Hello all. For your consideration, I’m putting a few beautiful frames up for sale. If you’re interested, please email gary.brown@halton.ca I can email pics directly. Payment to be made via Paypal in US dollars, and INCLUDES shipping to United States or Canada. My apologies, but I’m unwilling to send outside of the US or Canada, the fees are just too high. It will be shipped with tracking from my location in Ontario, Canada. Any questions please let me know, I'll get back to you just as soon as I can, thanks
1. 24k X-Metal XX w/24k Gold Iridium lenses. SOLD SOLD SOLD. There’s no matching box or coin, I’m unsure of the generation, and there’s no serial on the left arm. I purchased this X-metal as you see it from Ebay about 6-8 years ago. So are these mint-perfect? No, but close. I’ll consider them used, but they were only displayed in my cabinet while in my custody. The frames are tight, no flaking, discoloration, scratches or scuffs. The torx screws and the rubber set have never been monkeyed with. The 24k lenses are bright and stunning, I can detect no scratches or scuffs. I’ve seen some lesser quality pairs here for sale, this one is very, very nice.
2. Carbon X-Metal Juliet w/Black Iridium Polarized lenses. $350. There’s no matching box or coin, I’m unsure of the generation, and there’s no serial on the left arm. I purchased this X-metal as you see it from Ebay back in 2007. So are these mint-perfect? No, but close. I’ll consider them used, but they were only displayed in my cabinet while in my custody. The frames are tight, no flaking or discolouration. There is however a very small light scratch on the underside of the left arm, almost undetectable. The torx screws and the rubber set have never been monkeyed with. The BIP lenses are great, I can detect no scratches or scuffs. I’ve seen some lesser quality pairs here for sale, this one is very, very nice.
3. Soviet Hijinx w/Dark Grey lenses. SOLD SOLD SOLD. Included is the matching Soviet box, Soviet bag, Soviet pin and Oakley paperwork inside. I purchased this frame from an Oakley Vault a number of years ago. So are these mint-perfect? No, but close. I’ll consider them used. I’ve carefully worn them only a couple of times, but were then displayed in my cabinet after that. The frames do not appear to have any scratches or scuffs. The lenses look great, I can detect no scratches or scuffs.
4. Black Chrome Spike w/Emerald Iridium lenses. SOLD SOLD SOLD. There’s no box for this pair, I purchased from Ebay a number of years ago. This is believed to be a factory-built custom that was never sold retail. For those that remember, I purchased from a seller called Total_o, who was thought to be a reputable underground insider from Oakley HQ. I’ve previously owned a Black Chrome w/Ruby, and have seen a Black Chrome w/24k as well, all believed to be factory-built. So are these mint-perfect? No, but close. I’ll consider them used. I’ve carefully worn them only a couple of times, but were then displayed in my cabinet after that. The frames do not appear to have any scratches or scuffs. The lenses look great, I can detect no scratches or scuffs.

I'm totally with you on that one Dr. I simply didn't believe I had the skills to mess with such tiny intricate components.

Last year, the little spring mechanism in the clasp that holds the post itself failed completely. I emailed Oakley Canada, and they sent me a replacement clasp. The replacement clasp itself is part #27-016. I paid a total of $135.06 Canadian, shipped to Canada, and I changed the clasp myself.

Ok... so that was a funny moment! I was looking at the couple pictures of your jacket thinking to myself, "hmmm, that looks kinda familiar', and then looked over my shoulder at the same jacket hanging from my office cubicle wall! I bought the same jacket off ebay a few years back. I wear it every day! It had tags when it arrived, but unfortunately, they're long gone. From what I remember, "Shell Jacket" sounds familiar.

I've got a pair or Black Chrome w/Emerald Spike, and a Black Chrome w/Ruby Spike... I'm still looking for a Black Chrome w/24k Spike to complete my 'set'!

Whooooop! Just brought home a fresh Jawbone BMX Chrome Array! They were previously won at at 'Behind the Tour' event. Verrry nice, the lenses are impressive! Question though, I've seen a few pics posted in past pages with the 'H' hydrophobic logo on the lens... are these truly hydrophobic? Mine have no 'H', and I really don't want to run them under water to find out!

Although I can't account for the wordy description on the inside of the arms, the picture does indeed look like a pair of Persols.
Persol Ratti 58230, is the correct name and model number to be exact. They're still advertised as Schwarzenegger's T2 sunglasses all over the internet.

The Spike is a great choice for a guy with a big head. I say go for it! I've got 2 pair, and I've clearly got a big head! I very much like the thin frame and the square-ish style.

Hey Dann... so far I like it a lot. I bought the 100 when it first came out, long before all the other models were even announced. But for my limited purpose, it's working out great! My previous equipment was Minolta, so getting the Sony was a no-brainer for me because the mount was compatible. I still have a ton to learn though.

Goldberg jumped out of some Dodge hemi last night, and had his trademark Ruby Mars swinging around his neck. He got quite a lot of airtime too, the reflection of the ruby lenses is impossible to miss.

Love watching Barrett-Jackson every time it's on. My eyes are dry from watching all 10 hours of live tv over the past 2 days. I attended the Palm Beach event a couple years ago as well. Amy is just as nice to talk to in person as she seems on the show. And way cute.

Noooo, no pictures yet. But on another note, on last night's Overhaulin', (at least in Canada anyway) Chip Foose wears his black-faced Time Tank for most of the show, and it's really clear in a couple of close-ups. And one scene when he's wearing his Chip Foose Gascans on his head! I thought that was pretty cool. A guy who actually wears his own signature sunglasses!
