Parks is out of stock permanately on what he called the older Graflex replica flash handle, the place he was getting them made, went out of business. This why he is making the Graflex 2.0 - which is built more like a saber instead of a graflex flash handle. I am securing a large number of these, and my order will get served first, and I'll be lower in price than his stock, so lower price, faster delivery... I think those are two good convincing reasons.
he will be $275-$325 with electronics prebuilt using the phase blade technology and no sound boards...there was a time when these were top of the saber food chain, but with less expensive loud powerful sound boards and luxeon super brite lighting, they have surpassed phase technology...so until parks gets out of the stone age, and into the more current technology all the other saber makers are using, his product is best purchased empty...
