I wish I would have known you guys were into ZIPPO's sooner. I shrunk my collection down a couple hundred, but still have some and I'm sure It will increase. I'll try to put a few pics of some up and prices (shipped US/ overseas will be extra) but the priceswill definately be same or lower than ANY stores buy them. Even have some Harley-Davidson editions. Be patient w/ my pic posting but I will post them and let me know if this sounds like somethingyou'ld be interested in. Also I have Zipplights whichare Genuine ZIPPO Lighter cases w/ flashlights inserts (very handy) that can be pulled out and swapped w/ the lighter insert. Think of them as bodies for your bits ( or in this case..ZIPS) with a headlight.

hummm just go outside and fill it then if she gets pissed just take it like a man cuz hell you're lighter is full now lol and if she's easy to persuade then just say that lighter fluid is less volitile than regular gasoline in her car. other than that man you're on you're own i guess LOL or you could just get you're friend to fill it ummm "with out you knowing" u know he was borrowing it to take a picture of cuz he has a good digicam and he realized it was empty so he filled it for you. it's all in the bs man just bs you're way outta it.

good luck

I just got a zippo... Not sure if it is real or not, and it was free! I found it in the drawer beside my computer

I got a question... If it is empty, can I fill it with gasoline?

Another question... Hehe, how do I refill it? When I take it out, there is the spot for the flint, and there is another one, it is a little oval with some insulation or something there. Do I put it in there?

lol audi... ur mom wont let you fill it? how's she gonna know...? just dont play with it when she's around =P

i use zippo fluid.... gasoline tends to explode, blowing the inside out of the case... (a bad thing, btw)

xatu, there's a foam or cotton cap-thing, that covers the bottom of the inside. just lift that up and squeeze the fluid onto the white cotton.. make sure you dont let it leak =)

you can buy flints at the local cigar shop... but replacing them's a slight pain in the ass.... i've never been good at it
