The hinge is broke. I call Zippo today and they said they would fix. But could not fix the 3 barrel hinge. They would
replace it with a new hinge.

My question does any body know of someplace to have this repaired.

See Picture of what needs to be repaired.

Thanks for looking. OldYooper/Edgar

Looks like the hinge pin is bent and worn.

A good jeweler could probably fix it for you.

If you send it to zippo, they'll probably replace the case and send you back the old one if you request that.

This is a $400 to $500 Lighter if the hinge was not in disrepair. I want the original to be fixed.
Thank for Comment. OldYooper/Edgar
 
As stated, a good jeweler can fix it, or like I had done the jeweler sent it out to the appropriate repair shop. It was a little silver box from the '39 World's Fair. About a two inch +/- hinge pin. You can't tell it was repaired. Good luck.
