    the funny thing is, i was on ebay about to spend 84.44 plus 8.88 for shipping cause it was the lowest price i had seen and thought it was reasonable. i really wanted one of these, but just before hitting buy it now, i jumped over to tenclub; low and behold, i got mine for $50 bucks, which is totally worth it

    i don't see why people are bitching about $50 for a limited edition zippo lighter?? these things always retail in that range, and considering the other big bucks that get spent on pearl jam memorabilia, the price is not avaricious by any means

    i'm just considering myself fortunate that many passed up on these, and they were still available at midnight when i made my purchase - thank you tenclub for making these available, i now have an awesome tangible collectible from my incredible trip to la, which by the way, i stood no chance of getting one of these at either wiltern show, and it's totally worth the extra $20 bucks not to have sat in line for 3+ hours to maybe get one

    40 bucks is way to steep for a lighter. I don't even smoke! It would just sit in a box with all my other PJ collectibles. I would pay maybe 25 but thats it.

    Mystery to me too...was at 3 West Coast shows...buzz on the lighters was retarded...I was fortunate enough to get one (have to thank my wife for snagging it actually) and I could have probably sold it for $200 at the merch stand...now they are sitting? Please sell out! I am resisting the urge to buy another....

    It is funny that people will cry about $40 for a lighter that you can use for a long time but not $30 or more for a piece of paper that is roughly 18x24 with ink on it.

    The bitching is because they are more than they were at shows, and because the 10C appears to have added profit to the shipping charge. Also, there arent too many zippos that sell for this price.

    I am happy. We wanted them, and we got em. No server or supply issues this time. Everyone who wanted one should have been able to get one. Cant ask for much more.

    I think many people are buying them. There are probably quite a few thousand of them, though.

    Amen - Santos did however insinuate there may not be enough for everyone which causes me to believe they are somewhat limited.

    I really don't see the appeal in a $40 lighter. And I've spent some serious cash on Pearl Jam stuff.

    30 bucks was enough at the shows especially since it's just gonna be a souvenir that sits around.

    Twice, I had the opportunity to buy one at a show for $30, and twice I said "Na." So I'm certainly not going to buy one now.

    If you want one buy one.
    If you don't, don't.

    It is interesting to see what new merch is for sale. It is also fun to imagine new PJ products. "Long Road" condoms?
