Could happen to any of the $2, $3, $4 lighters.
At $2 /ea from DX, it's hardly worth worrying about.
What I never liked about the Ronsons is their miniscule fuel capacity, the lack of any way to visually tell how full the dinky tank is, the metal triggers that might look cool, but heat up pretty quickly, so if you're lighting a few cigars in a row, by about the 3rd one, you're burning your finger, and, worst of all, the nonsense searching and chasing around needed to acquire one. I mean seriously, I think I can get the newest LE from Tatuaje with less effort than it takes to shop around to find a Ronson.
The DX lighters, I go to the website, click a few buttons and however many of them I want magically show up on my doorstep 2-3 weeks later.
