This is awesome but I am waiting for my Empress to show up before I place another order. Getting to see it in person will help me decide what sabers I order next.

I"m so tempted

Ditto.  I'm actually waiting on two Empress sabers plus the four freebies from the last giveaway.  That will determine if I jump in on this raffle.

Same here. Waiting on my Empress and my Renegade LE (Diamond). I'm also doing a custom build on my Bellicose right now. (having it upgraded, pretty exciting)  I will probably wait for the Summer Raffle to get another saber. My wishlist is almost complete...for now.

Oh.  Yes.   I think it is time.   :-)

Good to see you getting in on another one.

There’s a couple that I would love to have I’ll just have to wait and see. 

im in it to win it.

Think I'm gonna try and wait for the summer raffle still. I need to participate in at least one so far though x.x I have a saber in mind I'd like to really get too with at least V3 sound

May have to try my luck in this one.

I have seen a couple comments along the same line as my opinion; I am waiting for my last order to assist in my next order decision. I am keeping my fingers crossed in hopes my order is completed before this offer is expired. This will be my first raffle to participate in.

Safe sabering!

Looks like I will have to wait cause my hours at work are getting cut. No room for non essentials

I really want to order an LE hilt that I've been eye balling

I really want to order a couple of stunts but I do not have the patience to wait 8+ weeks.

I just placed an order two weeks ago...lol

I'm gonna be sitting this one out.
Gonna give the guys at US at least some chance to catch their collective breath

During such times with the stupid virus around, a Raffle Prize really lights the smile!  ;D

I decided to preempt my stimulus saber order  ;D ::)
I'm definitely interested to see if anything comes out of the raffle for me, but am excited to add my second saber to my arsenal!

OK, I just HAD to pull the trigger on this raffle!  NOT ONLY was it the perfect time for me to pick up a spankin' new Sentinel v5 BUT I FINALLY convinced Mrs. TheDutchman to get her own saber: the Aeon v3!!

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE PARTICIPATING!!!

Just entered the Spring Raffle -- my first raffle try !  I have an Azure Grand Master coming, hopefully the raffle will be a lucky one for me  :)

Looks like the summer raffle is a go so, can't wait for that one :D So I'll be skipping out on the spring raffle for now so. I got some good stuff in my cart waiting to be bought that I think will get me won so :P

Entered! By ordering my first Ultra Sabers at all. Excited for my Brood Guard SE and Aeon v5 stunt sabers! Can't wait to see how the raffle goes.

The generosity of UltraSabers never ceases to amaze me. They do these raffles all the time, and if there isn't a raffle, there is some sort of promotion going on. I wish I could enter this one, but it is going to be a bit till I can make my next purchase, but good luck to all who enter!

I placed my first order (empty hilt Consular and Lost Gray with a few blades), I put in the coupon code for the raffle but missed putting in my username.  I know it clearly states the coupon can't be put in after the fact, but this is just the username in the comment section.  I emailed in the username but did I completely screw myself on the raffle?

I've done that before myself  :P

Just email them with all pertinent info either at [email protected] or (and this is the one I've always used) [email protected]  
Someone should help out out and you'll be entered in the Spring Raffle  :)

Good luck!

Thanks.

I emailed to info@ on Sunday, I haven't gotten a reply yet and wasn't sure if I would get one.  I figured someone on here could put my mind at ease.  Cheers!

I've done this as well.  They'll take care of you!

After the problems with my Renegade LE, (still waiting to hear back) I had pretty much decided to stop ordering sabers for a while. Then I  saw a couple of reviews of the Empress. (Mine will be here Monday the 20th). Getting excited again. You people know how strong the addiction is...anyway, I am officially going to enter the Spring Raffle. I shall once again be the proud owner of the Scorpion. I gifted the 1st one to a really good friend who needed a win. Felt good to be able to do something nice for such a cool guy. But now, this time around...gonna make this one awesome saber!

Hope all you are healthy and safe!

I too am contemplating if to enter the raffle or not. And... if to get the Empress of the Savior. Anybody gotten their Empress in?
Anyway, good luck to all the raffle participants!

