Post #110 on this page of the “Recommendations for a torch lighter with GVG?” thread mentions lighters available on eBay that look suspiciously like the Arc. (search eBay for "Ergonomic Butane Jet Torch" )

The deal is for 3 lighters for about $30 plus postage, for a total cost of about $39, or $13 each! Sounded almost too good to be true, but I couldn’t resist ordering. Here’s what I said in post #111:

----------

I ordered those lighters the same day you made this post, and got them today. As far as I can tell, they are identical to the Arc.

In the attached photo, one of the lighters is my trusty Arc, the other is one of the eBay lighters.
Anyhow, they look identical.

They both weigh the same (113g, filled). The switch is identical, the flame is identical. Identical in every way. Except for price: $40+ for the Arc when shipped to the US. $13 each for the eBay lighters. So now I have 4 “Arcs”. :shock:

Nice find!

(The lighter on the left is the Arc.)
