Happy wife, Happy Life. When the wife is not happy life can become err, much less happy.  ;D

Oh, I live by this credo as well!  It's quite simple as you know.

Wow, I really shouldn't do it with a wedding to plan... but geez. If they're any good at all, that's a damn nice price. I think I'll snag a set! That'll solve one of the pieces I need for my mid-14th kit when I get back to working on it.

Well, they refunded my money, saying they had sold the last pair a few hours before I grabbed it on ebay. I guess they had advertised them in multiple places or something. Oh well!

Yeah, it doesn't look like one of their regular items. I may go back to looking for a good set of Wisby's.

I'd email Eyal (Azerad, proprietor) and see if he'd be willing to take it on commission for the same price.  Can't hurt to ask, he's a pretty personable guy, at least he was the last time we spoke.

Yea, he'll let seconds go at lower prices...sometimes you'll find some of his swords at $100 less or more because of things like the centerline of a fuller might be off, or the scabbard's not totally up to par.  Their scabbards have improved leaps and bounds over their initial offerings as well.
