Good day, everyone.

Estimated by commercials in 1994 (or 1995), I got in Moscow polished, engraved Zippo (or depressed stamp) Image St. Basil's Cathedral (Pokrovsky Cathedral) and an inscription on from England, something like: "St.Basil Moscow ".

Though I showed this when using lighter due care and diligence, that did not stop people zlyam specified lighter I c3 14zdit.

Then there were more and more lighter, but that's the one with the Cathedral ... Ah!

Well, here.

Comrades, ladies and gentlemen, citizens, help me find a Zippo for sale.

To her yet this picture in the internet zazhigaki I have not found, but in the search came to such horror here http://www.goldengrail.com/goo ..... tails.html

Thanks in advance.

Please: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA ..... K: MEWAX: IT

Just do not ask me why such a price ... But in fact, it is a rare collector's set, one of the first Russian orders in general Zippo (Zippo entered the Russian market just in 1993-1994).

Thank you for your efficiency, but it's not the same.

I had Chrome (ie light) and the inscription was limited to the above. On the cover of all the inscriptions were not.

Apparently, you had a very rare specimen!

Are you sure that it was the original?

Welcome.

Well, at least I thought so until today.

Tell exactly where I acquired it, it is now I can not. Gave for it somewhere around 45-50 U.S. dollars in rubles.

All of the lighters were fitted perfectly, and therefore lighter when opening and closing to make sounds that can be identified as zippovskie.

Sincerely,

I think probably it was the original Zippo, but this is where to find - I have no idea. I'm afraid it is almost an impossible task ...

Yes price, by the way, is not the killing of four lighters (even including the cost of Perez (31.75) from California.)

Another question. It happens like that, "oh," and sometimes that understanding (and will) come after reflection or does not come at all. Here, in this case, the second option.

Have you had experience in the acquisition of a particular seller?

No, no ... it was better to Vladimir, maybe he was ... well, or someone from the other participants in the forum ...

if there is no particular desire, of course, do not themselves zastavlyat.Odin wise man once said to me :)

"Lighters in the world so much that you can choose a long and carefully, do not rush to the first favorite model."

the more, the price is certainly not joking! here, of course, is to think about, especially if the soul does not lie ...

No, this seller I did not buy anything. Well, in general, and the price here purely "an amateur." It seems excessive, but I was on the other side, and as such, these lighters are uninteresting. Maybe someone thinks that price and normal (although this set is already seems a few months ... this is a sure sign that he is no use for the money.)

Judging by the prices of other lighters, said seller generally not particularly interested in selling their lot ...)))) So, for example, a lighter, the price of which I do not understand ... http://cgi.ebay.com/ZIPPO-Ligh ..... 45f10ee444

But amid this zazhigalochki, the price for the Kremlin set just seems tempting ...))))))))))))))

to sell, and it can sell, but that's how long it will hang-Lot is another question ... :) I too would not give for those Zippo 6,000 rubles, to be honest http://zippocollector.ru/forum ..... / topic-303

however, our colleague and one lucky he just sold, I do not know, how about the second :)

remember the words of one person, I have something right now rushing to quote:

"Everyone can buy at any price. It is only a matter of time and patience "
