Title: A piece of my soul is gone!
Post by: Darth Pelage on February 28, 2011, 09:52:48 PM
I was notified that the package, which carried my steel standard issue saber for repairs, arrived empty and with a hole in it. This has made my horrible beginning of this week even worse than before! Would Ultrasabers replace my saber with another one of equal or lesser value?

Everyone here on the forums and that have ever had any dealings with Ultrasabers knows we are very accommodating, we do repairs for free, we send replacement parts, we do everything we can so that everyone is happy with their saber.  However, in this case the envelope came empty.... yes envelope.  The steel, pointed, saber was mailed in an envelope, this envelope to be specific:

We are very very sorry this happen to your saber.  We would have loved to get this fixed up and mailed back out to you.  But it was mailed in an envelope and that envelope arrived with a hole in it and empty.  In the future, I would really really advise a more sturdy box or small tube for transportation.  The steel standard issue is the heaviest saber we've ever made.

Feel free to email us at shipping@ultrasabers.com with any further questions.

That was the most I could afford to send it over in...it was a failure on my part. (Delete this thread, if need be)

Oh man, i am so sorry to hear about this. That is a real bummer...  :-\

Perhaps a grab bag to replace it, and the force will guide another standard issue to you.

Maybe report an item lost in the mail? Did you get any sort of insurance on it or anything?

I'll think about replacing it with another saber once I get a job and save up for another one. For now I must have patience...

Did you get any sort of insurance on it or anything?
I could only afford delivery confirmation on it, the insurance would've destroyed my bank account.  :(

Hey Furry, I am really sorry that your saber got lost like that.  The company can't do anything official since your saber never made it to the shop, but perhaps I can do something on my own to try to help.  I have some sabers in my personal collection that haven't seen use in quite some time and I would be happy to send one to you as a small consolation for your loss.  I'll try to pick something appropriate and send it your way tomorrow.

I do have one condition, though: you'll need to promise me that if you ever ship a saber anywhere again, you will ship it in a box with proper protection.  Deal?  ;)

Just have to jump in and say, Ultra, you are the greatest. How many guys would give out a saber to help fix a situation that's not even their fault like that? We should get you a plaque or something!


Title: Re: A piece of my soul is gone!
Post by: ZofBlades on March 04, 2011, 11:04:41 AM
I have to agree with Manroon.

Ultra, that's a really nice thing you're offering to do. I'm amazed that that kind of kindness is still around these days. It just makes me love Ultrasabers even more.

I...I don't know what to say, Ultra. *kneels and bows my head* I, FurryJedi, do solemnly promise to send any of my sabers in a box and with insurance; also to take the greatest care of any of your sabers you may decide to send to me! I never break my promises!! (Please don't send a saberstaff *sweat drop*)

Ultra is definitely a good name for you. Ultra-AMAZING good guy!

Wow Ultra, that's really cool of you to do that for him.


Title: Re: A piece of my soul is gone!
Post by: Ultra on March 04, 2011, 09:01:22 PM
I'm sure any one of you would do the same to help out a fellow member.


Title: Re: A piece of my soul is gone!

We can all only hope we would be so giving in your shoes, Ultra. :)

It's been said already, but this point just can't be stated enough:  Ultra, that is a totally awesome thing you're doing.  If I had sabers in need of wielders, I'd want to be right there with ya.

Indeed, I believe the jedi tradition is called, "The Concordance of Fealty". Where a jedi entrusts another with their lightsaber and etc.

Hm, I didn't know there was actually a term for it, I was just talking about Ultra's kind soul, cool though!

I know, but Ultra's offer was familiar to me so I had to find the term again. XP Yes, Ultra is extremely kind to have gone out of his way to help me. That I am very thankful for.  :)

Not unless it has changed since you last ordered.  I think you'll like what I picked out for you.  :)

Ultra, you're awesome. Enough said.

Also, yeah, concordance of fealty is both a Jedi ritual (I explained it in my lightsaber explanations megapost over in way of the saber) and, unless I'm mistaken, something the SW writer people made up to cover their asses when Mace Windu and another Jedi (Plo Koon? I cant recall just now) had different colored sabers than they should have.

Reading this thread almost made me cry.  To have seen a ray of light in a world of darkness is all any man could ask for to give him faith that humanity isn't totally lost after all.  Ultra, this goes beyond words. I believe that you, and your company, deserve the utmost loyalty and respect.  I know mere words can't express what is deserved here, but i know a guy upstairs who blesses those who bless others.  I know this may not be a religious forum, but consider yourself a part of my prayers from now on, that is if it doesn't offend you.

I regret not getting a rattlesnake the brief time they were available, so I wanna see. Also, heed the words of Master Obi-wan:

"This weapon is your life! Try not to lose it."