Check out the Reviews section there are 2 or 3 videos in there already about the Empress

Yes! Thank you! I just watched a few. Really hard to decide... looks amazing though. Still a few day to think about it!!!!

Happy sabering!

Hey I recently placed an order on April 8th for two sabers totaling $381.58 and was excited to be entered in the spring raffle for this year, I entered the coupon code and checked out as usual, although while I was browsing SaberForum and realized I missed a vital step in the process in which I did not write my SaberForum name in the comment section of the order. I am hoping I would not have to cancel my order and redo the process correctly to be entered, I usually do not buy two sabers at a time and it is unlikely that I will have an opportunity to take part in a raffle any time again soon.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. I sent an email on the tenth asking for help as well but since the raffle is so close to over, I wanted to post here as a last resort

I would just email them and explain your mistake Im sure they will fix it for you
I would send it to Ana, Erin or [email protected]

AboutTimeJoey, 1st welcome to the forum and congrats on your saber. Send an email to [email protected] or [email protected] . Title it RE: (your order number). Then say you forgot to add your forum name. Give it and ask them to enter you into the raffle.

so as of 11.55 am today, i am in the Spring Raffle. hope i get lucky.

Aight! I did it! Entered the spring raffle... Raffle entry: Diamond Empress.... Can't wait for it to arrive.
To all off you, stay healthy and safe!
May the force be with you (and good luck with the raffle!!!!!)

Like other forum members already said: send Marlena or Ana a mail. They are very helpful. Hope you get it sorted! Good luck. And welcome to the community!

I entered the raffle with a Crimson Scorpion. New blade color choice for me. I got the Dark Dark violet Amethyst blade with AS FOC. Can't wait. Also hoping to here from Ultrasabers about my Renegade LE. (still super disappointed about it).

I entered with my son's Fallen.

Anyone already planning what there saber will be if the get one of the top 5?
I'm torn between a Crimson Scorpion or a Dominicide.

-

For me it will almost certainly be a Dorian, that's the other hilt I've had my eye on for a while now and honestly it was a hard choice for my order.  But I have some ... plans ... for that EH hilt.   LOL

Well, I am addicted. after getting my first Mystery box before the raffle, I decided to pull the trigger and got a couple more. Got the Spectre, Lost Grey, and a second Mystery Box (this time the sound one). Good luck to all who entered. Also hope everyone stays safe, healthy, and May The Force Be With You!!!!!! 8) 8) 8)

Entered in with a Dark Catalyst in Pyre Orange, just a basic sound as that's all I've ever owned and can't fully justify money on other sound founts right now as I'm just happy practicing and hearing the noises, especially during this time. Hope everyone is staying sane and healthy. If you are in anyway in a crappy head space, no matter which side of the force you reside on, I am around my dudes. Oh benevolent Gaia, we praise you today. May the force be with you all, always. 

Dark Catalyst is a great hilt!   You'll love it.   Please post some pictures when you get it, I'd love to see that in Pyrestone!   :-)

Man, it's hard to keep my excitment down.
I was pretty bummed not to win the Winter Raffle because I think I hyped myself up for it too much.

But it's hard not to be excited, especially since I don't think there's nearly as many orders this time around. Partly because the Winter Raffle was closer to the holidays and the movie, but also because it seems like a ton of people either just got a saber or are still waiting on an order.

That's probably why there are only 85 v 105 to give away, but I still feel like the Force is with me more this time around.
May the Force be with you all as well!

-

I have 3 entries one on April 4th one April 18th & April 20th. The Order #'s from the 1st to 3rd is almost 6000 difference but Im sure those are not all Orders that will qualify into Raffle but thata alot of orders I think. good luck to us all entered.

I remember someone doing similar math for their orders during the Winter Raffle and it was over 18,000. So still better odds.

-

Agreed.   But I always go into these things assuming I'm not going to get anything.   To date I've only be "disappointed" once.   :-)

i just looked at the rules and just got a forum acct, i used the raffle code in my anakin and obi wan saber order, could i attach a photo of my reciept and still have it count?

