The Armour Archive

Well, I didn't want to do it this way... but the proceeds from my last super sale were eaten by my car and the dentist and the power bill... so... gotta keep a roof over mine and my kids heads so to get ready for the long painful slow fall/winter season... I'm having another SUPER SALE!!!

Prices like the last one
celtic helm 125
crusader helm 175
barrel helm (eyeslot or open face) 70
gorget 20
shield boss 20
elbows 20
norse helm 150 (pic coming soon)
norman helm 175 (pic coming soon)

Note, these are not in stock items. Plan on perhaps slightly over 30 day wait. Payment in advance is required. Payment by Paypal or money order is fine.

For all those with orders from the previous sales, I'm getting out 1-2 orders per day, so yours is coming up quickly if I haven't talked to you already.

Well, I can see this is going to be a big sale...

I would like one of your Celtic helms, unfortunately I still need to sell my stuff for the money. I hope im not the only one that wants one.

Heilsa Otto,

Can you please send me an update status on my helm? It was the norse helm with slat back I ordered back in early July.

Much appreciated!

PM also sent to you.

I'm interested in a gorget...would you be able to post or send me pics of what your's look like?

Highland war out here in caid will be my first time officially fighting in armor so i'm currently making my own but would be good to buy one that is made by someone that knows how to do it more period and right hehe.

Thanks in advance!
Ludwig

Hey Ludwig, congrats on fighting at Highland! Don't overheat.

Here's Otto's website (there's also a link on the sig line of his post):

Thanks for the link and ohhhhhhh I want the gorget now!!! All metal that's awesome!

Ludwig

Oh hey...

anybody placing an order and especially if you pay through paypal... please include your order info and your archive name in with the payment.

Sometimes it can get difficult when the archiver talks to me under one name, pays under another, and sends e-mails under a 3rd. It can be difficult to connect it all up in those cases (and trust me, it happens like that more often than you think).

Just to be sure, Stainless steel is NOT an option? Nor do you make a bascinet?

I used the make the "banded" and "scalloped" bascinets for Mike at Stonekeep, but I don't think he carries them right now.

So yeah, I can do a bascinet but the top and bottom are rivetted together as it's a 12 ga. top from Ironmonger.

Stainless is do-able. I charge extra for it though.

still recovering from Pennsic costs but how long will you be offering said sale?

Well, I hoping to be done with it before the end of the month... but so far, I've got no takers..

can you send me or post pics of the gorget
Thanks

Pictures of all the items I make are available on my site at www.ottosarmoury.com

Money order sent for gorget today woohoo!!!

Oooo

Not getting much action on this one...
Otto doesn't want to live in a tent...

so c'mon,

swing batta batta swing!

Oooo.. a swing and a miss, strike three, batter's out!

Next Batter?

Hey man. When I sell my guitar in the next couple of days I'll be able to order that gift I pm'd you about.

PM sent on a Norman helm.

G+

Hey Otto, sorry to do this, but my wife is wondering where her new helm is at. She and I ordered a barred barrel helm and two gorgets a while ago. (She's tried to email you a few times...) Please email or PM. Thanks

Vilhelm on behalf of Lady Christiana

Vilhelm, no worries... the customer ALWAYS has the right to inquire.

If you would, please e-mail me at sbvast@yahoo.com with the name payment was sent under and I'll research your order.

buy now, buy often.

pretty please!

Wow, I think this sale is a swing and a miss.

I'm not looking forward to the fall/winter season this year.

Otto, you were saying you'd let me know on Tuesday whether or not my helm and elbows were finished.

I sent a PM and haven't heard anything. Can I get an update?

PM Sent

OK, answered all the pms...
sorry I'm running a little bit behind, but I'm working to correct that now.

Sent a PM a couple of days ago, no answer as of yet.

Sorry DeCalmont... you posed me a question which required thought... and sometimes I set those aside for a few days while I ponder my answer.

Sorry for being a bit slow on the reply, but you have it on the pm.

No problem, I just wanted to make sure you got it. Thanks for the reply, I'll pass it on and let you know.

Good golly, can't hardly give the stuff away this time.

I think many folks have the post-Pennsic "omg-I-spent-HOW-much?" blues, Otto... Sorry.

That's means I can get my gorget faster though right?

No, just means I'll try to make sure all the orders go out before time catches me.
