[quote="Lagmonster"]I recognize the hilt in that image. It's one of the 'Katana 2000' or 'Ninja 2000' series katanas from www.swordsonline.com
It's a real sword, actually, sharpened and all. But it doesn't have so much as a light bulb in it. It's basically a scam.

'Real' lightsabres are usually EL blades that affix to a piece of PVC piping, and while you can duel with them, they're hardly impressive tech. www.parksabers.com if you want to see the best in 'hobby sabres'.

I bet people saw the word "Xbox" and didn't notice the "box" after the "Xbox".

Perhaps if every bid ended with something being sold for 100x it's origional price, any auctioneer could make a big profit. Hey, you could ejaculate in a cup, sell it online as "a cup of semen", and at least onep person owuld want it.
