Real Or Real Good Fake For This Ducati X-Squared?

[JesterC]

Found this on CL and the seller claims that its new, but only comes with microfiber pouch for $225, should I go for it???

Can't see the pics here at work, but I got mine for $220 shipped and honestly haven't seen fake ducati XS circulating around stateside.

Did you get yours with box and documentation and all that jazz for $220?

They look good to me, I can't see anything to indicate that they're fake. I got mine for $211 BNIB....

Yup got mine BNIB, with the "H" sticker still on the lens..

seller probably just wants his money back. maybe had an emergency or something.

Something to keep in mind is that not everybody is a collector and therefore doesn't give two cents about ancillary items such as the box, paperwork, etc. To them it was a cool red and black set of metal sunglasses that they wound up wanting to sell.

Now you have to decide if it's worth $225 for what you are getting, not a matter of if it's a fake or not.

I would also consider that not everyone has access to discounts on Oakley gear. If you were to buy them at retail, you'd be spending at least $400. $225 is just a hair over 50% off retail.

I picked up a pair of Ducati Juliets from the Vault for $199 + tax. No box, coin, rubbers, paperwork. I thought i got a good deal considering they're discontinued and since it's from the Vault, they're guaranteed authentic and in like-new condition.

I just picked up a 2nd pair of Ducati Juliets from CL for $220 and includes everything. I still think i got a good deal.

I say if you really want them, it's not a bad deal. From the pics you posted, it looks that you're getting a standard bag and not the ducati bag.
