why so expensive?

[darth tratus]

My Dark Brother Has Put Forth A Very Good Example

I To Have Had Issues With Vader's Vault... 

(I don't want to turn this thread into a bashing VV thread, but just to get this story out and then get back on point)

I was going to set up a project with VV, but I had so many issues with simple communication with their people, that I simply abandoned the project... (I later found an Independent Saber Smith, to get the job done, and for FAR CHEAPER than VV was gong to charge me)

i dont mean to bash them either. i was just putting an example of good sabersmiths out their that charge sooo much compared to ultrasabers. their work is good but just too expensive. lets get back on point now as wraith suggested

yea and money is gettin harder to come by so im glad i found this site to get a cheap durable saber that doesnt look bad.

You'll be happy with US I think.  Go with the Dominix LE if that's the one you like, it's a very nice looking hilt and I can tell you from personal experience (I own the regular Dominix) that it is great to handle.  Pick your color (like they said, there are alternative Sith colors - Violet Amethyst and Fire Orange look nice and ominous with a hilt like that) and your blade and give them a try!

[Darth Laxis]

i was just thinking go with the regular dominix cause it looks more sleek and it looks slimer and if i can get enough i hoped to get 2 and a coupler and have 2 different color blades

[Ex Nihilus]

i wish i could do tht purple but i dnt have the money to have multiple colors i might just do green if its real bright with the heavy grade blade

To put your mind at ease, the violet LED only costs $5 more than the single-color LEDs.... so its not a huge jump in price, if that is the color you really wanted.

[Darth Laxis]

yea i do want tht one but is it bright with the heavy grade blade?

[Ex Nihilus]

All US sabers are very bright. However, the mid grade blades tend to be brighter, as they are half the thickness of the heavy grade blades.

The mid grade blades are extremely tough. I duel pretty hard against them, and they hold up just fine, so don't worry about durability.

If you're gonna get 2 Dominix hilts to make a staff, just go for the Phantom.  It's literally two Dominixes sold together, you can even get them in different colors, for cheaper than the price of buying two separately.

[Warlock Umbra]

the colors of your saber popped into my head as soon as possible. your saber is awesome!!!

Sigh.

Why are sabers expensive? Why are the higher end one expensive? The high end smiths charge SOOO much, etc.

Ultrasabers builds Fords. (Ultra has said this). Ultra churns out quality sabers like a factory at affordable prices.

Ultra's Custom Saber Operations and other single person operation sabersmiths build Ferraris and Lamboghinis. These operations build one saber at a time and do custom work with their personal machines, etc. And if you have never built a saber with sound, accent LED's etc, there is a great deal of work that needs to be done. It's not just a wire here, a wire there and BAM! a saber.

Just an FYI....you certainly get top quality with any Ultrasabers product, and the best bang for your buck.

Of course if you think he's better, you can always try saberforge (cough, cough, hack, wheeze)  

[darth tratus]

i will never go to saber forge! my allegiance is to US!!
