MayTheForce Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 Hi everyone, Last weekend a maker made a "buy 1 get 1 free" armor deal. The time I asked about it in different threads, it disappeared, making me look like a fool. After inquiring directly to them, they said they removed the direct offer and this deal would be usable with a coupon only from now on.The coupon apparently is 1FOR1 and can be used for their armor kit here : http://www.fnarmour.com/product/fn-armour-kit/It looks like it's working but I'd like to know :Has anyone order with them before ?Tried this 1 for 1 deal before ?Does it work ?Have you received 2 kits when you ordered one ?How long did it take ?Well, you get the point. Please let me know if you have any information. Thanks ! PS : this is not a discussion about recasting controversy - There are plenty of threads talking about the subject and I've read loads. I don't want a furious war starting here. So, please refrain from discharging resentments / judgement / opinions not related to my questions. Quote
T K[501st] Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) Interesting.. I have not heard of anyone doing this, or even about the deal. Edited October 4, 2016 by T K Quote
MayTheForce Posted October 4, 2016 Author Report Posted October 4, 2016 Interesting.. I have not heard of anyone doing this, or even about the deal. Yes indeed. I just want to know if it does work. Apparently people arleady bought from there, so, they do exist and do send stuff. But unsure about this special deal. Quote
kman[TK] Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 I would read this thread before you order this armor: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/39048-fn-armour-worth-it-tfa-builds/ and http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/38117-clints-fnarmour-analysis/ Kevin Brice, owner of KB Props and a valued local 501st member, put an immense amount of time, not to mention blood, sweat and tears, into hand sculpting his very own molds for FO TK armor, to sell them to fellow fans. FN Armor got a set of his armor, and took it to a factory to use as a base for cheap knock-offs overseas. (and did a poor job of many of those parts, too) The ethics of the situation are quite clear. 3 Quote
Lichtbringer Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 The ethics of the situation are quite clear. Right. Avoid both. Quote
kman[TK] Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 Right. Avoid both. So in your opinion Anovos is the ONLY option for anyone to buy any armor from? Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 So in your opinion Anovos is the ONLY option for anyone to buy any armor from? jimmiroquoi has had some really great reviews so far, but not sure about availability. Quote
T K[501st] Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 jimmiroquoi has had some really great reviews so far, but not sure about availability. There's a set of his armor for sell here and it's listing is on eBay. Quote
T K[501st] Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) ------------- So if you want jimmys kit without the wait. Edited March 5, 2021 by gmrhodes13 link not working, removed gmrhodes13 2021 Quote
kman[TK] Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 jimmiroquoi has had some really great reviews so far, but not sure about availability. I believe he is implying that any non-licensed armor is to be avoided. KB is not a recast. Neither is Jim's. Only FN is the problem, as I see it, unless the hang up is licensed armor, which has not been a real issue for the entire history of the 501st, since it simply didn't exist until Anovos came on the scene just last year.

Lichtbringer Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 So in your opinion Anovos is the ONLY option for anyone to buy any armor from? No. They are the only legal option, but they have their own share of problems.. It´s more that Kevin is, due to his behaviour, absolutely NO option. Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted October 4, 2016 Report Posted October 4, 2016 I find this particular statement in the listing absolutely ridiculous, as well as misleading: For legal reasons we can only sell this armour kit if you are from or think of joining the 501st or any private fan clubs. By buying this kit, you agree to that. Thank you for your understanding. Perhaps he meant "For legal reasons we can only sell this armour kit if you are NOT from or think of joining the 501st or any private fan clubs. By buying this kit, you agree to that. Thank you for your understanding. Quote
themaninthesuitcase[Admin] Posted October 5, 2016 Report Posted October 5, 2016 I think that statement comes from an outsider not actually understanding the situation they are getting into. Same goes for not checking the heritage of the bucks. The 2-4-1 deal is apparently to clear the stock after the re-casting became clear. Quote
fnarmour Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 The 2 for the price of 1 deal is on again for the rest of November and is subject to limited stocks. The 2 for 1 deal is for guys that dont want to wait 1 year to get thiers or pay a stupid price for it. $899 for 2 armour kits in stock and free economy shipping. Payment by Paypal so you get the usual buyer protection and confidence. fnarmour.com Quote
