I am a collector of Zippo, I can not call myself a collector, though I have more than a hundred models as I collect different models, the ones that like, not adhering to a specific topic. Collection consists mostly of models 2000 - 2012 period, all new. Sam never smoked and do not want to smoke, so I think all my Zippo will remain untouched. In connection with the above, the next question is - how to keep the lighter, so that they retain their original state? Is it worth to take out long-term storage flint, which someone here on the forum said that he (flint) subject to corrosion, and eventually (if you do not use a lighter) blows up and scores.

stickers and silicon respectively better lift and remove. often had to tear off the remains of pouring gasoline dried sticker and hollowing out of the tube of silicon.

Why do not you believe? You can in fact begin to mindlessly collect, buy, collect a decent bunch and still do not know any history, or any other things. As far as I understand your distrust caused by that disparity: The guy's 100 zip, and he in them almost fumbles? I've got a 93-94, it was also a couple of dozen, but more or less understand them, I learned a couple of years ago, when wandered into this resource.

Photos necessarily lay, give a little time! Zippo serious about hobbies, Gorynych5 rights seriously began collecting in January 2011, so that one can say that I am still new to this, but so manic, I did not notice as their number exceeded one hundred. This is due to the fact that the idea of ​​collecting Zippo nurtured for more than ten years, and only after the release of Internet resources for the implementation of annealing, began seriously to do, all the free money is invested in Zippo, often climbs into debt. Now it has become more selective, have become more interested in the rare models. Despite its small experience, the authenticity of the models are 100% sure, because before the first purchase as Old learned all found in the vast Internet, for which many thanks, and this website. When asked about keeping Zippo could answer only people who are on my personal experience it proverilii, once again thank you to them for the answers! Ugh, I Choate razpiz ... talk)))
