipation like a kid on Christmas morning. It also has to be a HUGE amount of work for the people involved. I don’t see any other businesses doing that—not once, but twice recently.

Thanks Emory—you and your crew have outdone yourselves. I hope you get some much needed sleep when all this is over :)
