Can anybody tell me what I should sell these for? The frames are loose, it's missing one rubber nose piece, the rubber earpieces are a bit worn, so I would say they could probably use new rubber all the way around. The polarized lenses have some scratches. I do not have original coin and box, but I think I might have a metal box but without the foam. These are sick glasses, I like the Romeo 2s a lot, but I need glasses that I am not going to be obsessive over and afraid to wear.

You mean the black plastic ones? Average price seems to be $30, $40, and $50 shipped with better price points in quantity. From the bay, expect a markup.

Unfortunately, not much. R2s are awesome but they lack replacement parts. A nosebridge tuneup will run $50 -$60. But nobody seems to make the rubbers, OEM or aftermarket; you'd need a buyer who already has a spare set. And the only replacement lens options are aftermarket, which many here won't go for. There has been a member who's been able to do custom cuts for R2 lately, but only for non-polarized lenses - the angle you have to cut them from the donors would screw up the polarization orientation.
Maybe $100 - $150, if you can find a buyer at all (just glasses). The metal box itself could get maybe $30 - $50.Last edited:

The black plastic ones yeah. Can someone buy those fro other sources than the bay? Hehe
Btw, how much does the metal tier 1 and 2 cost? Thanks @kronin323 kronin323

AFAIK the black plastic stands weren't officially sold to the general public but leaked out of the stores. And now they've been replaced with a clear stand that has more display flexibility but have a flaw where they touch the inside of the lenses of some frames, including x-metals. The best source is on the exchange here.
The metal stands tend to be more expensive but there's three metal 2-tiers for sale on the exchange right now @ $25 each; great deal.
Is that what I can expect on eBay or what the forum members here might pay? kronin323

Forum members. eBay's a crapshoot; after fees, you're unlikely to get more without being deceptive, which would lose you even more in the long run.
I would put the R2 at around $150 since it really needs everything. Ebay might fetch a little more but by the time you pay the shipping and fees and deal with someone who thought they would be brand new.....
