What's weird is that the first photo in that article showed a saber by the same guy who sold one on eBay for over $2K today. We're talking about it over on the Graflex 2.0 thread...

I can't see how an article telling how a guy is making his living selling lightsabers could come to any good. I'm guessing he's going to get a letter from Disney.

Parks has been doing it for far longer. He just renames the sabers and keeps on selling.

Yeah, but he's not bragging that he sold one or more for $18k! I don't know why you'd pay anything like that for anything that wasn't actually in a movie.
