The flint spring (spring that keeps the flint in place) is missing – easily replaceable. Also noticed that the lift arm pin is a replacement. Not sure why the flint tube has a different color (more yellow than silver). Needs the inner flint spring which should be easy to replace. Also needs a new flint and petrol lighter fluid to work. I’d also recommend replacing the wick. These lighters are getting harder and harder to find these days in any condition. Sold as is, as found. What you see is what you get. NO RESERVE SO BID WITH CONFIDENCE !!! Buyer pays S&H. Please check out my other auctions for more vintage lighters and collectibles. International Buyers, Please Note: Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying. I ship to most countries as long Shipsaver Insurance covers it (excluded countries include: Belarus, Burma/Myanmar, Ivory Coast, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russian Federation, Sudan, Syrian Republic, Zimbabwe. This list is subject to change by Shipsaver). Due to a high volume of non payers, I require that payment be made within 3 days, unless other arrangements have been made. Thanks for your interest and good luck!
