About us

Sell My Lighters

We are collectible lighter buyers. We buy everything from Zippo, Ronson, Dunhill, S.T. Dupont, Thorens, and hundreds of other lighter makers. We specialize in large collections, but we will buy anywhere from 1 lighter to thousands of lighters at a time.

A lot of our customers are seasoned collectors who take pride in their knowledge and the value of their collection. They find it comforting to know they are dealing with a buyer who respects and understands that their collection was a serious investment.

For large collections, we travel to you and pay cash. Smaller collections can be sold by mail. We send prepayment and pay for shipping.

A Word From Stacey

“I understand that many lighter collections hold great sentimental value for the owner. I want them to feel at ease and know that my job is to get these prized possessions into the hands of collectors that will love and appreciate them the way they did or the loved one that they are selling them for. We greatly appreciate the time and effort that people have spent collecting and caring for those treasures.”
