$4-5 isn't bad, when I looked on eBay a minute ago, all I saw was some sellers trying to get $14.95 (but it comes with FREE shipping!) for one. But I'll also admit, I didn't look too hard.
Yeah, DX packages do take time.

Yeah, and sometimes a few of them even work on arrival.

A friend here has a "smart stand" for the iphone, it was a kickstarter project, mass produced in China, they have the exact same stand on that site, minus the name printed on it, for about 1/10th the kickstarter price, looks like they are pretty fast on the ripoffs.

If anyone is interested, just saw the Power jet torch from a US seller on eBay for $5 shipped.
Search "compact 1300 c jet lighter"
If time is not an issue, DX will have the best prices.

There is a
local artist that had some "art" on ebay, I believe the bidding started at $1, the shipping and handling was $800, it takes all kinds.

I think "No."
I have so many lighters that don't work, I don't think I have room for another one.
I still can't find better than a Ronson Jetlite, and they're easy to throw away.
The xikars and blazers and other more expensive ones, I insist I have to keep using them and struggling with them because I paid money for them.
