Just started smoking again and feel the need for one of those early 90's 'slow, hot, death, metal' SOM lighters.

Anyone got a spare they'd flog me?

Well that's a shame -- I can't even summon a pic of one up from the googles -- have to just go and sob over a pic of one in UTG.

I have a mate who bought one back in the day. I quit smoking years ago, but still wish I'd bought one!
Is this the place I used to know as Fatherland?

Nay way am I spending than on a regular zippo.

They did a silver version if I remember rightly, which cost about that much back then!

The Zippo was it only the beginning of the 90 Sisters Fanclub The Reptilehouse / GB and my knowledge was limited. Incl. Box.

In advance or cash on pickup. Buyer pays shipping fee i.H.v. 6, - €.



The article is "as is" for private sale, this means that with a bid, you expressly agree to waive the law you are entitled to hand completely. Do not bid if you do not agree these rules!
