Just curious why the square wire 2.0s are so high. They are 100 cheaper on eBay and amazon. Not trying to mooch or be confrontational just want to know if there is anything special about these glasses.

Also can I get pictures of the square wires and whiskers?

I'm not sure which square wire 2.0's you are referring to. The only thing I can say that might help without knowing which one is that they are all Brand new in Box never worn with bag and literature. Perhaps the ebay ones were in worse shape. I will send pics (and hopefully have them up here) later today. Thanks

Yeah, I was wondering why the Square Wire was so high as well. Are they special editions or something?

Ok I've gotten a few questions about the pricing for the square wire 2.0's and why they are priced the way they are so I will explain how I came to pricing the items so as to clear that item up. Keep in mind that all these pairs are brand new never worn with everything you would have got from Oakley:

Square wire 2.0 Titanium Pewter/VR28 BLue Iridium Polarized $320: Retail $305 before they were discontinued in 2005 or 2006. This colorway was also highly sought after when available and now are extremely hard to find (not one for sale on ebay in the last month or in any store I have been to) not to mention in perfect condition with box bag warranty etc. combine that with the fact that I paid retail for these (collection purposes only) then factor in that my price includes USA shipping, paypal fees, packaging costs, etc. and even with a $15 markup I'm still losing money on a true collectors piece.

Square wire 2.0 Silver/Fire Iridium $200: Retail was $170. Ebay was my only comparison. In the last month 4 pairs have been sold two below my price two above. All were used. The ones below my price did not come complete (glasses and bag only) and were highly damaged. As stated before my pair was never used and is brand new in the box with everything it originally came with again factoring in the costs stated before this will likely just about break me even.

Square wire 2.0 Silver/ Black Iridium Polarized $235: retail $210. Same costs explanation. Comparison was to Ebay inventory sold (1 item $245 +$9 shipping).

I tried to be fair with my pricing given the circumstances of rarity of the item, condition, and existing market pricing. I am not wholesaling my collectors pieces as I want to clear them out but I don't NEED to. Hope that answers those questions. I really should be doing my work but this is actually more fun lol.

^^^ In his defense I feel he is right with the pricing of these. I have gone through a few pairs over the years and the only ones I have left are a Fire/polarized. I saw a pair on Ebay go for over 250 lately no box. So a pair that is new in a box is worth it at that price.

Interested in the Gold Whiskers myself get some shots up or put everything in a folder and link the folder.

Ok so life gets in the way and prevented me from devoting any time to posting the pics yesterday. Then because i don't know what I'm doing I find out I can only use 10 pics per message after I paste all 38 images. But now I think I have it.
