Picked up a lot of 5 pipe lighters off of flea bay, 3 of them worked right out of the gate with bleeding and fuel, two I’ll have to look at, but for the price of one used IM Corona I’m happy.

Yes I’m happy, seller didn’t have fuel to try them but said they made sparks
. I’ll look at the two that dint work after i move in a couple weeks as there is no rush.
Nice job!
I never have good luck buying used lighters but I’m going to have to start looking again. I lost my Faux Pont and I’m putting a lot of wear on my Ligne 1 using it every day.

It’s a risk for sure but for an offer of 135 he accepted i figure if one of the IMs worked I’m, doing ok, the fact that 3 worked give me a lifetime of lighters. Well as long as they hold fuel which is the current test.
Got the next Corona working l, i like it a nice St DuPont rip off.
Well one is fine the others need seals replaced it seems, won't bother with the two knockoffs, i'll be sending them in after i move.
Oddly enough the one i like the most the St. Dupont looking thing, I can't find anything about it online, def stamped IM Corona and i saw one picture of one someone was trading but nothing on their website about it or anywhere else i can find. I'm assuming its an old model but considering how popular the St D lines are you'd think they still made them, unless they got sued by St D and stopped production.
Anyone have any info on those?

Nice haul!
I like repairing lighters myself. Gives one a great sense of satisfaction.
Been repairing a few old Dunhill Rollagas models.

I find great satisfaction into sending them in and paying $30 and getting a warranty with the work
. Just no patience fidgeting with tiny seals and springs.
Just sent the lighters into ARS for refurbing. Paid i think 20 for each in the lot and ARS wants 45 each to refurbish, great deals and I’ll have a lifetime of IM lighters. They say 2-3 weeks turnaround, we shall see.
