If you will go on Ebay and do a search for Ronson Lighters you can score a bunch for the price of one Colibri or other name brand. You can go in with a couple of buddies and share the total cost as well.
If this is the same vendor, they also have a Best Offer option. I picked up 12 a couple weeks ago for $40 with free shipping.

Might have been the same guy,,,,this was a Buy It Now price w/free shipping. The same as buying it at Walmart for around $3 a lighter.

I got two of these so I wouldn't lose my nice lotus lighter. They're great.

My Walmart doesn't have 'em, but i did pick some up at Rite Aid for my wedding for $4.95 a piece. Great lighters for the price. Too bad I can't find them at Walmart for $3.

They are also available at most of the military exchanges if you have one near you and have access to it.

Perhaps TMC has an unlimited supply of cash, but EVERY, and I do mean EVERY lighter I have ever paid any kind of cash for has broken in no time flat. They tell you they can fix it, just send 19.95 plus your lighter plus 20 dollars shipping and handling, blablabla. I don't care how free the service is, the lighter shouldn't BREAK in the first place. And if it does, why on earth would I ever want to have some crap lighter with a golden price tag for anyway. OK, venting over. Ronson Jetlites provide all of the flame of the competitors costing 10 to 30 times as much, plus they work and work and work. And if one should break, you are not overly upset, because you did NOT pay big cash for it. They can be bought 5-10 at a time if you hit it on the right day, and you come out about the same as Colibri in price. You think that Lambourghini lighter won't break just cause it's costly? Haha, I don't think so anymore. I have seen em all break, or heard about it.
Good old Ronson. If only they were not also made in China. Great lighters if you can find em.

I wonder if they have their own forum?
OH, and be careful, some butane cans will pull the refill nibs right out of the lighter.

I was in the Wal-Mart by my office yesterday to get some other stuff, and figured while I was there I'd grab a few Jet Lites to throw in bombs or PIF's. The peg on the shelf was empty! You guys quit buying my Jet Lites, you hear?

Finally found a local CVS that had a few on the shelf. Every other CVS & Walgreens & WalMart didn't even have a spot for them.
Needless to say I picked up a couple for $4.50 ea.

I'm on my second Ronson now. Not because it stopped working or anything, But because my friend and I were at a bar and he saw it and wanted one so I gave it to him.
Best lighter ever!
