The last email I received from Kevin G @ Saberforge via Etsy for my Hero Tier Vengeance that went into Shipped status on November 20th is that build times were currently averaging 15-25 working days (Mon-Thurs).
Unfortunately I do not have an exact ship date for you at this time. There is currently a 10-12 week lead time from the date of your order, until it arrives to you. Once your item is in “shipped status”(current state), we generate the shipping label and tracking number, and the saber moves into the build que. Normally, from this point it generally takes 5-10 business days (Mon-Thurs) for the saber to be completed and physically shipped out, but due to an extremely high volume of orders, the ship time is currently between 15-25 days. We hope to have this down again soon, but thank you for your continued patience in the meantime. It is greatly appreciated.
Hope this helps, and may the Forge be with you!
Kevin G.
I'm sure it'll come back down to the more common 5-10 days at some point but between that backlog now and the nightmare with Christmas shipping I think we are all in for a wait.
This is verbatim what he wrote to me, plus he didn't even answer some of my other questions. It could lead one to believe he's not even reading messages and just auto responding.
Mine have been in build status since November 12th, best thing seems to try very hard and forget about your Saber or set a long projected date with a reminder to email them about your order it seems. I've been trying hard myself to stay off these boards. While I'm happy people are getting their Sabers that ordered after me it does bum me out a little.
