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

[DarthRondoudou]

Just an update on this one, US sent the replacement blade, the complaint with FedEx was approved (just waiting for the refund notice), and now The Guardian looks as it should


...Still waiting for my original order (Empress, Aeon v4, goodies), and Summer Raffle 4th prize :-|

Stunning.

[Jedi_Phoenix]

Can't help but be curious; there can't be that many people still waiting on orders from this past spring, are there?  I mean, yeah, I know there are a handful from April and May who had ordered a hilt like the Lost Grey that's backed up 16 weeks or whatever it was, but there can't be too many of those, can there?  I'm guessing most of the outstanding orders now are from the summertime.  And yes, I'm one of them, so I'm in the same boat as you guys.

Nice choices; I know the Fallen has been a hot ticket item for a while, so it may still be affected by delays, and I'm waiting on the Dominix myself, so I know that one's delayed.  Still, they will get shipped eventually.  Hope you all enjoy them when you get them.

I only ordered the one saber—Fallen LE—back on June 28th. I got word, about 4 weeks ago, that I’m looking at early-to-mid November. Hopefully, they might get things in earlier, but I stopped holding my breath.  It will be here when it gets here.

[DarthRyppt]

I placed an order 07/28 for an Empress (No Engraving) and Apprenticev4 Staff - Sound on both. No updates yet. From the sounds of it, I am not counting on them for Xmas. I have noticed part/supply/stunt orders are moving very quickly. My orders for extra blades and couplers shipped within 2 days. I am anxious for the Pandemic to resolve, because I want to place a couple of more orders, but it will be 4+ sabers w/sound.

[Jedi_Phoenix]

Man, you know you've been bitten by the bug badly when you resort to watching your own unboxing videos...

Sent a reply email to Nichole asking about the status of the Dominix; I figured it's been two weeks since I was last contacted about it, so it's worth looking into.  Hopefully the end of this road is coming up soon; I'm not planning on ordering again until after Christmas.  At that point, however long my order(s) take to get here won't be an issue, because I can stop hiding my arsenal and actually enjoy the things, LOL.

Hey everyone. I received my mystery box sabers today! I ordered 3, $75 mystery boxes for the summer raffle on July 28th. Got my box today and am super excited! I will get pictures up eventually but wanted to let everyone know what I got.

First up is an Aeon V3 with a silver, non-illuminated AV switch in Pyrestone Orange! Very cool!

Second is a Prophecy V3 with a silver, non-illuminated AV switch in Guardian Blue! Super sweet!

Leaving the best for last is my super upgraded $75 mystery box, a Raven with lite sound,  Blazing Red blade with, what looks to me like, Hot Pink Flash on Clash, red illuminated black AV switch, and a covertech wheel! This thing is a beast and so badass! This is amazing!

Full retail for the 3 sabers I got is about $550. I also got a stand, blade plug, and some wrenches and payed $251 for everything! Ultrasabers is amazing and it's well worth the wait. So excited right now!

Can't help but be curious; there can't be that many people still waiting on orders from this past spring, are there?  I mean, yeah, I know there are a handful from April and May who had ordered a hilt like the Lost Grey that's backed up 16 weeks or whatever it was, but there can't be too many of those, can there?  I'm guessing most of the outstanding orders now are from the summertime.  And yes, I'm one of them, so I'm in the same boat as you guys.

Still waiting on my May 13th Dominicide

Still waiting on my May 13th Dominicide

I forgot about the Dominicide, that's one of the really delayed hilts.  Hope you get some good news soon

[Galef]

I kinda feel like they should just remove a 4 variants of Dominicide from their catalogue, fill the outstanding orders they have and then just stop offering the Dominicide all together.
As cool of a hilt as it is, it's very different in its construction to all their other hilts and I think that's a reason it's so hard to get it back in stock once it's out.

Just about any pair of Initiate/Apprentice hilts coupled as a staff would match the length of the Dominicide (particularly the Initiate V5s), so the only thing you'd lose is the aesthetics.
But hey, they could keep the emitter/pommels in their catalogue if you really wanted to match the aesthetics.

I guess my point is that if US reduced the variety of hilts they have, it'd be easier for them to keep in stock the ones they do still produce.
I feel the same about the V2s. As much as I love the V2s, they are the only non-MHS, non sound compatible hilts they offer.
I'd gladly give up the ability to get more V2s if it meant they could keep the V3s in stock for those that like them.

Heard back from Nichole; the Dominix is still delayed.  She offered me the Dark Initiate LE v5 as an alternate, or if I'd rather wait a week, she'll hopefully have some news.  I'll admit the substitute offer was tempting, but I'm gonna give it another week and keep my fingers crossed.  If it turns out that there will be a huge delay, then I'll probably swap, but if there's still a chance of me getting it soon, I'm willing to wait a bit longer.

[Starflicker]

Still waiting on orders from July
Dark Sentinel v4 Staff AS/AS from the 20th
Sentinel v5 CG foc AS Obsidian v4 + a Second Prize Saber (Random with Sound) from the 21st

Contacted me 5 weeks ago about the v5, said 3 to 5 weeks to restock.
I know stuff has been happening so I am flexible with the timing but I'd really like to get these soon.

In my random wanderings I fell to the allure of some of the other guys.
Found a nice looking belt clip and some wrap material for my customization attempts.

I think I am done buying sabers for a while. Need to find the proper accessories to go with them now.
Robes, sheathes, tunics, etc. If I am going to walk around with a saber in public I want to look the part.
Debating on full robes or something more tactical looking for an agent appearance. Probably get both.
