Thinking of maybe getting in on this, either a second brood guard to match the one I got during the sales, or a Spectre in Sunrider's destiny. I've had a Spectre in my cart on and off since I bought my first lightsaber six months ago.

jldavi, I have a Spectre. It is easily one of my favorites if not THE FAVORITE. I can tell you that if you do get it, you will not regret. I know double brood guards would be awesome. You can always get a second one. But the SPECTRE.....you've just got to hold it to really understand how nice it is. http://imgur.com/gallery/dVEug77Trust me, this IS what you want.

I am a first timer here and I ordered some stuff to be able to get into the raffle. Is it normal for US to hold the order until after the raffle has ended to see if I win anything? Im excited to get my first real saber!
I'm curious about this as well. My order is on day 10 of processing. It's a pretty busy time for US so things might take a bit longer.

It's pretty standard for them to hold orders until after the prizes have been drawn. That way, they can ship orders and prizes together. It saves them money.
Last raffle, I ordered day 1 of the raffle and my order shipped a couple days later with tracking, as usual. I won a prize and, when they shipped that, I never got a shipping notification. It just appeared on my doorstep one day. So, that's at least one advantage to waiting. At least, if you win a prize, you'll get a tracking number for your package.

Cool thanks. I figured that's what they were doing. Makes sense to do it that way especially since orders qualifying for the raffle will get free shipping too and they'll be eating all that shipping cost. Got a baby due within the next 2 weeks and was hoping to swing around my new Chosen One a bit before then so it doesn't wake him/her up hehe. Even knowing this in hindsight, I still order it.

Congratulations on the baby. Yes, you speak the truth about shipping costs, especially with free shipping. That's just another great thing about Ultrasabers, though. Raffle, 10% off, tiered rewards and free CONUS shipping. Gotta love it.

Took the plunge and ordered the Spectre in Sunrider's destiny. When I saw I could use paypal credit (six months no interest, so can be split up into more manageable amounts of money) I couldn't resist. I think this may be my last one for a while though, I've racked up 9 sabers in less than six months .

I also need to take a little break to get through the lean winter months and catch up from Christmas.

Thanks guys! In the meantime, the first youngling and I will have to settle for grilling steaks with my current Chosen One (tongs) OMG I love the Shirts! XD Entering tonight, myself! Emerald Savior for the left side, default color probably sentinel yellow. Deciding as I go through checkout. It's still not offering the illuminated AV option so I'm going to have to contact customer service for a requisition charge...

So apparently the issue was that I wasn't logged in? Once I logged into my account, the illuminated option was there. Weird... Requested covertech on the opposite side. This shall be my left savior!