That is great news! I hope we all win :)

I think this is common just send an email to Ana or [email protected] and explain to them you forgot to put your forum name in the comments. Im sure they will fix it for you

They definitely will

For those who've entered the raffle, my question is this; which saber will you choose if you win? As my wishlist is almost complete, I find myself wondering which one I'd pick for a diamond saber win.o might pick one I already have (diamond would be upgrade) and either make a staff or sell/trade the other one for a saber to complete my collection. What about you? Which saber would you choose?

I would choose the electrum wind with purple blade

Dorian.   Its the "other" saber on my list.   :-)

If I win a Diamond or Emerald, I'm going with the Crimson Scorpion set to pulse between BVA and SRD, with an Orange FoC.

If it's the Grand Prize, it'll be a Dominicide in Red with Orange FoC for my youngest son. My Raffle entry was my oldest son's Fallen with Premium sound, so winning the Grand prize would be awesome so we can "upgrade" my youngest who currently has a Phantasm v2 with 28" red blades.
Then they'd both have Premium hilts with sound. And I'd add the Phantasm v2 to my wall.

But at the end of the day, any of the prizes would be amazing. It's so cool that US does these giveaways.
It makes the somewhat expensive price of all the sabers (which is still great in comparison to the other guys) even more worth it because you know it goes toward funding these fun giveaways.

-

I have smaller hands so Im mainly after something that will sit beautifully in my hand while a spin and strike for my dream saber, all recommendations are appreciated. I have personally found the V4 Apprentice to be very helpful in this as the choke point is decent, not entirely amazing, but definitely decent for me to swing around. Still having trouble with my form and spins but alas gotta keep at it! Dominix V3 feels good but I find slips down my hands until my grip hit the pommel-ish area. Was told Catalyst series is really great for a choke grip. I find that the Dark Apprentice thus far is my favourite saber for feel currently. Again definitely open to suggestions. My hands can full span all sabers listed, I just unfortunately dont have bear paws.

The Fallen for sure!

Hi! Welcome to the forum. I can really recommend the Catalyst. I have small hands too. But to be honest, I also have the Lost Grey and that’s a really beefy hilt but have no problems swinging it etc. My other saber is the Manticore and that’s such a comfy hilt... I like it because it’s super clean when it comes to having no greebling. Hope you’ll find a saber that fits your hands!

Savior or the Emperor’s Hand.... though question. But hey, it’s never a bad thing to have dreams!

I’d probably choose between a Fallen, Savior, or Dominicide. I’d be thrilled to receive a mystery saber as well however. There’s just something about that box opening/saber reveal experience that feels wonderful  :D

If I was to win I have it narrowed down to 5 choices. Crimson Mantis, Emperors Hand, Archon 3.1, Guardian, Savior. Honestly Id LOVE a super tricked out Dark Prophecy but thats sold out.

I'm entered also! I'm a little late to play. So not sure if that matters with how they pick winners. I entered last night so am good to go! My entry was my first diamond saber, an Electrum Wind. If I were to win a saber of my choice, I might have to with a Lost Grey or the Guardian. The Flamberge LE v2 is also calling to me.  ;D

Woo Hoo!   In under the wire!   :-)   Its a total double-blind draw, no help or hurt from when the order is placed.

Almost time!   Good luck to everyone!

I'm weak.  I went ahead and squeezed off another order for an empty Fallen and Guardian with a couple of grab bag blades to round it out.  Here's to hoping.  ;D

Good luck everybody!!!

Good luck everyone!!!

I want to wish us all good luck. Raffles are so much fun.  Waiting for the winners to post can be incredibly difficult and amazing at the same time. I've won and lost in previous raffles. I think I'm due for another win! (using the force to make Emory draw my name for one of the top 3 prizes) 12AM and the raffle is done. Getting excited!

If I got the Diamond prize, Flamberge CE, no question.

Emerald, not sure, maybe an Archon V3.1 or Flamberge V2 or SE.

Grand Prize would probably be Empress in black w/Sentinel Yellow + Silver FoC. Or something in SRD or Arctic Blue.

