So I've entered the raffle, and I'm curious--does anyone know if, should one win one of the big prizes where you get to choose a saber, are the crossguard hilts fair game?

Everything is.

Only asterisk is the prize is for the base price as described.

Meaning, if you want a charge port & charger - you have to pay for that.  That, or other upgrades, are not included in the package.

Winning? Is that what you think it's about? I'm not trying to win. I'm not doing this because I want to beat someone, or because I hate someone, or because I want to blame someone. It's not because it's fun. God knows it's not because it's easy. It's not even because it works, because it hardly ever does. I do what I do because it's right! Because it's decent! And above all, it's kind! It's just that. Just kind.

I wonder if they'd allow someone who got one of the top tier prizes to switch both emerald sabers for a single diamond saber. I'd like to think that would be to their advantage financially.

Oh MaestroZee,

That would be really cool.

Slow your roll though - they've only just released it. 

Let's see what happens next... Tongue

Eventually, maybe not next raffle, but eventually, there will be a Diamond tier prize   Shocked

Either you like Star Wars... Or you're wrong.

For the top two prizes where you get to choose, the Emerald and the Grand prizes, you can usually reply to the prize notification email and ask for any upgrades you want, they'll quote you how much it would cost and you purchase the amount of Requisition charges they tell you to cover those extras.  So if you won the Emerald prize, they would charge you the difference for the upgrade to the Diamond Board plus any other customization you want.  Granted what Rapine said may be true and the Diamond may be excluded from this, but you can definitely ask.  I didn't upgrade to Emerald on my Grand Prize last fall, but I know of others who did, and I paid extra for the nickel finish and recharge port on my Guardian.  I think they'd work with ya if you were to win the Emerald or Grand prize and wanted to upgrade to Diamond.

I wonder if anyone has tried to upgrade their grab bag to emerald, though seeing as it is a grab bag that may not be possible.

Grab bags have been upgraded to sound, I think, but you have to be quick - those prizes are ready to go almost as soon as they announce the winners. Best to reply straight away to the winner email and ask. If they can't do it, you're still getting a free Ultrasaber Smiley

If u live outside the us, is the shipping cost included in the amount for Raffle Entry?

This is a question I wanted to ask, but then didn't in the end and just bought what I wanted and could afford.

But I would like to know, for future reference and purchase

I don't think so. I'm fairly certain that it's your subtotal, only including all the costs and any discount codes you may use.

No it's not. It has to come to over $250 before shipping. That's because that shipping money goes to the company transporting the packages and not to Ultra Sabers. Same deal for anyone in the US. Its purchase price only, not purchase and shipping price combined.

If you win, does the shipping cost change? If so, do you pay for the additional cost?

Not unless what you ordered is out of stock and you don't want to wait to receive your prize, as the rules state your prize ships with your Entry when it is back in stock.

Simple question: When do you get to know that you've won?
I am so impatiently waiting for my new diamond sabre, but on the other hand, if I got to win a prize, I'd be willing to wait another couple of days.  Well, I never got a message concerning that (yet), so I guess I did not win anything, and still I am on the 6th business day after ordering now. My sabre hasn't been given to the mail yet.

To quote yoda:
patience you must learn ...

aaaaahhhh, I am so impatient
