ooomwahaha.

my brother wants one i'm pretty sure. will make sure as soon as i talk to him again. that's one for Spencer, and one for Jerry.

 

I forgot to log Liz off, hence the empty reply. Anyway: ME ME ME!!! I want one, please!!??!!. Yes, I am interested for sure. I'll pay you at practice saturday. -Jerry

 

well done, derek. thanks for jumping on that, there was just no way i could do it at that time.

if they are the heavy-duty ones, i would like another. depending on how they are weighted, the wookiee wants one or two. (if they are light, he only needs one... if heavy, he needs two... for even weight distribution.)

 

Yah, I can't be plowing through Jedi with unevenly balanced sabers...

 

The Shinai shipped on the 07-15-2005. So hopefully they will be here soon.

-Derek

 

kewl

 

YES!!!!

 

Way to go Derek on those shinai! We'll need 2 for sure but I cant afford it till after the first of August. I'd preciate it if you could hold onto a couple for us though.

The Shinai are in.... one was damaged and I will be attempting to get a hold of the vendor for a replacement.

I have the following reserved:

Derek - 2
Jerry/Liz - 2
Spencer - 1
Cheryl - 1
Greg - 1
Josh/Tarah - 2

Once the replacement is in... it's for Barry since he asked last night if I had an extra. Thats all of them. And they are the ones with the RED string... so I went and got some leather shoe strings to re tie them.

derek, the shinai are awesome, thanks you so very much for going to the trouble and the wait to get them for us. they are perfect! a HUGE round of appreciation!



and OMG, you should have seen jerry with his Very Own shinai... it was like josh with the Helmet all over again.

"...my preciousss, my own!"

 

hahaha, yes. I LOVE THE SHINAI. Since we started fighting, I had wanted my own, to stare at, the caress, to bash people with...just kidding. I am very grateful to derek for putting forth the effort to get them. I will reimburse you for ours.

 

Hello everyone...

As most of you already know, I bid on and won a 2ND lot of 10 Shinai on Ebay.

The replacement Shinai from the last lot and the 10 new lot arrived today.

All are up for sale @ $14.00 per unit. First come first serve.

-Derek

 

derek, i'll take another one. gave one of my heavier ones to Himself, so i can use another.

thanks again for scoring these! you know we appreciate it.

 

As a side note I got PAID yesterday, so Derek please to bring a nice shiny new shinai for me and I'll bring a nice shiny new monies for you.

Or at least a moderately believable forgery, provided you don't look too closely, and ignore the fact that Lincoln is wearing a cowboy hat and a pair of those googly-eyed slinky glasses....

 

thats one to buy gas with, also one for me too derek.

 

Tomarrow, bring them I will.

 

wait another week, i must. broke, i am.