Regardless, I'm doing my best to not get my hopes up. Don't want to set myself up for disappointment lol. If I win, great! If not, I've still got my Dark Catalyst on the way.

Good luck to all!

So....I may or may not have made another order just under the wire. Dark Initiate v4 Sentinel Yellow stunt and Initiate v4 in Adegan Silver stunt. May upgrade to basic sound later but definitely stoked to screw around with these comfy looking hilts. Good luck to all in the raffle!

I tried to get the misses to agree to letting me place another order. No such luck.
Sabers crossed that 1 entry is enough.

May the Force be with us all

-

I know exactly what you are talking about! Maybe my missus en yours are related?

Any idea what time results will pop?   ;)

I think today!
Super exciting!

Think I figured it out. If I win a my choice saber, I'll get either the Chosen One or the Catalyst. Then I'll grab the Manticore for May the 4th sale! That will leave me with just one more saber on the old wishlist.

Fantastic choice. I’m still building up my arsenal... lots to wish for.
I also decided on the Savior.

If I won the diamond prize I would probably do a fully tripped out guardian or maybe see if they would make me a Frankensaber.

I think I'd have to go for the Chosen One and give it to my son so we can duel - I ordered the Graflex  ;)

I'd probably go Emperors hand or Fulcrum.  I'm a huge fan of Ahsoka, though a graflex would be tempting.  Maybe be a good dad and get my daughter the empress she wants  ;)

Ordered a couple of mystery boxes a few days ago to get the entry ticket, can't wait to see if I won anything or not, I have no idea what I'd get if I did win, but the Emperor's Hand is looking pretty tempting.

oh dear lord, when will the wait end??? I just got my first saber and now I seriously have the itch!

LOL  I hear you, AH!

And a dozen sabers later, I STILL feel that level of anticipation and awe  ;)

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

I knowww, I've been checking the forum nonstop today for any update

I think it’s just insane what US is doing. Giving away these sabers... my Manticore is making me smile whenever I pick it up (this was a raffle prize I got). Love it!

So I’m not the only one checking every 5 minutes?

Definitely not, I've got a show on and I'm more focused on refreshing the forum then the show.

Yeah, I check it everytime I touch my phone.

Nope! I checked this morning before work, a couple times during my break, once after work, and now since I've been home I've been refreshing this thread every ten minutes or so. What? It's my first raffle and I'm really excited because I ordered my first diamond saber, but a free saber on top of that (especially emerald or above) would just be icing on the cake!

I am just as bad. Just got my tracking info on my first saber and been on the forum all day refreshing lolz.

We all do this.  I've been checking every hour or so myself.   :-)

I know I'm checking a stupid amount this afternoon!

So....anyone else still feeling the excitement rising?!

Been checking the Forum all day long off and on :)

Hello World!  New here just placed my first order yesterday for the whole family (7 sabers all stunt).  Been checking this thread a ridiculous amount today lol. Can't wait to see the results.

Still waiting for my thing to be fixed, sent email, got nothing back so I hope I made it in

Yeah I never got anything saying I was in either.  But even if I didn't make it in the raffle i'm loving the excitement of it. Still got at least one unknown saber coming with the order. ;D

Very excited!  My first UltraSabers raffle!  I just missed this past winter raffle.  Good luck to all!

It's good to know I'm not the only who has been hitting 'refresh' every 30 min. You guys weren't lying about this being an addiction. I blame you all. When's my intervention?

I've entered several raffles (won a few), and I can tell you that this is normal. That's part of the fun. Waiting for the winners list to post. Looking it over several times (slowly) trying, hoping you will find your name. And knowing that even if you don't win...your entry is going to be pretty sweet.

I believe you'll find only enablers here.

Your intervention is to get rid of ALL your sabers and send them to ME!
<waves hand>
Only by freeing yourself of material possessions can you truly understand the Force.

See, here's the problem. I only *technically* have 1 saber, with 3 more in processing. I can't give you my Aeon. You have the same saber. That would just be cruel.

