Yeah, this for sure. I had my shipping and billing addresses filled in, payment filled in, so all I had to do was add it to my cart, use the pre-populated fields for my shipping, billing, and CC info, and then ordered. The whole process took me about ~20 seconds.

Do this and then give it another go Saturday :tu

IMO, the wolfman lighter is fugly (that's just my opinion though) and so was the face lighter set from last year. At least last year's set you got a lighter AND a cutter. This year's looks like some tribal mess and has nothing to do with wolfman.

Forcing you to buy a $350 lighter to buy a box was robbery and people will remember these things when shopping around in the future. Used car salesmen tactics would easily make me walk out the door. Next thing you know they'll be selling you extended warranties and satisfaction guarantees on any unsmoked, unopened product (LOL).

Sidenote, why did this year's release get called Wolfman instead of just 'Wolf' like all the other abbreviated names from previous years?

neoflex 10-13-2011 01:10 PM

Re: The Wolfman
 
To be honest I think in another week or two guys will have no problems tracking these down once the non-dress boxes land at all the other retailers. Keep in mind it's just the mostly just unlucky 13 who have received their allotments so far. My local only got theirs on Tuesday. I think NHC may have just gotten theirs early my guess is due to the volume he does for Pete. Just a guess on the last part. I think with a little patience they will start to surface a little more often and easier to grasp.

I have the Face set and the cutter is useless to the point where it lives in the box they came in. Dupont makes really nice lighters, but they can't make a cutter to save their lives.

Re: The Wolfman
 
The Wolfman set comes with an embossed leather lighter case in place of the cutter.

I prefer punches myself. I'm looking for a nice one right now in fact.

A money back guarantee, sign me up! My budget would get cut in half.:r
They probably didn't abbreviate because when guys say wolf I know myself and others would probably think of things like this epic t-shirt.

Yep, the vast majority of the plain boxes will hit stores the last week of the month. NHC is a special case and it's never good to rely on them for getting an LE. They're usually the only ones selling them online and everyone knows this. Any Tat or Viaje LE that hits NHC will be sold out in less than an hour (often less than 5 minutes).

Your best bet is still to call your closest Tat retailer and ask if they'll save one for you.

Yeah, the Face set had a leather sleeve as well, it was under the tray in the box. Honestly, I like the look of the Wolfman lighter, but not at retail price.

Cripes, you guys really want to spit out your coffee...

Check eBay for other limited edition DuPont lighters.

007 James Bond $1700

Cohiba (gold plated) $2600

Opux X $4700!!

There isn't enough room in my skull for how hard I want to roll my eyes at that. Wow. For that much it needs to serve as my primary mode of transportation as well.

Good Question.

In the past couple weeks:

$2000 http://www.ebay.com/itm/S-T-Dupont-L...ht_4179wt_1165

$1800 http://www.ebay.com/itm/ST-DUPONT-NE...#ht_500wt_1182

$1650 http://www.ebay.com/itm/S-T-Dupont-L...item564228067e

Going down from there.

OK, enough derailing this thread.

So has anyone smoked their Wolfman yet??

Re: The Wolfman
 
My dress box is working its way across the country by stage coach apparently and should be here by next Tuesday. I snagged two singles from NHC today and I expect those might make it by Saturday. If so, I may just burn one this weekend.

Got my plain box from NHC, they even included a pack of red rope candy since its Halloween and all.

These things are enormous, so clear out a few hours to work on one.

Got my box in Saturday and smoked one Sunday. Reviewed it so I'm going to try to get that up here soon.

Let's just say...it wasn't what I expected from a Monster smoke! And that's not a bad thing...:tu

Not that I am aware of, Eric....but they will. The box I purchased today was an online shop that sent notice they had a few boxes and to call.

If you want a 10 count before Halloween, bet it would take a quick search for phone numbers and a few minutes of calls.

I have no inside knowledge, but assume there are PLENTY of 10ct boxes out there, sitting on shelves, just waiting to be purchased and shipped....

Man, I wish I had been paying more attention earlier. This is something I would definitely be up for trying.

I need to go bug the guys at my B&M to see if they know where I can snag one.
