I purchased these 14 lighters at an estate sale. It was a 2 day sale. The first day there must have been a couple hundred lighters. I went back on the second day and these 14 were all that were left, so I bought them all.
I have not researched any of them. They were all tagged and had info written on the tags, so it appears that someone from the estate sale company researched them at one time. I am leaving all the tags attached so you can see what info there is.
They also each have a price that was assigned by the estate sale company. The total of those prices comes out to $90. To be honest with you, I bought them on 'discount day" and didn't pay full price, but after fees, I'll make about $8. I'll keep the price low so that who ever buys them from me will still have some profit room.
Of the 14, most will make the clicking noise but won't light, which makes me think they have a flint but are empty of fluid. A couple don't make the clicking noise, so they probably need both a flint and fluid.
The lighters, starting with the top row, moving left to right include:
Top Row:
- eagle on front. clicks but doesn't light.
- old hippie on front. front says 'The Peak of Music', back says Music '94. clicks but doesn't light.
- silver and rust colored. This one works. Unknown amount of fluid.
- silver with red spiral. Clicks but doesn't light.
Middle Row:
- Pipe lighter. Sparks, but doesn't light. From 1947
- Wrench lighter. This one works barely, probably just needs more fluid.
- Silver. Marked 'Bentley'. No clicking noise.
- Black gun with silver handle. Clicks, very small flame appears. Probably needs more fluid.
- Silver gun. Marked 'Victory" on one side, 'Eagle" on the other side. Does not click or light.
Bottom Row:
- Black Panther. Marked 'Masai" on the bottom. Clicks, but doesn't light
- Camel. This one works.
- Playgirl figure on front. This one works.

- Gun. Doesn't work, probably needs a flint. Has chip on handle.

SHIPPING CHARGE INFO:
I do combine shipping on multiple items purchased. However, my web host is not set up to calculate multiple item shipping costs. At checkout, you will be charged full shipping price on each item purchased and I will refund the appropriate amount of overpayment. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can send me an email with your zip code and stating which items you'll be purchasing and I'll calculate the correct combined shipping charges and send you a custom invoice.
Also, every January the postal service increases shipping charges. This year, many price increases were a bit steep with some package categories adding as much as a dollar on to an already high shipping charge. I try to absorb some of the new charges but that's getting harder with each increase.
International shipping charges also took a tremendous leap. International shipping will now depend on the country. Buyer must contact seller for international shipping charges before making a purchase. Seller reserves the right to void any international transactions where contact has not been made prior to purchasing.
All items in my listings come from either estate or garage sales. I do not know if they came from homes where smoking or pets were present. All items are sold in the same condition as when I received them.
