I like the way you prove that they are yours with my Post in the background.
Anyway, so are u selling any or are yours all purposeful to you? I'm just wondering because I'm interested in rapidly increasing my collection.
Also, do you have any lighter fuel I could buy, cos the sellers on eBay all ship from America, first off, I don't think that's allowed, and secondly, it is bloomin' expensive!
Anyway, nice collections you've got.

Yeah. I didn't want people thinking I was cheating!

I'll send you a list of what I have to sell when I make it (probably tomorrow). I have a few doubles and triples.

It's illegal to post fuel. It should be about £1.95 at your tobacconist.

I need some as well, don't know the best way to buy it.
The best is Zippo Lighter Fluid, which is a complex mix of Butane and Propane AFAIK.
But there are cheaper lighter fluids available 'over the counter'

Go to a tobacconist/corner shop and ask for "lighter fuel". I recommend genuine Zippo fuel. Newport isn't bad.

I think you're thinking of Zippo gas (for gas lighters).
Zippo liquid fuel is made from naptha (a very refined petroleum) with an aliphatic (organic carbon molecules) added.
Zippos will run on any liquid fuel (meths, parafin, etc.) but it's best to use the proper stuff.

Right well, after starting that irrelevant thread:
Would anyone collect or use this? It's a brand new, unused one's (not even been fired up  ) has just come into my possession and I don't smoke or do cannabis. Sort of a mini hint that it's for sale and I don't need it.

I think you'll find Absinthbri's your man! He's our resident Zippo expert.
If he's not interested, how much would you be looking for? I MIGHT be interested (as I don't seem to be able to give up fags!)

Got me a new zippo today, I guess i'm starting to collect, but don't want to keep them all packaged up, so I just use them! Got me a full size one this time, what you think?
