| is it me or has Caesars reduced the price of its swords? swords like Herugrim would have cost $420 for members, now its $390. |
tats rite.. i was pleasantly surprised too... think its the same price over @ sheares too...

they must have gotten wind of Sheares thus they reduced the prices. they were selling their swords for $420 for members for so long why reduce the price now. I have a feeling they found out about Sheares thru' our forum

oh really? seems like they noticed the existance of sheares and the prices are too much of a competition for them eh? hope someone here can confirm all their swords prices have been lowered to the same of sheares.

actually caesar's prices are rather inconsistent... they kinda pegged their prices on the blades' perceived demand... for instance, i remember getting glamdring, sword of witchking all @ 390, whilst other swords, like ringwraith @ 420...
oh.. and of cos, they know of the existence of sheares, heard from someone tat sheares pioneered the trade in replica swords...

yeh, quite true. sometimes i think the swords by right should be selling at the same price as others but it wasnt that case. also smaller swords should cost cheaper by sense but it seems sting and hadhafang's price wasnt much difference from the bigger sized ones i think. if not i would have bought them long ago.

tats rite.. i was most unhappy with the prices for hadhafang and sting @ caesar's...
UC's RRP for those 2 was much less than the RRP for the standard long swords...
so.. i got my sting elsewhere...(but alas, just b4 they had tat half price for sting gimmick) and yet to get my hadhafang...

hey guoyi! just been to caesar's site, the anduril scabbard costs $345 and not $315? some of the other products had diff prices as stated by you? though they said it was tentative retail price. they even said due to arrive is the mini hadhafang, been waiting long for this. noble came out theirs long ago, didnt know why uc took so long.
and also, they mentioned bringing in MR's lotr range EXCEPT their sting. damn... why is this so... i would love to have that.

not sure how Caesars are gonna fill their orders for the MR LOTR items. this was posted by an online retailer by the name of CBSwords. they received the notification from Master Replica.
Dear Authorized Retailers & Distributor Partners,
We are disappointed to announce that we will not be able to fulfill orders on the following products because they are not scheduled for production:
LOTR Gandalf the White Staff (LR-102)
LOTR Light of Earendil (LR-101)
Star Wars FX Jacket (SW-400 series)
We apologize for the change in the 2004 production schedule.
so it looks like MR will not be producing GTW's staff and Light of Earendil this year.
