Know that the sabers don’t actually cut trough things like in the movies.... I made that mistake.
I interviewed ACLightsabers in September 2018 and he said, "One customer...asked if I could make a lightsaber that will shoot out plasma beams, exactly how it is in the movies! Some people believe everything they see in the movies."

ROFL 🤣
Hand moving intensifies*
Also thanks for the good info
lol Thanks for watching!
I made the second mistake, which is ironic since she is displaying that mistake on the left. I pre-ordered the Ultrasabers "Grand Master", mostly due to the discount...even though the inscribing looked dodgy in the pictures.
I did message them and was told it was simply a prototype and the finished product would look a loy better. It didn't. It looked worse. And I got a cut from one of the edges to the scribbled on inscribing. So I sent it back and got a Spectre (SO much better), but lost almost $180 due to restocking fees in the process.
So my advice: NEVER pre-order. Wait for reviews, images and testiments. Take your time. A small discount is NOT worth the disappointment.
you should know how how easy and fun it is to acid etch a hilt?
Never order from ultrasabers again. It ain’t worth it.
Heard plenty of horror stories like these from many different reviewers. Most of this is common sense, but when you get excited to buy something, you can easily be swayed to not use your better judgement.
Glad you did this one. Really good information for new and experienced buyers. (good points to remember)
Great video once again!
Always so helpful
Know what you are buying the saber FOR. COSplay? A few parties? Play fights with friends? Actually dueling?
Know what you need your saber to do. Order based on what you need it for and not always for looks. Or else that expensive saber may break after the first play strike or it may just look terrible in a convention picture.
Great points. A lightsaber intended for dueling or spinning may not look very flashy and fancy at all.
@@SaberSourcing but that does give you the option to paint it to your liking
True!
My biggest mistake? I bought lightsaber with Saberforge Sabercore 3.0
What's wrong with saberforge?
@@overlanddriven6346 I bought 3 Sabercore 3.0 lightsaber and two had bad quality soundboard. One burned ouit after 4 months on my shelf and second stop working after get stuck on 36% of erasing when I try upload new soundfonts.
@@MartasZLA look on the brightside, now you can install a new board and upgrade to neopixel
@@kvarde2441 And how about that money I lost because of their shitty electronics? Maybe youre rich and dont care about that but Im not. Lost 250$ because their Sabercore suck hurts me.
Make sure to watch reviews of the saber you want to buy, before buying one. I made that mistake once!
What happened?
@@SaberSourcing I bought a Saberforge Emerald Knight, and it wasn't quite what I thought it would be like. The pommel is so sharp it cuts your hand any time you need to open it, and there are two decorative plastic screws on the emitter that get in the way when trying to put a blade in and fall out if you don't tighten them all the time.
I saw a review like a month later, that would have saved me from getting that saber.
Good advice!
Pretty much all of these apply generally to all hobby buying.
I buy first party. Pretty much solves every problem you listed
Good advice 👍😎
Thanks! Hopefully discussing this topic will help buyers protect themselves from potential problems.
Nice topic!
Thank you! Hopefully discussing the topic can help prevent buyers spot potential problems before they occur.
Nice video.
biggest mistake letting you body builder friend and just strong friend use a collapsible saber or it will snap
Do websites like saber forge and ultrasabers have sellers or is it the company that’s selling them?
Company
Wonderful video well Done 🍸
Thanks!! :)
SaberSourcing Anytime My Friend Awesome Hilts ✨🥂✨
If I take a 150$ saber and the option bumps it to 500$ does it means its actually a 500$ saber? Im looking at ultrasaber custom builder.
The initial price is how much it costs just for the hilt; when you add sound, it adds the cost of the sound and lighting system. So yes and no.
Any issues with saberforge
I've had shipping delays from Saberforge multiple times.
I have a friend that makes lightsabers so if I want one made I go to him he also makes them cheaper then ultrasaber and look good work good
Mathew Moon Does he have a website?
