A note concerning some of the rumors flying around...

[Qui-Lar]

This is what makes this company so great,
I foresee it becoming very powerful in the
force, in a business sense.

Psst... the "other guys" are all fighting. Again.

What?  There are other guys!?  I must have been blinded to all others by the awesomeness of my new Menace.

I can't believe people actually prefer other saber smiths over ultrasabers.

Relax!! Just understand that people's tastes vary more than you could possibly imagine. Like some people like chocolate, some like vanilla. As long as YOU are happy with where you spend your money and get what YOU want out of your light saber, that is all that matters.

May the 4th be with you.

I have to admit that I was a little nervous having never bought from UltraSabers before and having read some of the things people were saying, but after receiving my Graflex SE today I can honestly say that US has my business. The OP states everything in perfect form.

The force is strong with UltraSabers.

I agree with this. I've seen "other guys" of both calibers. I've seen some that look like the offer a quality product, but can't compete with US's 1-2 punch of quality and affordability. And I've seen some that severely lack imagination and technical skill to produce a good looking saber let alone combat capable, and they have the audacity to charge ridiculous prices for them.

I'm a saber nut. I go weak in the knees over a good looking hilt. But I've not been able to find another saber smith that can deliver US's level of quality, durability, versatility, and value in a single package.

My favorite dream saber is not an US and is infrequently used.  That being said, most of my sabers are US and I like them a whole lot except for the Standard Battle Issue which just doesn't do anything for me.  At rare times Emory and I agree to disagree and that is fine with me as it's his and Alex's business.  There are a few more must have US sabers on my list and this forum community is one of the best.

I wish I only had a few left <sighs>

I have to say, that as a new customer, It's very re-leaving to hear this from the horses mouth so to speak. When I initially wanted to get into this hobby (about a month ago now) I became aware of a few different negative rumours surrounding Ultra Sabers that I found concerning.  after spending many, many hours of research and after reading dozens of stunning reviews from happy customers though, I decided to cast aside my initial fears and go with Ultra Sabers as my go-to saber builder.  It's good to hear I made the right decision!

^^^All of my sabers are from here and non have let me down =] My first saber ever with sound was my Guardian Blue Bellicose, just needs a newer Ultra Edge Heavy Grade blade and I wont mind taking that one out. My top favorite right now though is probably my Dominix V4 LE in Guardian Blue, its a stunt but still. Some of the more simpler sabers I prefer them to be stunts, most of mine are but you get the point I only wanted one saber with sound so

In the last 7 days, I've ordered two sabers within the week. I'm a happy camper here with my first being wielded and the second on its way.

The first of which I purchased on 14 June and received it within the same working week on 19 June, Friday before noon.

The second which I just ordered this Sunday, 21 June here in Asia and I'll be having FedEx deliver to me before noon this Thursday, 25 June.

Needless to say, I'm super impressed with the turnaround time of US thus far for both orders. I noticed, especially in my second order, that it took less than a working day for US to get to work on my order when they came in to work on Monday, then test and process the delivery details before sending it to me via overseas courier by the end of the same day.

So far, I'm very impressed with a company that keeps my star wars interest and the star wars hobby enthusiast interest flag flying oh so high.

I have a local source that also brings in US but they sadly, only have two ready pre-selected and pre-configured sabers for sale.

The quality, design and durability of the aluminium itself, machining detail, level of hum volume and default sound fonts, balanced saber, connectivity to the launcher software on my iMac, sound font and FoC/pulse choices, saber customisation options in terms of variety of hilts, batteries, chargers, blades, colours, friendly and needful video tutorials, spread of key user knowledge on the forums, good control of wildcards by experienced moderators, a community base of positive forum users, all make up what I will call a very wholesome and holistic purchasing, ownership and usage experience overall. I'm kinda excited when I say this lol.

Way to go US and I really want to say a huge thanks for making all the technology really accessible and available to me, a SW enthusiast half way round the world! It's really amazing and awesome!

P.s. I will be using the first saber in a dress up for my school when the term reopens in July for my school's book day. Can't wait to show the kids!

The further I go into this hobby, the more I read about all of the stirring within the community. And at this point, I've seen it all.
Forgive me if this is out of line, but as much as we all love cosplaying, choregraphing, dueling, and pretending, ultimately we're all grown adults running around with big expensive light-up toy swords. (Mind you, my Chosen One is still one of my crown jewels.) And it seems as though some people tend to forget that. The Star Wars fan base is unfortunately pretentious enough as it is. This kind of dramatic environment has no place for true Star Wars fans.

Anyway, all pettiness aside, purchasing from Ultrasabers was an excellent experience for me as a client and shopper. The product that I paid for was of outstanding quality and function. I would make the same purchase again without any regrets.

As far as my experience with Emory goes, he has been nothing but good to me. He's answered all of my questions in a kind, prompt, and professional manner. I have only positive things to say about Emory and Ultrasabers.

All politics aside, Emory is doing an awesome thing for us as fans and he's making money doing what he loves. I can definitely respect that.

[Zren Tobas]

Yup. I love getting new Ultra Sabers/goodies when I can even the more simpler hilts. My next big purchase will probably be a Chosen One CE or Graflex, not too sure yet and some other needed new goodies as well =]

[Groovidad]

Yes, actions speak louder than words.  I'm fairly immune to anything that may have been flying around about US in a negative context.  I don't go looking for that ilk nor am I interested in it.  Like most of you, I have had nothing but stellar service and product from Emory and his US craftsman! My thought is, if you've satisfied, met or exceeded the expectations of 1000 customers yet, you had 3 that just grumbled and wanted to flame for it, guess what? You are successful business.  You can never please everyone (I hate using the word "never") but, it is appropriate in this example.  I have done business with a multitude of companies or vendors, as I know you all have. Most times I've received great service and sometimes I get "less than desirable".  One thing is for certain with US: ALL of my experiences, and there have been more than a handful, have been exceptional! (didn't I already say that?)  I know I'm preaching to the choir.  Just have to share, again and again.....and again!

Are you expecting an arguement? I was never happier than when I accepted the fact that I am a geek, and that I will never outgrow toys. Face it, men just don't do that. I'm very happy that Emory and his team do all the leg work to produce a saber and all I have to do is pay for service and product rendered. WIN.

Yup. I love getting new Ultra Sabers/goodies when I can even the more simpler hilts.

There's nothing like that 'new saber' smell. <sniiiifffffffffffffff> Smells like AWESOME.