Good point! I shall wait until the others arrive and THEN influence you!

Anyone thinking we might have to wait til tomorrow with all the orders keeping everyone busy? I'd definitely understand.

Possibly.   Have they ever released the winner's list late in the evening before?

It looks like they have for a couple. We all just need to be patient. Personally I'm playing Splatoon 2 to pass the time.

In the meantime, you can give me the Aeon.

I'm playing beatsaber to pass the time

Morning! How’d y’all sleep? 😂😂😂

LOL Just taking the opportunity to get some writing done  ;)

But this is one of the reasons that I like the raffles: good anticipation  :D

Im about to head to bed. i have packages coming tomorrow and if go to bed they can be here faster. lol

I don't sleep much. I'll probably be up until 3-4:30ish. Meantime, I'm thinking about getting a Manticore for the current sale, grabbing a Chosen One (2 up for private sale, so I'm hoping to get one of them) and maybe waiting for the next raffle to get a Catalyst.  Maybe I can win one of them. great...the wife just pointed out that i don't have the Savior, Graflex, Bane or a Prophecy v3. Talk about being an enabler. What's a guy to do?

I just love the Maticore! Well balanced and light.
I wish my missus was so understanding...

Don’t sleep too long, like in Army of Darkness 😂😂😂

I need this to happen! I’m on a cellphone refreshing this page since yesterday. My eyes can’t take much more of this lol.

Didn't, got sick xD

Still waiting, still excited!

I only made my first order two weeks ago, so it'll probably be a while until I get the lightsabers I ordered, either way! But winning the raffle would be a rad extra.

I guess so! 

You guys need to stop trying to appropriate my saber(s).  ;D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFIiYPhdXVo# (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFIiYPhdXVo#)

Being in different time zones is not good aha, been checking too much.

I keep trying to distract myself...but my mind wanders back to the raffle constantly  ::)

Patience is a virtue! In the meantime I’ll keep daydreaming of how I’ll personalize my raffle entry saber  :D

Anyone else here finding creative ways to pass time?

Point of fact: entire stories  ;D

As the Talking Heads song goes "Im Still Waiting.....I-I-Im Still Waiting"

Thank God, I thought I was the only one.

So to pass the time, I've been watching a Veterinarian show with my wife.
I also made another saber video. Maybe you guys will find it interesting to pass more time as we all wait:

Hey All! Brand new Ultrasaber/Saberforum member!

So maybe this has been answered, will Ultrasabers announce all 85 winners? How do we know who wins?

Yes, they will post a separate thread in Announcements. You can see prior Raffle results still if you want to see what it will look like.
What seems odd this time around is that it's taking longer than the last few Raffles, which posted within less than 24 hours of the Raffle ending.
Not sure what's up. US has been very busy for the last few months but even the Winter Raffle results posted within 4 hours.

-

Hope everyone is ok at US and around the world! Sending positive force vibes.

I saw the last raffle posted really quickly. I hope everybody at Ultrasabers is okay...  :-\

This is common.  Sometimes it takes a while... ;)

In all honesty, with the pandemic going on... I hope Emory and all the staff at Ultrasabers are safe and healthy. These are bizarre times. I’m amazed that US is doing this raffle and other events like these.
All the best at US!

I haven't heard about the raffle yet either, but I just got my confirmation that my Brood Guard SE and Aeon v5 are on their way!

Edit: Though I checked the tracking number and it says FedEx was told to the void the shipment, so now I'm confused again.

Edit again: And I just got official FedEx tracking, so that's sorted! Still no clue on the raffle, though.

Lucky, my Graflex SE and Archon v3.1 are still processing

When did you order If you don't mind me asking?

Two weeks ago, so it shipped sooner than I thought it would. Though they're stunt sabers, so maybe they're faster to put together.

That's awesome!   Hopefully a sign they are caught up.   LOL

With my orders it's always 5 days after ordering, it's likely for mine that I'm getting movie replicas

Is a 48 hour wait normal for the raffle results?  Not impatient, just asking...  its my first.

