Does anyone have any original pictures of this lighter? The one here seems to be a solid pink, with no Zippo logo

Hello, I believe this is an "original" picture of lighter #238 Pink matte lighter. Zippo makes this lighter also with the Zippo logo but the item number for the logo lighter is 238ZL. I hope this answers your question. Thank you for your inquiry. BouLightersNow

The picture we have listed is an original picture. It is an all pink lighter and does not have the Zippo Logo

I believe we have consensus here: brass is better. This lighter is a beauty -- not only is this a high polish armor case, the interior lighter is also brass finish, unlike virtually all other Zipppos, which (I assume) are stainless steel (not meant at all as a criticism of either stainless steel or all other Zippos). I admire and love Zippos because of their "perfection" as an American icon of manufacturing and history (including military history). Hold this puppy in your own hand and you will NEVER regret buying the high-polish Armor brass Zippo.

It's both, more of a gunmetal dark chrome. Also the design isn't as pronounced as the pic would have you believe, but still a great Zippo (armor line so heavier construction than the regular line)

Zippo does guarantee to repair their lighters but it says they rarely need repairs. You can view their website, not sure if it's life time guarantee.

The flames on lighters will point vertically regardless of the exit hole (unless it's a torch-style lighter, of course) so I don't see the advantage of a side hole to be that much better than this one. I'll agree with you on the look - it does maintain the "stock" look of the Zippo. I've had no issues of lighting like the other people, fortunately. I've had the flame up for up to a minute with no loss in intensity while firing up my cigars or lighting 30+ birthday candles (like I did last weekend)... using the butane that was packed in it. I can't say what'll happen when I refill it with my own butane (I've had it for a couple of weeks now) but I hope the flame quality doesn't change.

I have the same issue with this lighter. I usually have to use both hands to light the lighter, flicking it several times before it ignites, sometimes and you have to squeeze the safety REAL hard. It sucks because I am used to one hand lighters.

Oh wow! Well, they are all shipped without fuel to avoid hazard. I ordered Zippo fuel which works great. You need to hold the fuel canister upside-down to allow the fluid to drip into the lighter. Maybe there was a flaw in the lighter fluid can?

I ordered that lighter for christmas. That picture and description are accurate.

It's a real shame, but JON-E went out of business some time ago. Given the fact that Zippo Handwarmers are complete junk, and turned me off to the Zippo name, I have to say Their lighter fluid is the best alternative. I don't believe Jon-E fluid can be purchased anymore.

The main picture is wrong also the actual picture isn't the best representation of this lighter it's really way more beautiful, check it out in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEOcL6535ZQ

Yes, it comes in the official Zippo cardboard box. I just was dissatisfied that the lighter look slightly scraped in the finish.

It is empty and it runs off of lighter fluid, not gas. Zippo sells its own lighter fluid just for Zippos.

You would have to order through Zippo directly if you saw it on their site. We do not offer engraving.

Definitely buy this! The lighter itself does not come with any fluid and this should last you a while. I bought the lighter in June, filled it up to 3/4 and haven't needed to refill it yet.

I belive its factory 1 year. But I have one that I owned for four years and is still working great to this day. I just bought another one yesterday, for a total of three, because they work so well. I have a small collection of zippos and each one has a torch insert to go with it.
