Rare Frogskin List

I could see the argument but if that were the case they would have numbered each frame 1 of 1 rather than 1 of 50. Like I said I am sure to be in the miniority with my opinion but Oakley's intent for it at the time was as a series like the Blends or Fices or Colletes. The fact that we are labelling them #1 on the list because we just feel all the single Peterson entries should stand by itself does not make sense to me IMO.
 
TOWSNBN makes a very good point and I would have to agree with that. The series was released as a group of 50 and not as each sunglass released 50 times. Just because each one is different does not change the fact it is part of a series of 50.
 
have not seen a Petterson lately
but anyway . . .
i have one that´s good enough :lol:

that would be pretty complex . . .
for this you have to "count" every ebay auction or something like that!

with the list based on the numbers you know a bit how rare a pair should/could be.
 
Not only that but a list becomes very subjective if it is based on availability and would be very difficult to put together a list everyone can agree upon. Different regions have more available to them then others (try finding display items in China vs. items in California). On top of that older releases tend to be less available than the newer ones. For instance I have seen 4 times less Blade II Over The Tops available for sale over the last year than Petterson Frogskins. But we know the Pettersons have lower production numbers. Further everything has highs and lows. You may see 10 Polished Gold Supreme Frogskins this month but only 2 next month. It does not mean they are any rarer. It just means less people want to get rid of theirs.

All this to say that the production numbers are the only concrete criteria with which we can rank the Frogskins.
