So far not happy with xikar new rma process

[CentralTimeSmoke]

In terms of MSRP, it looks like the ELX is the same price as what the Axia was--about $60. If the Axia is indeed discontinued, I don't think you can expect much more. Shame they weren't more communicative. Seems like an Ellipse is more similar stylistically to the Axia than the ELX.

This is why I stick to cheapie vortex lighters. If they break (which actually has never happened to me--I usually lose them before they have the chance to break) I can buy another three pack for like $20, which includes a can of fluid.

Axia was $70 I know because there are a few places that have them for sale for that. There is one place that is cheaper and I may replace my axia with a new one. I have also thought I may see if local B&m will do a trade. But will see what xikar does first
