I'm approaching six weeks on the Etsy order. If I am lucky, then that might be half way at best.

I'm just over 8 weeks into waiting for my 3rd SF saber and trust me when I say: it doesn't get any easier the more sabers you have haha. I'm hoping that my saber officially ships within the next week or so, but we'll see what happens.

The Wait Begins....... 1 day 2 minutes ago #23759

Hi everybody!

Well, they are not exactly my first sabers, but they certainly qualify as such.

Placed an order for an Epoch and a Venom. They are arriving at the begining of february.

It feels somehow comforting to see that I'm not the only one in the "Patience Training Program" but i can't help feeling like a father of twins at the hospital's waiting room.

For the most of what I have read in forums both the investment and the long wait are worth it.

First thing I do when they arrive is to change the Profile's photo for one with the real stuff instead of a marker in my hand with a Photoshoped blade. :whistle:

Received a pre shipment notice a week ago so crossing fingers I'll get it by the end of the month but after reading posts I shouldn't hold my breath. At least I hear it's worth it.

Yeah dig in for the long haul my friend. I've been in pre-shipment for over a month now. Don't know if my case is the norm, but thought I'd give you some perspective.

Waiting for first saber here too...ordered towards end of Sept and got the pre-shipment notification last week. I'm guessing another few weeks at least. I'm super excited and not trying to think about it, lol.

It's great to see that many are on the same boat as I am. Hopefully, our wait will be over soon so that we can enjoy our sabers!

Yeah, I'd send them a message about that because that's out of the norm. Hope it gets to you soon dude!
Hope is not lost today. It is found.

Yeah there is nothing wrong with sending a polite email after that much time, estimate means, 'this is about when we will get you your stuff,' it does not mean, 'we can take an amount of time well in excess of what we stated.' While there have been many people who have been impatient I think that because of the response to that other people err too far on the side of caution. As a customer who plunked down your hard earned cash (and a sizable amount IMO) you have a right to say something similar to, "Pardon me but my order is well past the estimated time frame, could you give me some insight as to why or an updated estimate of when I might expect a status change." A lot of people have jumped on SF unjustly in the past but by that same token they should not get a free pass to not remain at least somewhat within their estimates. IMO, no business should. I would think 2 weeks past the 10 days is more than sufficient to make an inquiry, just be polite about it.

Anyway I am awaiting my order with my first and second sabers. An Indigo 12w+ Fury and a Cyan 12w+ Initiate with an extra blade to make it a shoto (both with quick connects).
