Even more important, are they better enough to justify a 20 euro price increase? (compared to generic-brand refillable gas & gasoline lighters)

yeah, but i don't really like the cheesy designs on them. if i were you, i'd just get a cheap, plain one for like 20 bucks or whatever euro conversion they are over there.

they have a larger flame, they start almost every time, and for the most part, they're windproof. the only thing that sucks about them is that if you trying to smoke a bowl, it tastes like lighter fluid

and they're nothing like those cheap butane refillable lighters at gas stations.. those suck. and i think american soldiers would burn down vietnamese villages with zippos.. they called them "zippo raids" or something- so if it's good enough to burn a house down, it's good enough for you.

Yeah, I know those cheap butane lighters suck. I was thinking more of those Zippo copies that look exactly the same but are lots cheaper.

EDIT: And the gas-based torchlighters.

Nooooooo!! don't get the cheap copies. they don't work half the time. just fork out the extra 10 euro and get the real thing. real zippos will last a lifetime, or a long time at least.

zippos are cool, but i dont really like them. if i was to use something other than a regular lighter, it'd be one of those torch lighters. those are cool and they're near impossible to blow out in the wind.

Yeah, that's the main difference I was thinking of. Besides a torch-flame is cooler.

Plus you could smoke salvia with them if you use drugs anyway.

yeah, forgot about salvia.. i still stand by the zippo though

There are some SICK designs on zippo.com i wanna order one, i got one for my birthday about 2/3 years ago and i love it more than any other lighter i ever had.

either camel or marlboro, has been giving out free zippo's in bars and clubs around milwaukee and chicago. I think I got 3 right now. they give out free cigarettes too. I guess they are trying to keep us american's smoking strong. From what I remember, in Europe, people aren't quiting smoking as much as they are here.
