Default Lighter Repair Sources?

I have a Colibri Quantum Evolve and i love it to death.

It started having problems about 3 months ago so i just let it sit in an accessory box. I pull it out last night and the stupid thing wont spark but once every 20 times and it still doesn't light. I know the gas/flow is fine and my local B&M confirms that.

My local guy tells me that the quartz system is shot (i assume he means the piezo thing-a-ma-jig).

Now, I cannot return the lighter to Colibri to have fixed because they JUST went under (bankrupt). Does anyone know of a good place to send a lighter out to that will fix a Colibri?

Like i said, i've trouble-shot it and determined that it is the piezo/quarts mechanism.... Who has the tools/knowhow to replace it?




I am interested in having the lighter fixed. It's very important to me. I understand most places carry them for 50% off but i think i could still fix it for under 40.00

Besides, this was my first lighter. Thanks!
