I made a saber from hardware store parts (a very crude one) in middle school, before Epi I. I wish I knew where it was.
Short of that, my Ebay screenname is jedi_without_a_lightsaber, as I initially signed up for ebay when I was younger to find a graflex to convert. Back then, many camera collectors put "will not sell to bidders with Star Wars screen names of items in their bid history." Silly me.
I think the prices have gone down since MR started producing, though, haven't they?

the prices have dropped a bit. Most of the real Graflex tubes sell for $100-$150 depending on condition. The replicas usually sell for $75-$100, depending on the manufacturer.

AS of late, I have seen quite a few Graflex's on Ebay. Quite pricy still though...unless you go for the older modles...more of the Hieland (sp?)....or older Vader stlye such as this here.....

I have never seen a real non-converted hieland flash on ebay that has the same pieces as the one they used in ANH. Most flash handles I find are like the one in the above post. Ive seen them go for little more then $30.

I would love to know where to find a cheap graflex. I've been looking at all the yard sales I've ever been to. Nobody has one, and Ebay is too expensive at nearly 200 dollars on average.
