Have you considered making a museum and charging people to see / handle these beautiful pieces (to make some of the money back!) :-)

Yes, they had already ordered and paid the down payment for it but decided they needed the money instead. After they contacted me asking if I was interested in taking over their purchase we just spoke with weta and after I put down the 50% payment weta refunded them and I took over the order instead. It probably helped I’d bought swords from weta prior but they did let me do it.

If you end up deciding that you no longer want the sword and they haven’t begun work on it you could probably discuss a refund but there may be a non-refundable deposit that you could lose and then they could make the sword available to the public or someone that enquired but just missed the opportunity. Either way give them a jingle and see what your options are. Hope this helps.Last edited by Elestalrog; 14 September 2021, 06:56.

Stunningly sword! Beautiful belt! Makes my MC Glamdring look so amateur.
Are the runes on the crossbar in the “correct order” or switched like in the MC?Last edited by Aragorn; 17 September 2021, 01:18.
