Hi Guys,

I was wandering if anyone here is collecting, or has some zippos, I've decided to start a collection, or at least a nice selection, I already had a Solid Brass one, and just bought a nice Jack Daniels one of eBay yesterday.

Anyone here into it?

EDIT:

These are my two:





Except my JD one looks much nicer than that for some reason../

I really want to get this one:



It has Austrian Crystals in it, and since I am austrian, (although speak only a bit of German, (brought up in UK)) I think it serves an extra value.

Nice, I'd reccomend having a Zippo for anything really, 'cos they are so useful, a LifeTime Guarantee, and also they're wind proof, which is sooo cool.

I collect Zippos. I have about 90 different ones now. I also have some displays and paraphernalia. I also deal a little.

I have the "Bling" Zippo (the one with the $ sign). I posted pics a few days ago here.

I like the shape of the '41 model. I have a modern '41 is solid Sterling silver and I have an original 1943 Black Crackle. Here's a pic of my Black Crackle:
