    lighter repair

    Hey guys, do any of you happen to do, or know who would be able to do, repair on a corona old boy style lighter? I recently bought one made by Vertigo from my local B&M and it's never worked right. I have to repeatedly strike it before I get any kind of flame and when I finally do get one, it's...

    Thinking of starting up an online store

    I'm surprised that this thread is still getting posts, but I'm not complaining lol. I think the whole business venture is going to be put on hold indefinitely. It's a fun concept to play around with in my head, but for the time being, I just don't think it would be feasible. I did take the...

Anyway, just wanted to jump on here and tell you guys that I just pulled the trigger on my first large (at least to...

    Thinking of starting up an online store

    The way I understand it, business owners in the Gulfport city limits have the freedom to allow patrons the option of smoking. If I were to go an hour north to, say, Hattiesburg (the next decent sized town/small city going north), the combined coffee/B&M wouldn't be an option because all smoking...

    Thinking of starting up an online store

    Woodsroad, pretty much my whole adult working life has been in retail of one form or another. I haven't had that many jobs but I guess that attests to my ability to hold a job for long periods of time. I have never experienced the stresses and ins and outs of running a business...I've always...

    Thinking of starting up an online store

    Good advice guys! I love hearing all these different opinions and ideas, so keep 'em coming. What about doing something on ebay? Is there still a profit to be made by selling through them? I know I get on there, and so do most of you probably, to check out what's available. Maybe I'm wrong but...

    Thinking of starting up an online store

    Wow, you guys are quick on the replies lol! Onepyrotech, I was thinking that, if I did move forward with this, it would only be a part time gig. I have a part time job right now that pays decent for what it is, but I need a supplemental source of income. My best friend is a graphic designer who...

    Thinking of starting up an online store

    Hello all, Cristos here. I've been lurking around the forums here and at various other places for a while now, but this is my first official post on the pipes magazine forums. I'm posting here to ask for advice. I don't know if this line of questioning is welcome in the forums, so if it's not...
