I was able to go onto the site, this time I didn't put www in. Ryan has a lot and at good prices too. I'll definitely check him out. Thanks!

I recommend that you go to your local camera shop, and ask who the "Camera Guy in town is.....tell him you need a GRAFLEX 3 cell flash for your grand dad's camera(most people dont like the idea of you cutting up a flash for a lightsaber) I was at "the camera guy's" house today and picked up the 3cell Graflex, and the MPP for 100 bucks! They are in better condition than the ones they sell on ebay! I am gonna order up my parts kits to complete them tomorrow.
I also constructed 4 other lightsabers using the parts from "the big yellow box" and they came out great..and they are getting better the more I make them. They cost about 12-15 bucks to make following the instructions. Good Luck!

Well, the line of "I want the Graflex 3 cell for my GrandDads camera.", doesn't work anymore. Just about every camera shop and dealer around the country knows what people are buying them for. Unless you manage to find a camera shop in some obscure little town that doesn't have internet access.

Worked for me...and I went back today with a little more money and bought a 2 cell GRAFLEX for 40 bucks, and a retainer.

What area do you live in? It may work once or twice here and there, but in most areas, they know why people want them. If you can get lucky, thats great.

Yeah I completely agree with Dave. You can decide from what I have seen its very poor quality. You can find a resin saber on ebay and paint it. That might be tricky though, depends on how good you are at painting. www.rlsasabers.com/This would be my suggestion, you might spend say 75, but you get a metal saber and the quality is pretty good. I got my first saber from these guys and its nice, blends well with the costume. Currently I am supposed to get my new saber from Random Sabers, it goes into production next week. Keep in mind I placed my order with them in Late Janruary Early Feb. So good luck. The first saber that I picked up after building my own was an RLSA saber. It was only when I decided that I wanted an EL saber that I stopped wearing it as much. I will be bringing it out of retirement at EP III as I want to wear both. Eki
