Where can you buy a Zippo lighter in Bangkok ?

 

Hi I am not a smoker so no idea where to go to buy one for a friend arriving soon

Can you get them at 711 or are they a specialist store.  I can think maybe Emporium or MBK   but somebody said to buy a legitimate lighter not a fake

So no idea  any idea on price

 

Thanks in advance 🙏

Genuine I would only know about Hard Rock Cafe. Which w/could be a pretty nice one, HRC and BKK on it.

But MBK seems to be a good place, too.

Lazada will deliver to Bangkok, they have purportedly genuine Zippo lighters for around 600-1000 baht. 

And remember if Lazada doesn't sell an item, it has yet to be invented.

Lazada is a division of Alibaba, a haven of fake goods. I bought “Genuine” Toyota radiator coolant from that site. Packaging looked 99% correct but it was just colored water. 

If you cannot find originals in BKK consider buying direct.

What I have found with Lazada that if you go where it mentions the 'brand' and it states it is, in this case a Zippo it will be a Zippo. But there are many products that will have a blank next to the 'brand' and these products will be a fraction of the price, and will be fake. Buyer beware, some buyers think that they can buy something at a give-away price and it will be genuine, but as we all know, life is not like that, you get what you pay for, and Lazada does have a returns policy should goods be fake, I have bought 100s of items and never been disappointed yet and just because my Uncle Ning is the majority share holder that has nothing to do with it.

There's a Zippo store in Siam Discovery (I believe it's that one) and it's large enough and prominent enough that I'm convinced it's genuine - also they're pretty expensive. Their range is excellent, that's where I'd go. (Zipadeedoo - Siam Discovery Center 4th Floor)

Other than that there used to be a large store at Rot Fai night market (not a stall, an actual shop) but I couldn't tell you whether that's moved with the market. 

Unlike Marble-eye personally I've been ripped off on Lazada by products claimed genuine, though most were pretty clear about what they were or were not. There's a certain degree of caveat emptor, but it's up to you if you want the risk.

Yes MBK is the best... cheap cheap too. They even sell jumbo sized Zippo lighter as big as my palm.
