Amazing, I see it going up at least $130++

Just guessing though.

The cost for this baby is well more than $130, so I surely hope that it gets above that price! If it doesn't then I'll probably buy it off my friend at cost!!! Muhahahah~

+$130 for a lighter? It's nifty and all that, but come on. That's almost enough for a WB sensor.

No need to smoke, just use it to "testing" around the car! (looking for gas leaks?)

$255??? For less cash and more effort you could just have it shipped from Japan.

Exactly, 255 is way too much for that even if it is a rx7 zippo
