Title: Very cheap sword hangers
Post by: Sir James A on 2013-05-15, 23:14:01
I found a place for those "scissor" type self-centering sword hangers. Normally they're around $12 each + shipping from Museum Replicas. Some places have them around $8-$10 shipped.

$3.25 each, and shipping is reasonable!

I got 20, which was $65, and shipping was only $14. Slightly less than $4 each, very reasonable!

That is good. I bought a 10-pack for about $25 a number of years ago, but it was a rare find (on ebay or something). $3.25/each is great.

Huh; the site works but when I go to buy, its blocked.  I'll do it from home...this is the best price for these that I've seen thus far.  And it beats using nails for the same purpose.

Wow, yeah, that is cheap. I'd been looking for some for a while, without much luck; around $7 each was the best I had found.

Yep, and with nails, it has to be perfectly even to hang right vertically. The single-screw way these work makes it almost completely self-adjusting, no level needed.

I figure they'll work for angled setups too, since they've got just the one screw.  Awesome.

So I ordered 20 of these back in May. I got 4 of them, and the rest was backordered. They just came a couple days ago. That's a 3 month wait time, and I didn't know they were back ordered until I got the first shipment, which had 4 and a note saying "16 backordered", with no specific ETA. After a while they said Aug 1st, then a few days after said "any time". They did answer the phone when I called, just took longer than I expected to get them.

Not a nice delay, but glad they finally came through!
