Anyone know where i can pick up a nice torch ligther in toronto for under 50?

There are some good deals at www.bugstores.com, free shipping for $25 order, and very decent prices...almost seems too good to be true.. anyone ever order from them? seems fishy since they are US based and they tell me there are no custom fees...and free shipping to canada....hmmmmm

anyone have info on this online store or these lighters in general let me know, thanks

hmm.. i've always been happy with zippos. windproof, waterproof, durable, reliable. Never go anywhere without a zippo in my pocket.

B) the torch ligthers are awesome

sure the zippos are classy, but the torch ones are better imo

burn hotter and easier to refill...and they look cool

when I went on vacation in Hong Kong.. they were selling these things for $5 canadian. I smuggled one back to Canada... they're so much fun!!!

anyway, I wouldn't be TOO suspicious of bugstores.com. These things can be made very cheaply and they probably only cost $3-5 wholesale. There's no duties/taxes if the value of the item is under $20 canadian. I suppose free shipping is a little suspicious though. It's a risk, but you're not risking much if you're buying a $10 item.

My name is Jason Virga from bugstores.com. We do ship to Canada, but we do not offer free shipping! I don't know where you heard that from, but it was obsolete information.

Default Oops..
I just realized how old of a post that was! Sorry for replying so late! But anyway, since this is a deal website, I'd like to extend our Christmas sale that was for our customers to the community here at redflagdeals:

Wow talk about a dead post bump

Edit: Damn now I want a lighter again. My nice Zippo one got stolen and I never got a new one. Too bad there is no free ship to Canada otherwise I'd probably pick up two lighters.

I bought one at Princess Auto for $3 or $4 - can't remember if that was reg price or on sale though. I use it for birthday's to light candles, camping fires, etc....It takes butane and you can find it in the soldering section....similar to this one from Cdn Tire.

Micro Jet Torch

Product# 58-7500-2
View larger image

Hand-held jet torch reaches flame temperatures of up to 1,300°C
Powered by a butane fuel cell that can be refilled with any universal butane injector
Windproof flame and waterproof ignition makes it ideal for any toolbox, first aid kit, camping and survival kit etc

mlc2000, this was -not- an advertisement. Our website was noticed and published in PLAYBOY's kind of "what's hot" section (called Potpourri).
