BTW.. if you look at these lighters with ping, you would find a phillips screw head and a piece of metal, some experimentation, clipping, tightening or bending may have a positive outcome.

Looks like you looked in the right spot. However, with the construction process, it may be assembled (cap assembly) first, then attached to the sleeve body, so it might be more of a pain to tweak. The phillips is on the hinge side, and access is occluded by the lighter body when assembled.

There is the small handle that you lift with your fingernail to unscrew the filler head like the ST Dupont and you recharge it very easily...screw the filler back in and wait for a couple of minutes and it lights first time. The handle is used to adjust the flame so as far as clipping, tightening or bending of anything on this item I don't see anything that is going to bind unless someone cross threads the filler back into the lighter.
Anytime I ever disputed a CC charge it was for good reasons and it was never contested.

er... One mans "good reason" is anothers "you did what for a 24 dollar lighter?"

Looks like you would either recommend a CC dispute to someone else or do it yourself for a "ping issue" to me.
