Folks, just a suggestion, but how about we all chip in at least $5 per lighter just to help cover incidentals or units for designers ( ) or whatever. I'll be sending another 10 bucks for my two anyway. FWIW

++++UPDATE++++
Got the image & waiver from Rick
I need to provide Rick a final count, if it's OK with everyone I am leaving town tomorrow afternoon for the North Shore (MN).
Will be back on Monday and see how many proverbial checks show up in the mail as I'm waiting on the payment of about 20 lighters as of yet.
If I have not received payment in the mail or paypal +3% by Monday you're out. I will not be able to order any extra, so I have to be accurate in my count and I'm not making enough on this to eat the price of a dozen or so lighters.
I know a few people personally/locally, so don't worry about this if you're one of those (that accounts for five lighters).
I will (Zippo) be providing Rick with a sample for his approval, aprox (1-3 weeks) and upon that approval the order will ship and I'll be doing batches each day until all have been shipped.
Thanks everyone, been a bit frustrating trying to sort 90+ peoples names/user names out but enjoyable as well in a way.

Have a great time on the North Shore. The weather should be perfect. Split Rock and Temperence River are some of my favorite places on earth.

Thanks guys, I grew up near Duluth and spent many weekends as a child up near Lutsen at a family shack and other friends cabins.
Haven't been up past Two Harbors in 22 years, so looking forward to going. Tomorrow night in Duluth, than a couple days at Lutsen.
Hope to find the old place, explore a few rivers and relive some fond memories. Sunday back to Duluth, hoping to meet up with my uncle for a drink and continue to try and talk him out of a 1892 25-20 that's been in my family for over a 100 years and is in excellent condition.
I've been working on him for that for YEARS now, he's promised it to me but I'm hoping to get it sooner rather than later.

+++++Another Updated+++++
Back from vacation a day early, got to spend a couple nice days away before the weather turned to crap and the girlfriend tried to cripple me.
She place a rocking chair in the wrong spot in our cabin and I ran my foot into it. Hurt like heck, but didn't think much of it until I woke up to a foot that was 2x it's normal size. Still have a huge knot, but at least able to get my shoe on today.
Anyways....
Image was sent to Zippo last week, so the ball is rolling on that end.
Few more payments in and if I haven't received payment by tomorrow end of day or heard anything from the last few remaining you're out.
Hope everyones weekend was good,
Cal

Alright, how much are they and what do they look like? I know I'm a little late to the party. Just looking for information. Thanks for your time.
