Does Parks sell empty hilts ???
« on: May 09, 2012, 03:08:52 PM »
Hello all,

I sent an email out to parks sabers via there website.. I was just wondering if anyone here can answer this based on a slow return time. I'm looking to get one of there Phaeton(tm) empty hilts.  Its the Obi TPM one.  Does anyone know if they sell them that way and how much it would be ???     Thanks

Yes he does. They have prices at the bottom of each saber's page listing the price of an empty hilt.

EDIT: It looks like they took the prices down for empties. I would email him and see.

They don't really advertise selling empties. But if you ask really really nice he would. I would be interested in one as well. Let me know what you find out.

Oh, by the way, I just downloaded your "Unnatural" freebee onto my Igniter R2. Love it! I had a hard time assigning a blade color to it. I finally settled on a nice deep purple. Thanks for the free download!

I've asked many times on many occasions and the answer was always no. But I do wish you luck.

I've gotten a few various empties, the Phaeton being one of them, but that was a while back.  I did it via email however, so that'd be your best bet.

He was just selling a bunch of empty Obi combos on ebay last week. He had OBI ANH and Obi TPM for $400 for the set. I'm getting the TPM from a member who bought a set and only wanted the ANH. I think he was selling 10 sets.

I saw that, yeah.  I was looking for different hilts, though.

Just to get an idea for price, what did he charge you for the empty Obi TPM?

Is that how much he charges for an empty hilt? The auction for $400 for two made that an awesome deal. Glad I'm getting an Obi TPM for $200 then.
