Just got my David Flores Gascan in the mail today and WOW!!! These are without a doubt the sickest and most beautiful glasses I have ever seen. For all of you collector's on the site they are a must. I paid out the wazoo for them, but honestly they were worth every penny. The brown color of the frame is so nice looking. I would compare it to chocolate. The design on the arms is pretty much undescribable. You simply have to see it to believe the beauty. Now I understand what Rick was saying when he could not put them down. My girlfriend is getting mad cause
I am ignoring her for a pair of sunglasses. If you have any opportunity to get a pair I urge you not to hesitate. My jaw is still on the floor hours later.

I guess a purchase like that deserves its own thread. Congradulations.

Better hide it! She might do something nasty out of jealousy.And yeah,its a nice purchase you got there...congratulations.

congrats.

I'm sure Rick is just as happy to sell it to you for what you paid for it. He basically got his for free...but heck, he's getting the goods out there that no one else can get so more power to him and the review.

Congrats, you now qualify for the purchase of these.

Definetely more power to Rick. There is no other way to get them. I know what retail on them is, so it was my decision to pay that much. Why does Japan have to get such cool exclusives? BTW I have the glasses sitting right next to on the couch as I am typing. Now I just need to find someone who has a pair of the REP exclusive white text Gascan that they are willing to sell for like $500. Those along with the Flores will make Oakley life almost complete.

I hear the remaining Flores' Gascans are in the Sano and Karuizawa Vaults now.

John what about the orange icon version, sure oakley life cant be complete without those?

Yeah, I know they have the orange icon version as well, but honestly it doesn't really matter to me. I am exstatic about just having a pair to call my own.

We kept watching the auction, wondering who the insane person bidding $600 was. ::LOL::

Lucky lucky you. Those would look so good in our collection...we need to find a way to score one.

::sigh:: If only they'd release like a couple hundred in the US...

Yep, I'm the crazy fool. But like I said they are honestly worth it to me. Now there are only 3 rare pair that I need to get ahold of...White Text Gascan, Crystal Black Gascan, and White Tiger Fives. It's good to have goals...lol!

White Tiger Fives aren't hard to get. In comparison to the other two.

In the word's of Napoleon, "Lucky."

Yeah, I saw a pair of those fives on the bay a few days ago. Weren't mint, but still in great shape. Didn't go for too much either.

Damn, I must have overlooked those on ebay. I check the site everyday looking for those 3 items. Guess I need to look closer. I just can't seem to get my hands on a pair.

What Crystal Black Gascans are you referring too.

I think he's talking about the ones that the elites got from Oakley when they went on the tour at HQ.

Oh, well I don't think searching on ebay will really help him there. Heck, I don't even have one.

Wait, I thought you got one, with Rick and a few other members that said "O-review" on the lenses. Am I wrong?

Nope, but regardless, they're not going to show up on ebay.

Haha, yeah.

There actually was a pair on ebay about 2 months ago. Unfortunately I was broke at the time and could not bid on them. I thin they sold for like $190. The same guy also had the black pair with the emerald lenses up for auction.

Total O?

Yes, I believe that was the seller.
