Yea, my cheapo pair of fake Oakleys I bought for $5 in Manhattan 3 months ago finally snapped on me. I've seen a couple of sites so far, but they all charge around the same price of $15 + shipping. Anyone have experience with them? Thanks.

I've only seen a few sites that sell for 15 a pair plus shipping, and so I ordered a pair of C-Wires and "X-Metal Romeos".....I'm still wearing the c-wires cuz they fit and look better, but they're definetely worth the money, considering they look quite comparable, and you saved a hell of a lot of money. :)

if you're still in Long Island just go back to Manhattan... on something that cheap shipping charge is always gonna screw ya... there's always local places that sell that type of stuff, check your city's "warehouse"-type district...

Replica outlet glasses are crap.

If you don't mind paint falling off, lenses popping out and frames snapping in 1/2 then buy away. My daughter wanted a pair of Oakley minutes so bad it pained her but I wasn't buying a 10 year old kid a pair of $70.00 glasses. I decided to order a dozen from replica outlet for her and her friends. I gave them to her friends and had a few left for some buddies of mine that bought them at $20.00/pair because they looked real. The whole deal cost me $100.00 and I broke even.

That was last September and not one person still has a functional pair of glasses. They are junk PERIOD!!

Your best bet is to buy a nice pair of genuine Oakleys with the hard case and take care of them. This is a classic case of you get what you pay for.

I personally own 2 pair of eye jackets, 1 pair of Twentys, 1 pair of c wires. I have never had a problem with any of my genuine Oakley glasses.

If it wasn't going to take so long, I would have given it a shot.
Where in Manhatten can you find the fake ones? That will be my best bet as I'm going on a short vacation, but I don't want to be driving around forever.

There is another site that sells replicas here. I'd be hesitant to order anything from these sites though... if I need a pair I think I'll go check out a street vendor downtown, at least I can see the sunglasses before buying them!