It doesn't seem to be normal, I'm starting to feel it's a bit excessive.  You would think something like this would be a priority and not really that big of a time commitment.  I'm probably just salty waiting.  This is the first one i've entered.

I feel a great disturbance in the force...    As if a million hopes had suddenly cried out in despair ... and died ...

*fear not, the raffle WILL be drawn*

Just to make sure... No one has heard anything about new orders or the number 66 right? I fear Deep is in trouble. Keep arms at the ready comrades.

Ultrasabers Staff, the time has come......Execute Order 66.....

I just got an order complete email from my April 4 order that was supposed to be a Raffle entry.
Does it being complete and assigned a tracking number mean I didn't win anything?
Can anyone who has won a previous Raffle tell me if their prize was ever listed with your order info?

On the website lead times say 3 to 4 weeks minimum due to Movie, Holiday & now Covid. Unless you got a Mystery Box you will be waiting for a bit

Most people in the last few months have been reporting 1-2 MONTH processing time, unless it was just a MB. So the fact that you are claiming to be getting yours within 5 days means they are finally caught up.
My last order was in February and it took 2 months. So this current order only taking 3 weeks is a pleasant surprise :D, although I get the feeling it means I didn't win anything. :(

FIVE DAYS???  Are you related to Emory!?!?!?

no no, because before this virus, i ordered a dark initiate v4 with guardian blue and initiate v2 with blazing red, shipped 5 days after order, same with my 2 initiate v4's in blazing red (https://scontent-dfw5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.15752-9/94386736_538469457063317_5193281103485468672_n.png?_nc_cat=100&_nc_sid=b96e70&_nc_oc=AQkqwngEbxRaWjlPZBIDTWxtql_JZDVcYWP9isql9jtns6YYElSCYDjJ6QdlhKiSntg&_nc_ht=scontent-dfw5-2.xx&oh=105bafad559acff23671f68828d6d9ed&oe=5ECBDE92) this is what i mean

I'm curious how their order number system is set up. I ordered on April 9th and I'm about 5000 below you. I can't imagine they got over 5000 orders in 10 days...

well, they released a few new sabers since rise of skywalker and fallen order, sabercomp is setting up their competition again here in 8 days, and theres a may 4th sale too, i can imagine it

The order numbers are correct I ordered on April 4th & on April 20th there was almost 6500 orders between the 2

Guess that explains some of the delays then. I'm new to US and sabers in general so I have no idea what kind of staff they have building everything. I assumed it was a pretty small outfit.

oh no, you need a big crew for this gig, people to weld parts together, put the electronics together, building blades, testers, making sure everything is secure so electronics dont get ruined. unless you want a hasbro like saber then the wait is definitely worth it

Galef if you dont mind me asking what did you order? Stunt? Sound? I have a order that is from before that and I have got no email notification of complete yet. I actually have 4 orders Im waiting on.

so your telling me the odds are slim Lol

Fallen in Tri-silver with v4 Sound, 2 extra batteries and a Shock pommel.

My graflex and archon are both stunt

Mine is just a Dark Menace w/ Sound. Wonder how I got passed up? O well the wait continues

I ordered mine super early the first morning of the Raffle. Had been waiting on this since the Winter Raffle. So maybe I got in before yours?

-

My order is from March 27 and then I have 3 Raffle Entry orders too.

Food for thought: usually Ultrasabers ships within a week but since being inundated thanks to 1) Episode IX, 2) Christmas, and 3) Coronavirus, shipping times have understandably increased.  And while some of the wait times are around 6-8 weeks, the "other guys" take 6-8 MONTHS.  And they do NOT have raffles (much less on a seasonal basis  ;)).  Oh, and you can't use them for heavy dueling.

Just be patient, I assure you that the product is worth the wait  :)

I ordered 5 MB with sound on 4/20 and got shipping notification on 4/23.
I have a feeling my diamond Spectre is going to be much longer.

Oh I agree with you 100% TheDutchman. Im very happy with my sabers I have got so far and look forward to my 4 orders. Just a little antsy I guess. Plus Im hoping I score in the raffle. Good luck to all :)
