Week or so back a Zippo thread popped up, my dad has a little Zippo side business and I spoke with him briefly about it yesterday. He left for vacation today, but he was thinking we could do a group buy at 30 lighters with a custom logo. Either printer or etched.
At 30 lighters with a Custom Logo I could do them for about 33.00 shipped he thinks. Prices drop down a little bit if we can get 50 interested people.
Not a money maker, but I think it's a neat idea and something I'd be happy to help.
I am not a graphic designer, but if there's an interest for this and someone wants to put a logo together or use the little 24 Hour Campfire.com graphic above (with Ricks permission) I can see what I can get together and a final figure when my father gets back at the end of next week.
Turn around time would be aprox a month.

I'm not a smoker either, but have a few. Usually have one when I go camping.
Let's keep any interest here, vs PM's at the moment. Have 4 people so far, plus myself. So not a bad start...

I was just thinking that etched would last much longer for those of us that would carry it most every day.
When we getting out to try some of those new toys you haven't shot yet?

Not a smoker, but would use it for starting fires when hunting. Count me in, and let me know how much and where to send $.

I've been so stinking busy with work and the house in SD is officially on the market as of today (been going back and forth), been house hunting over this way as well and stressing over that $$$$$ Did find a place with access to a lot of private land though.

Is it important to declare if you are or aren't a smoker?

I personally don't care if someone smokes a carton a day, just as long as it's not in my house or my car.

Is it important to declare if you are or aren't a smoker? Whether you're a smoker or not They make excellent props, sometimes they can be the focus of starting a good conversation. From time to time if I'm in a group of guys that haven't heard all my BS, I'll pull out my stainless Zippo and hand it to a guy and ask if he's ever seen a $1,300 Zippo. Well he'll take a good look at this Zippo. Usually he'll say, what' makes that a $1300 zippo. I'll then explain that I had a tenant that would steal anything he could. I managed to let him get a month behind on the rent. I filed for eviction. Once I got him out and came in the trailer, he had rolled up the carpet and padding (did me a favor as it was 6 or 7 years old) and took it. Stole the window units and even took the hot water heater. Only thing left of value in the whole damn trailer was this Zippo lighter. I'll then say, wouldn't you say that was a $1300 lighter. LOL Count me in!!! Best, GWB
