Not too long ago, masteryoyo 'lost' his lightsaber in a duel with Darth Sidious at the Senate building ...
now, an international ebayer is selling a mint MR Yoda ROTS lightsaber at USD250 + USD55 shipping. The total cost works out to be S$464.
Should masteryoyo grab the offer? Need some advice from both Jedi and Sith in this forum

tats abit too much for my to swallow... maybe they accept republic credits, no?
my advice is to get a normal one instead.

thanks for the input. btw, what is a "normal lightsaber"?
More fatcs: the usual recommended retail price is USD369 (S$560) without shipping. A local toy shop is selling it at S$644. Isn't the current price of S$464 WITH shipping attractive and a bargain?
masteryoyo seeks more negative inputs from this forum... he feels strongly drawn to the offer... needs more help to pull him back from the darkside of owning an expensive and "elegant weapon from a civilised age"

Exactly! That's what masteryoyo meant.
Buy locally is S$644. Buy overseas (incl shipping) is S$464. Not a bargain meh?

isn't this a better deal?

rebelscum is more ad hoc and good deals come once in a while. besides, most on offer are used lightsabers. masteryoyo prefers mint stuff loh...

mint means still in the factory-sealed ?

by masteryoyo
yes... factory-sealed with that nice 'newness' and 'freshness' smell...

since it's not opened yet, u won't know whether the item inside is in perfect condition or not, it might be damaged due to shipping from MR to the 1st owner. just my opinion though...
are u into lightsabers 1:1 collection ?
