Why use a fancy ashtray when a cut PBR can or Quahog shell does the same thing? The ashtray inhances the whole exprierence, just like the lighter.

It's not about what is the most value for your money. Sure $800 buys a lot of cigars, but you have cigars, who cares? Buy those too. It's not "buy this or that". Maybe for him he can buy both? That being said, even very wealthy people do not want to spend more than they have to whether it's a gallon milk or an ST Dupont.

ST Dupont is one of the most highest luxury brands there is. True class that needs no introduction and just holding and using the lighter it is immediate that this is something special. Even if you hate cigars and never heard of ST Dupont, you will be impressed.
Think rolex on this one..sure they're are millions of other watches out there, but theres only one Rolex

There are only few brands of lighters like this; Dunhill, Davidoff, & Caran D'Ache. ST Duponts makes the Davidoff's. All are equal in luxury & quality, but whether you like British, French or Swiss nameplates.

My favorite cigar lighter is the Dunhill trench torch lighter; oh my is that lighter something else! So is the price tag!
