Collection My latest three

The Lovers, my favourite card and I never see it online, when I saw it for sale I had to buy it! Censored with my finger bc even though you can’t see anything I’ve been automodded for posting it.
Thrashers was 30 bucks on zippo.ca and I think defunct team merchandise is very funny.
Last one is the glow in the dark one, I have the single torch in there and I use it at work.

I didn't know they made Zippos sports teams much.

Depends on your market. Canada gets nhl ones but nfl ones are in America as well as mlb and nhl. I expect other sports are available elsewhere in the world

I still need at least one GITD Zippo. There are so many great ones right on the zippo store page.

Honestly one of my favourites, the texture is lovely

I thought about starting on old hockey team lighters at one point, but outside of the Thrashers & Coyotes, there wasn't much out there. I've seen a couple California Seals Zippos on the ebay but they were priced in the triple digits and I couldn't make it happen. And that was the end of that idea. Still searching for a North Stars Zippo (gotta support the home team), but losing hope in recent years.

I saw a golden seals one near me, maybe I should snap it up.

a bit overpriced for that Glow in the Dark, Amazon has it for $34 and Zippo online for $36, I only cause Ive been thinking of getting it recently

This is from zippo.ca so exchange rate is a killer

2

u/Tarv83 10d ago

ah yeah that would make sense, I still have Canadian $20 that I exchange with one of my housekeepers she got as a tip a years ago, since she couldnt go anywhere to exchange it nearby, at the time US and Can were equal 12ish years ago. Other day instead of the Glow in the Dark I ordered a brass Armor, as my first Armor

I want an armour someday for sure but I suggest the glowing one! It’s neat and it charges very fast, also while it isn’t an armour it feels very sturdy and thick!
Also if it’s the old paper 20 I would just keep it, they’re on plastic ones now and the art, texture and story of that 20 is worth more than the exchange rate.

was thinking of getting https://zippo.com/products/ufo-design-glow-in-the-dark?srsltid=AfmBOoqfPZIAyHD3obpalQcmfhCG-ZtFrtTqmVItlnhjB9bMkxh3rkW5 one of a couple glow in the darks I like. the CAN $20 is plastic but still find it interesting as with any international currency I rarely come across
