When I first started selling Zippo Lighters on eBay


When I first started selling on eBay I couldn’t find anything to sell that I really was interested in. It turns out that no one cares what I’m interested in. People want what is useful to them. I never expected one of my biggest sellers to be a lighter. Wait, I should say a Zippo Lighter. I have sold them to family, friends, flee markets and now on eBay. I have some in my eBay Store now. You should check them out. I have one that looks like a devil and I will be putting on eBay in a few days. I should have started selling them on eBay as soon as I opened my eBay Store. During the Christmas Holidays I had so many e-mails from people asking if I had a certain type of Zippo Lighter. I didn’t have the lighters that they wanted, but I could have got them from a wholesale company. Why didn’t I? I didn’t have time to buy them and have them shipped to me. Christmas came and went faster than I could remember. I’m not trying to get rich with this eBay thing anyway, I’m just testing it out for now. I got a copy of the Zippo Lighter guarantee from one of their web sites. Here it is. It’s hard to find a company that gives this kind of guarantee.
GUARANTEE FOR ZIPPO LIGHTERS
Zippo Windproof Pocket Lighter. Any Zippo lighter, when returned to our factory, will be put in first-class mechanical condition free of charge, for we have yet to charge a cent for the repair of a Zippo lighter, regardless of age or condition. The finish, however, is not guaranteed. This guarantee gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary state to state. Other Zippo products carry their own specific warranties.
Zippo Multi-Purpose Lighter. Any Zippo Multi-Purpose Lighter returned to our factory for warranty repair will be repaired free of charge or replaced, at our discretion. There is a $5.00 shipping and handling Fee. Damage to the Multi-Purpose Lighter resulting from abuse or misuse is not covered by our warranty. The finish is also not warranted. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary state to state. Other Zippo products carry their own specific warranties.

I have decided to really go all out and design a Web-Site to sell more products. I know, it sounds like I know what I’m doing. Hell no! but I’m learning. There are a million companies out there that are willing to take your money and build you a Web-Site. When I get up and running you will be the first to know. I’ll give you the Link to my Web-Site and I’ll even give you the monthly cost. Well gotta go. Hope to hear some suggestions or thoughts.
