I'm kinda a big deal

« Reply #135 on: December 05, 2015, 07:48:09 AM »

Hi all, I purchased a couple sabers and now have some rewards points and was thinking about getting a grab bag. The only concern I had was the totally random hilt part. With a grab bag+blade coming to $70, what's the likelihood of getting a $70 or less valued saber+blade? Seems like everyone has had good luck when it comes to grab bags, but I'd be pretty bummed if I ended up with a slightly blemished base model AEON that I could have picked up for $5 less.

I have never been unsatisfied with a grab grab.... its like getting yourself a gift and not knowing what it is!  I encourage people to embrace the unknown.  My last grab bag which I got 3 days ago was a Dominix V4 with windowed emitter in red... from a monetary view I saved $20 by getting it as a grab bag.  Now it should be known that I am a huge Doninix/Aeon fan... so I am EXTREMELY happy.  In fact I just put in another order...  I realize some people fear the Grab Bag because they can't control it, but in my experience you will get a really good deal, there is no such thing as a bad UltraSaber!   Let go... you much unlearn what you have learned...

I have embraced the unknown and have partaken in the grab bag for my first saber ever! Anxiously anticipating to see what I get when it arrives.

I received 2 grab bags with heavy ultrabright blades.  They ended up being a red Dominix V4 and a guardian blue Sentinel LE V4.  I also got a apprentice length grab bag blade which ended up being a midgrade blade with a pointed tip (looks great on the red Dominix V4).
I'm totally happy as a first time buyer and found them to be excellent examples of quality.  I'll be making another purchase soon.

Hi HappyFragger and welcome to the community.  As already mentioned you will need to read and acknowledge the Forum Rules before you should continue to post.  Go to the main page and look at the top for the large red print.

Regarding phoning Ultra Sabers, the likelihood of actually speaking to someone is not good so save your time and money.  You need to email them with your questions.  You should include your order # ( which usually is found on the top right hand side of your emailed receipt ) so that Emory can easily find your order/invoice.  The proper email address for existing saber orders is  [email protected] .

Please review your printed order to see what actually is included compared to what you think that was ordered and paid for.  Hope you get this sorted out soon.   Smiley

My first lightsaber and first Grab Bag arrived today.  I'm very pleased.  I added some options I thought would be nice, but there's no disputing the quality of the base lightsaber at a Grab Bag price point.  There will be more grab bags and Ultra Sabers in the near future.  Btw, it was ordered on the 16th of December and arrived on the 24th.  Very nice indeed.  Thanks!

'ello all,

Rather new to the saber community. Finally had the scratch to throw down on a saber, so I was torn between a SF saber or a grab bag, ultimately the grab bag was cheaper and I got a blade plug, stand, and picked my color (silver, as I always use in any type of media) and a Heavy blade. Looking forward to becoming part of the community and will post pics of my saber once I receive it!  Grin

The grab bags here and on the "post your grab bag pictures" thread look spectacular, but I'm noticing a trend, as a lot of them seem to be Sentinels of some sort. I just received my Dark Apprentice v4 LE and love it, and wanted to order a grab bag almost immediately, but I kinda was hoping for something other than the Sentinel since it looks so similar. Should I take the plunge anyway? I'm not a stickler about color, just hoping for something a bit more distinct from my new apprentice, maybe a SI or Liberator?

I'm a newb with lightsabers, but the length and weight to me would indicate this is primarily a two-handed saber.  I have no doubt some folks could easily handle this blade one handed but I find I want to grip with two hands and one hand is usually far up towards the emitter.  Hope this answers your question?
