    buy as many as you are allowed to buy.....

    and what you do with them is nobodys business but your own.........
    My sister used to work at a nice place called the black kettle... I always felt like a pot when she mentioned it...

    so whats your take on zippo flipping?? is it just illegal as poster flipping? are people gonna freak out when I put my 10 zippos (i have so far) on ebay?

    i wonder how many more i can get in the next 7 shows

    you don't like arc and you also wanna flip zippo's to help finance your tour

    i'm not sure if you are a fan or just a disturbance of the peace

    state your real purpose for seeing so many ev shows OR move along

    Dude... ESPECIALLY if it is a one per customer rule at the show...and you are buying a bunch to flip...


    yes, its exactly one per customer. so if i go buy one, then complete that transaction, then i go back and buy another and another and another, I am 1 customer each time i do that. same holds true for going to BK and getting a whopper on sale or anything else.

    ya know, i probably wont sell any of the zippos after all, ill just buy as many as i can and store them away. btw, i lied before, i dont have 10, i have 20. I promise to everyone here i wont flip them, im just going to store them in a box in my basement.

    they do look good, though, u gotta admit

    That would be applicable if he condemned the guy for flipping......

    my real purpose to see so many EV shows is I love EV and the music he makes. that doesnt mean that I love every song without question, i do have a mind of my own and am allowed to make up my own opinion. Im not sheep like most of the people here and just love everything unconditionally. and as far as the zippos, i can buy as many as they will let me, im just operating within the rules. im not stealing them, or aquiring them in an illegal way, im purchasing them just like everyone else.

    If you get at least 5 zippos per show, you can probably pay for quite a bit of your tour costs...
    and get your picture taken at a show while buying all those zippos, then have your picture posted on the message pit, then get shit from now on...
    like that tall flipper guy, pjkev2003 or whatever, security watches that dude like a hawk...
    although it could be because of the way he flaunts his man boobs, who knows!

    and dont think im heartless, im hooking up 4 of my freinds back home that couldnt make the trip, but u gotta understand, it costs alot of money to go on the road, and i think thats how the whole flipping thing started for me. I paid alot of money to get out here and get tix to the show, so if i can get an extra zippo and poster and sell them i can offset the cost of my trip. im not looking to make a living out of flipping, im just looking to offset the cost of doing all this. is that really such a bad thing?

    So let me get this straight- You feel like you are entitled to compensation to offset the expense of your choice of recreation? It sounds like thinking error to me.

    exactly.

    it's a free market, people. who cares what everyone on here gets riled up about? so long as you're not flipping items that the 10c explicitly says are not for resale, who gives a shit?

    you should go buy all the whoppers before we all get to LA, then sell them to us for 2x what you paid...
    Quick, what are you doing on here posting?

    I would just like one for myself that's all I'm saying. Like many of us just want one. So maybe only go for a couple at the next shows? Your pretty well set already. But do what you like that is your right.

    Suffering from multiple personality disorder are you?

    One per customer.

    Are you one customer or more?

    Ahhh...Bet you're cool. Whatever.

    Why did you come on here asking????

    PS--Didn't bother to look at your photo.

    "Ohhh...Cool dude ...oh I mean greedy fuck...has a lot of lighters" is what I suppose the caption should read though...


    Let me switch computers...

    hahahahahahahahahaha. :D




    ummmm.....'illegal'..........? selling posters isn't 'illegal'.......even if you bought em thru the 10c with the 'not for resale' blurb, it still wouldn't be illegal. posters have ALWAYS been up for sale aftermarket. basically, if it's for sale at a show...it's your right to do with it what you wish after purchase, including selling it.
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    exactly.

    it's a free market, people. who cares what everyone on here gets riled up about? so long as you're not flipping items that the 10c explicitly says are not for resale, who gives a shit?

    He came on here and asked what we...the PJ community... think.

    Many of us are going to the shows (and traveling across the country) and he's inconsiderate if he buys 28 lighters at a given show keeping 27 of us from scoring the ones we want.

    Only a given number are slated for a given show.

    He can do what he wants.

    Obviously he came on here to fight.

    He's cool......

    He can buy lighters.
