hmm..but dunnoe when can finish....

anyway, i still have the question: I have info saying the elven sword is 5 ft long. Means that is the'actual' length, however the actor scale is not 5ft. Am i right? coz the sword we made is 5ft ++ a bit..nd its WAYYYY too long to handle...
noelchiew
too long? but the elven sword is long what isnt it????

oh so you are talking about making a berserker sword ah...

a look at how the anduril/narsil scabbard will look like

user posted image

i thought the belt strap in the middle should not be placed there. cos it blocks the view of the runes on the middle of the scabbard.
syuki
I think its ok there....if placed somewhere else would have looked weird..
bleahhh
hmm..whats the damage...?

FREE!!!

when you get the Anduril!

clap.gif


bleahhh
problem is i already have an anduril hangging outside my rm.....
noelchiew
then depends where you want to buy lor! local then caesars is cheapest now, they have special promo, but only for a short period. after that the usual price is not the cheapest around liao.

you hang the anduril on your room door outside??

syuki, they could, move the runes lower... just, that i dont like the belt strap blocking. but of course, now it's like that accept lor.

For those who are concerned with AITO,

I placed 2 large orders with AITO 3 weeks ago and spoke with Shannon on the phone a couple times, the last conversation was a couple weeks ago. The conversation was pleasant, and she seems very interested in you as a customer, and gave me the impression that she would take care of some of the issues I had with my order. I did request among other things over the phone that she not charge my credit card for my pre-orders until they actually ship to me, to which she replied 'ok'. After our phone conversation, which I felt pretty positive about, I also sent her a confirmation email of our conversation to confirm that she would remove any charges to my credit card for my orders until the actual items ship out to me. This was 2 weeks ago, and as of right now, 3-4 emails re-sent to her for confirmation, a PM to her directly on this board, and 3-4 voicemails for her to get back to me regarding this matter and I have yet to hear from her. I check my credit card and the charges are still there without any credit back as she stated she would do. As a customer, I read about the positives and negatives on AITO on these boards, and how she has responded from others by 'clearing the air' about her being a dealer with UC. I personally want to let the members know that I was positive about AITO when I spoke with her on the phone 2 weeks ago but after 2 weeks and several emails and voice mails left for her to fix the credit card issue, I find that the trust is not there between the buyer and seller and I am not confident in her and her company to do as they say they will do. I have requested a cancellation of all my orders from AITO.


Wonder whats going on...she has'nt replied my emails and PM's either...
noelchiew
Well, all of those who have never bought from them are making a gamble on AITO now...

seems they were ok to trust. seriously i dont know. i would think they have just too much sales to handle, but at least email would just take longer to reply, not none at all. the only mail i received from her is to let her know how i want my orders ship and she replyed no problem.

she used to reply my pm at the lotrg board but now nev heard from her for quite some time. but if it's really a scam then this scam is really on a large scale. imagine just how many ppl have ordered from them. i also dont know how they can get away with it.

sure enuff, it has to come from a LOTRG newbie with only 4 posts... duh.gif


anyway, this is what I received from Shannon, email dated Oct 29:

QUOTE
AITO members,

EMAILS are down. Since some issues have arised about AITO and who we are. It seemed to be funny to some people to flood us with virus's. I do have virus protection software but for some reason at the moment I am unable to receive emails at orders. In the event of this mishap we were able to find out and track where it came from.

I placed a phone call with another retailer. I am sure you all know of
whom I am speaking about. I am VERY upset, angry, and not a happy camper. I will be taking the rest of the day off. I am at a breaking point, over worked, and I need to think about what I will be doing about all of this. I can not have it, some one trying to literally shut me down and run me out of business.


of cos if AITO is really a scam, they may also be smart enuff to give excuses in advance.

but I have faith in them... smile.gif

the way I see it, they're just bogged down by underhand competitions.

syuki, have you tried to PM ccb25, becos this is what shannon said in AITO forum on Nov 01

QUOTE
We are working on the VIP section of the site. We need all returning customers of AITO to please PM our moderator ccb25 with what username you want to use at this section of the site. Once we get all usernames situated and the section complete you will be given a temp. password and once you are logged in you will be able to change your passwords.

Please do not PM me at the moment I am working hard on getting this section up and running and if you PM or email me I will not respond. I have been slammed with emails beyond my control and we are working hard on getting all this situated our servers have froze twice on us this AM.


syuki
I'm faster than you mate...read that message and PMed him...

anyway heard that AITO's email is down..
noelchiew
alamak, he's only a newbie? haha...ok...

so how? does it mean those ppl who ordered recently did not get it thru to them?

does it mean they will not get the orders or it is there, just that they cant access it???

so what i do now is pm that ccb25 person at aito forum with my username? i have yet to register at their forum.
Sky

Hey guys-- do you think its a good idea to send my UC Narsil COA to John Howe for him to autograph it...
noelchiew
well, you got to tell us how is the procedure like. there's a risk of course that the cert would not retain it's original conditon when shipped to there and back.

i already have a cert signed by him, the shards of narsil one. maybe i should send him my LE anduril cert?
syuki

Pardon my ignorance but did John Howe design Anduril???? If not, then why do you need his sig.

I'll try to find a safe way to ship it. smile.gif

Might send him either one of his illustrated book or the Art book as well.
noelchiew
aint narsil, shards of narsil, anduril the same sword?????

just a comment that's all. how do you get this done?
syuki
Well, I dont remember John mentioning Anduril in any of his interviews. When asked what sword he desingned he only mentions Narsil.
noelchiew
but anduril is just the narsil with the runes. nev mind...
Sky
for those who can't wait for UC to release the Prologue (Second Age) Elven Sword and Shield, get this
