Try to access the hosts a point where they sell Zippo. Sellers sometimes do not know what this is, this canister. Sometimes people say we have the goods on sale and to order anything you can not (because they mean "want", so they bought Zippy). There are clever traders - with a girl I will call the owner of the point and asked about the possibility to order a canister. 15 seconds was the answer: no question, somewhere in the delivery month. As with any model of lighter, can also be made to order.

Thanks :) The very cover, high polished, absolutely do not like: Lighter slide in the hand like a piece of soap and scratched. A carrier, yes, cute ... Seeing it took at once (just like to fly on a flight simulator in the F-18, and on board an aircraft carrier at all a labor of love :)).

The only thing that upset - I used it 2 months, and it was necessary to put in the box but on the shelf. What now did. But the original plastic was not, and even insert the same year as the housing, but not native and released later the body (the seller before me inserts the request of other buyers).

Roughly, as I understand, you and collect only vintage. (Now I know who to attach this Zippo 20 years ;))

You really can of intermeddle two refueling? I have one without overflow maximum.

Always see a kanistrochku in one store, where he bought already five or six zippo (they often are the ones that I like the design.) Still thinking to buy. Now again I think ... On the one hand - a useful thing, especially if the boat or go to the woods for a long time to go. On the other hand - something China is not inspiring ... I'll have to ask in the shop, whose production they usually have everything zippovskoe "native."

botas, a beautiful 558 Golden Glory 1997! I like here are the plates, but no images with texture. Zippo in the brake still have a nice weight. In and of themselves, and in the cover, as it opens and closes. Solid so convincingly.

A high-polish Zippo is probably purely collectibles. Really fast scratch, acquiring the patina of time is not pleasant, but just sloppy appearance.

solobok, thanks :)

As for cans - take. Yes - it is the Chinese, yes - burrs, yes - the screwdriver stamp curve purely Chinese. But she will not zaparivatsya with gasoline even five days, if you sit in the country, for example.

If it was not the Chinese, and the U.S., the cost would not be 20-25 bucks, and all the 50, IMHO.


And about the Golden Glory 1997 - in the shop there is still such, but on the other blotches, $ 38. You can discuss this topic. Write to the PM.

Cling pictures of those lighters that saw

What about the availability of native box while not say anything, it is necessary to come to see. Zippy brought from UAE in the late 90's, there is no instruction in Russian. Condition - new. Old stock.

Well chrome coating material after all, looks very nice, but at the hands of Maran very much, but it is not even important, but the scratch with a Zippo is inevitable even if cheholchik wear always, alas Frown . But I'd love her to be a collection of privatized Laugh

Ure, wandered through internet forums and came across a little funny, quote -

Moderator -

"Recently purchased the camera Canon 400D. In a short time already shot a bunch of pictures and now thinking if I do not combine business with pleasure. That is part photographing weddings. With the practice of photographing familiar firsthand - had a decent experience shooting with "Zenith". I estimate that it takes. The lens is available until just a whale, I understand that we need a different, but not now pull. Is it possible to just a whale? Need an external flash, the money kept going for 6-8 thousand, advise, what better to take. Optional memory card and battery purchase. What more is needed? Tripod with a "cable" - I do not know?, I do not have to have ... "

Answer a wedding photographer:

"Recently bought a knife at the store medical equipment. In a short time has already slashed leather sofa, and nearly slaughtered his dog, and now thinking if I do not combine business with pleasure. And it worked a heart surgeon. With the practice of surgery familiar firsthand experience was decent opener. I estimate that it takes. Scalpel until nezatochen and only one, I understand that we need a different, but not now pull. Is it possible to make only one scalpel coronary artery bypass grafting? We also need a hemostat, the money kept going for 6-8 thousand, advise how best to take. Cotton swabs and buy myself. What else do you need for surgery? Trocar cavitary and tissue forceps do not know, I do not necessarily have.

Does not it remind people who bought hair dryer for 5-6 rubles and immediately imagined themselves masters ;-). '

Yeah :))))

here are enthusiasts and then knock the price of services ... "mnogostanochnikov": in his right hand - a cheap digital video camera around his neck - a cheap camera. Manages to simultaneously work with video and photos. If the left arm to the accordion, then surely it is also able to play at the wedding.

Personally observed acrobat: in his right hand a cheap camcorder - neck neavtofokusnym film SLR with lens and shutter setting lever (as "Zenith"). And he shoots the video and left hand manages to cock the shutter and take pictures! It was in the presentation of diplomas at one high school, there were many other photographers, but this feature is constantly climbing them in the frame.
