Guys, I know it may sound both off topic and like "who have the best sub", But do you know if any of our Chinese suppliers provides also rep lighters like the ones from Ronson or Cartier or DuPont ... ?

Thanks! Gentle.

Almost none now, there are many made in China but dealers do not want to face the serious charges of sending dangerous goods.

I've got a few very nice ligne 2 ST Dupont's off of ioffer. I believe you'll also find Cartiers on there.

The quality of my lighters is outstanding. The weight, feel, the engravings.. Very gen like.

If you buy one though be sure to use the best butane, not Ronson garbage! I use only Vector butane, it's a little pricey, but it's the best, and can be gotten on amazon.

Yes, mine take the dupont flints, and refill butane. However I use an even better butane with the adapter called Vector.

Have 3 of them. I hate them... They made my sigarette smelling like a truck with wrongly tuned injection ECU.

Not mentioning the pockets...

I want gas based ones ;)

My zippo betrays me :((. The oil seems to evaporate quickly. Cant light it up when i needs it.

What kind of fluids do you use ?? My zippo can run about a month before i refill probaly longer but Always fill up each month

LOL! Exactly the one I ordered from iOffer (97$ shipped) -> https://www.ioffer.com/i/s-t-dupont-highest-quality-lighter-ab097b-528506002

I'm curious to see how it is, considering that the same model on kuvarsit is listed for 118US$ + shipping...

You paid $97?

 

You could of probably gotten it for less either from another seller on there, or.. With i-offer, if you didn't know, you can submit an offer.

 

If the seller doesn't like the offer, they can revise the offer. However I've never paid the asking price for anything on there. Atleast that seller has good feedback.

 

I bought my Dupont's on there for about $60ish shipped, both Ligne 2's.

No, I didn't know about offering. I checked the seller's feedbacks and I've seen he has other 2 similar models for 58$, but I wasn't convinced. And before I was nearly going to spend 118+45$ at kuvarsit for the same piece, so I still consider it good ;)

Yes I was going to mention that kuvarsit sells those lighters at quite a high price, I used to sell them for under $50

 

However as I said before not many dealers will sell them anymore so the high prices may reflect this.

Ordered Sept 8, address confirmed on Sept 10, "I will immediately send , thank you" said from the dealer on 12.

Let's see: it has a huge amount of good feedback (1476 sold item with 99% positive feedback) so I'm not worried for now.

Also the Estimated Shipping is declared 15 - 20 Days
