force fx sabers

[toystalker]

thinking of getting me the star wars force fx saber collectin

i just got the yoda one and loving it

im thinking of contacting 1 or 2 of my buddies here and seeing if i can save money by buying from the u.s ?

they are already cheaper to purchase in dollar on ebay.com but one joker quoted me $150 shipping for one

so what im wondering is, is ebay the best place to grab them or do the stores have them in stock there?

i know my good mate bry would hook a brother up but i need to know if i can get them cheaper with purchase + postage rather than paying the ridiculas uk over inflated prices here

if the sabers are your thing and your up on prices could you let me know how much they are or point me in the right direction

cheers

I had been looking these up a couple of months ago for a buddy of mine and I saw they good prices on ebay,so just log onto the US ebay and check em out

The overseas shipping is the difficult part as these cases are longer than the usps 'standard'. That is where the big $$ for shipping comes from.
My wholesaler (who does not always have the best prices) is showing about 370 for a case of 4. There are several different case assortments. i.e. 4x Yoda sabers, or 2x Vader, 1x Luke, 1x Kenobi. etc. Shipping is still the problem. I would have to look into drop shipping them to you via fedex and what that would be per case. I have a feeling it would still be pretty pricey without buying in some SERIOUS bulk.

I managed to pick up the Darth Vader one for £46 as the box was damaged from my local toys r us,the Yoda one looks great

Toystalker,why not wait until the January sales?May get a few bargains

[starsky]

i think by then then the novelty will wear off! the sabers are very well made and i love the sound fx and vibrating feature. but after a while, i got bored with it.

A lot depends on which model you want as far as the price goes but I think Ebay will be your best option. I got an Anakin sabre in Woolworths earlier this year for £40. It looks great on the wall in the kids playroom.

Some of the big fairs could be good too - Memorabilia or the like.

yeah i have a stall at the memorabilia next weekend so ill be sure to check out the sabers there

im hearing that hasbro has taken over the next wave os sabers, with new features but i dont see the mace windu one

but at least it may drive down the price of the obi 1 as they plan to make bucket loads of obi 1 as where master replica decided to keep the numbers low on that model

aww well at least i have a fair chance of set together now

I'm hoping to make the trip down on Saturday - How would I recognise you or your stall (kitchen sink Aquaman perhaps?). It would be good to put a face to a name.
