Supra Zippos

[xarewhyayen]

As i said, the person i spoke with is going to be speaking with his artists then giving me more details, im going to be pushing for etched style. Nothing is positive yet, but as soon as it is, ill be sure to lay it out in an official group buy thread after confirming with the mods

Like 3 options to purchase from would rock.

Too much trouble.. plus theres a 50 unit minimum order

didnt get to read all posts in this thread, but would you be able to select colors or would it have to be a run of 50 in each color?

if you can do individuals, candy apple red would be badass.

I like the design a lot. However you should move the car up slightly to the seam of the lighter so that when open, it looks like the targa is out lol....

The lighter will come in brushed silver with the black picture.
There won't be any color/logo options.
It would cost too much for them to offer options, considering they need at least 50 people just for one kind of lighter.

No news yet, I emailed the guy and told him that if he doesnt get back to me today im going to assume he's bailing on me. i'm going to start looking for another vender tonight that can get me a good price.

 

[suprajjang]

any word from the guy or are you going to start looking elsewhere?

Didn't read all the posts....but I like the design, front and back thing is a cool idea.

If it's etched I'd pay up to $30 probably, less than that I would take 1 or 2 for sure!

I'm actually emailing someone right now to get pricing.. that prick never got back to me, i'll update as often as i get news... thanks for the continuing interest

 

[Suprastic]

i'll buy one for sure. I love these kinda group buys

 

[suprajjang]

any luck now? as you can see i really want one:icon_bigg

 

[SkyHawk Ecks]

Now are these Zippos being bought with just the silver finish and then having a separate artist etch the picture onto them?

I was sorta wondering "WTF, Zippo does this kind of thing?"

Man, you could buy some nice parts for what these things go for:

Here's another thread about Zippos on SF:

Rajunz - Nice find! I saw those years ago and could never remembered where.

I don't smoke anymore but I'd be in for one if etched.

 

[suprastanger507mgte]

kinda like that.

Im getting more ideas now this is kinda neat.

Why Supramania.com com on it?

It should only be Supra on it.

 

[bigunitpitcher22]

i agree with suprastanger507mgte, but supra should be in the MKIII font

[bigunitpitcher22]

It is always good to have a lighter (even if you don't smoke) - you never know when it will come in handy. I had a friend that met a lot of women just by having a lighter handy and being in the right place at the right time when they were looking for a light - of course he had a Zippo and not just some cheapo lighter.
