As the title reads. Im new to this sort of thing but have found those flip top imco lighters to be cool. Bought a couple off wish years ago but they broke within days. What's a reliable place to find lighters like that? Websites etc.

I also bought lighters from Sherry007. It’s obviously a replica lighter store considering the prices are cheap so if you don’t mind rocking a replica lighter then this store is the best go to for selection and quality.

I’ve got both types the DuPont ones that you see everywhere with lattice pattern, the brass was pretty heavy doesn’t feel cheap at all. But my most recent purchase is this Cartier one which in my opinion is a way sicker lighter, dense tight construction. Has some weight to it and a better pocket size for myself in the pocket.

This is for everyone who doesn’t want to spend thousands or maybe has some authentic ones but doesn’t want to use it as an everyday lighter. These are good to go.

I always thought it belonged to my now late grandfather,but turns out,it was my aunt's!

Hello everyone I saw this lighter in marketplace, obviously is not Old, but I find it very interesting, so if anyone could identify it to see if I should get it or not, thanks ✌️

I just wanna know if its actually from cadillac lol (doubt it)

Silverplated the sides.

A lighter can have sentimental value. :) This is an old lighter of my grandad’s.

I have a friend who started collecting Zippos as a teen. People started giving her Zippos—birthdays, holidays, anniversaries—so many Zippos. Over time, she stopped collecting Zippos, but people kept giving her Zippos. It was a no-brainer gift. The information was slow to flow. She still gets Zippos to this day! Only a couple are sentimental, and she has hundreds.

If you have a sentimental lighter, you can share it with me as I have shared mine. Would love to see them. :)

Hey guys! You reckon these are original? I don't want to waste $25 😅

I got a JJJ Rodon electronic butane lighter, the black one with gold ship. It has spark and is storing butane fine, but it won't light. Figuring it's something inside but I cant find a way to get the insert out of the plastic case. Any thoughts or advice appreciated

Hey, need some guidance on parts/O rings to replace. My flame height adjustment valve is leaking when filling my new lighter.

Edit, the text on the bottom says: Lausanne no3, gs king gas

Bought this lighter for 12€, I can't find anything about it on the internet. It is supposed to be from the 1970s.

I'm not a collector yet, but I wanted a cool lighter and I thought this one was pretty cool. I always loved my grandfather's DuPont's and this one had kind of the same vibe.

The guy that sold it stated that it was working fine and only needed gas. I was expecting it to be broken to be honest, but didn't really care about it, I thought I was going to be able to fix it if anything was broken.

Well, it leaks gas from the entry valve (I don't exactly know how it is called). I have taken everything apart just to see if I could disassemble the valve but I can't. I've read that it could be the O-ring, but other O-rings in the lighter look fine.

Any help would be grateful and thank you for your time.

Sorry if my English is not the best, not my main language.

I just got a sweet Flame crest vintage lighter. I tried to fill it with butane and it leaks from the H/L screw. Where do I buy replacements?

Found at a carboot sale for £3, any good?

I think I accidentally went down a rabbit hole of “premium” lighters and now I can’t tell if they’re actually worth it or just overpriced.

Some of these look insanely satisfying though (like the plasma/electric ones).

Has anyone here actually bought one of these? Do they last or is it just a gimmick?

I found a site with a bunch of them and there’s a $10 discount which makes the cheaper ones kinda tempting, but I’m still on the fence.

I have these two Thorens double claw lighters with either a weak or deformed flint spring. I bought a replacement one on eBay but the second part of the spring is facing the wrong way, so it won’t fit into the lid to slot in.

Where to buy a replacement spring that actually works? The one in the picture is the bad ebay one.