@@potato1134 no he makes them every in a while
Mathew Moon is he still up and running? Does he have an account on some social media platforms?
Hes in Instagram
Lewiswoodby on Instagram
Who made the makes the Obiwan style saber in the centre screen of this video please?
Korbanth
Saberforge but can get pricy.
Cheap ultrasaber hilts are plain and need personlilasion from the buyer like hilt extensions and grips
Sometimes, 'plain' hilts make a nice, blank canvas for future customization. Depends on what someone is looking for. Thanks for watching!
I bought a grafter from aynranfan, is he trust worthy or has there been any problems with him?!
Jacob_mox13 0 Hes really good it’s park sabers marked down a lot
ZuberDuber ahh ok thanks just wondering as I don’t want to be scammed or something but I heard he’s popular
I Didn't get my pommel from Ultrasabers. And I don't know what to do.
Problem with Paypal goods & services is that the seller can get scammed by the customer just as easily as the other way round.
Happened to a friend of mine who sold a GPU for 1k. Buyer filed a claim that he received a shoebox with stones -> Seller had to give money back but also lost the GPU
Yeah I’ve preordered other stuff outside of lightsabers and I have had many issues
A whole video of her hands moving around. Okay then.
that's every video
Close your eyes,
@@Teaspoon9205 You don't have much of a grasp on the concept of video do you?
David Loveday yeah I didn’t watch the whole video lol.
my number one rule to ANY online purchase........... PayPal or nothing!
I never trust a website that doesn't have it, That's my hard earned cash on the line!! 😲💰💰💰
**Sabertrio is my favorite Saber company check them out!! ^3^
honestly kinda sick of people saying her hands are distracting. what you trying to focus on? bedsheets?
same
Who is she buying from? Never heard of anything like this? Seems like all her videos just seem to happen to her. But to be honest thats just common sense when you buy online to be careful.
I've heard some horror stories about SaberForge from a lot of people, particularly about either losing their orders in the mail, having to pay outrageous restocking fees if something needs to be sent back, and their orders being delayed for up to a year after they purchased their sabers.
One on left is the Grand Master from Ultrasabers
hi reat vid
5. SABERFORGE
6. ULTRASABERS
Never had an issue with either really.
I don't know about saber forge, but I got all my ultrasabers early. Love that company, but wish av switches are standard, because I want them.
@@collins3D I had 2 sabercore 3.0. One burned out and second died after uploading new soundfont.
@@MartasZLA I don't have any of their sound sabers. For the price I just went to Vader's vault or Genesis Custom Sabers.
Have no clue what u mean. My ultrasabers has had ZERO problems. Vader’s vault have reviews for better sabers, but Ultrasabers is good.
these are pretty much mistakes for buying anything online that any one with half a brain should know. Wish you had mistakes for buying light sabers specifically, like certain options you might choose that you shouldn't, like ordering next day shipping when you still have to wait over a month for it to be made.
morebakeder i was thinking the exact same thing. This video should of been called, How to use PayPal .
Caveat emptor!! 89sabers.....ahem!!
Charles Cowan you could buy from Korbanth, most of those hilts are 89sabers hilts these days.
@@booteefullmushtash8387 I have purchased several from korbanth and a few from saberbay on etsy. Aliexpress sells 89 hilts installed with proffie pixel for a very reasonable cost. With so many options these days there's really no reason to buy directly from 89. A year ago it was a different story.
Just use ultra sabers and i will be all good
Oof, this comment didn’t age well
I did go with ultrasabers and they screwed me. Got my saber with a malfunction and no response from them about it.. spent $600 on a broken item.
Robert Carter I’ve heard a few people who have had quality control issues during this particular period of time. Ultrasabers seems I’ll equipped to deal with the volume of orders and impacts of the corona virus at this time.
those waving hands are really distracting
I actually really like them, idk why
If they are distracting, close your eyes.
#1: Buy from Ultrasabers
