Also a bit pricey, but if your wanting to hang your saber on the wall it might be good to get a recharge port. It's probably another $80 dollars but you could leave it plugged in while hanging on your wall.

Great review. I feel exactly the same way about mine. I do like the sound, but I wouldn't mind having more without sound. I love that you lit it up so early in the video. Not everybody does that, and that is one of the things that everybody watches reviews for. Just as a warning, and I'm sure you already know this, but not all the hilts are as light weight as the Dark Apprentice. Anyways, great review. And a point to you.

Thanks for the kind words, everybody Smiley And for the advice.

Customs duty will be calculated from the basic price, which means the more expensive the saber, the more duty I will pay. This is what keeps me from thinking about a saber with the better sound board. In fact, I will try to have my next sabre as cheap as possible, which is around 100 bucks as far as I have seen.  
hmm... is there a way to get the soundboard separately? I might want to install one later, although I am not sure if I am able to install it myself.

Btw: I just used simple coat hooks as wall mount. I am sure there is a more elegant way for that, but that was the first thing that came to my mind.  Wink

Well, the saber looks really good hanging there. Point to you. I don't know how much shipping would cost you on a Grab Bag saber, but you might look into one of those if you are going for cheaper.

It doesn't make much of a difference. Shipping to germany is about 40 dollars, one way or the other. And a grabbag sabre saves about 15 Dollars in exchange for the jeopardy of having a flawed hilt with scratches or other shortcomings. I'll consider that, but I have to sleep on it. Thanks for the advice.
