Hellooooo! :D

Hey everyone!

I'm JOhn from New Jersey. I just wanted to drop by and say my Hellos! I have always been a fan of Oakleys, but started more as a casual fan - Someone from outside looking in. I always thought growing up that Oakleys were great but too expensive for me. ;)

So 10 years ago, I had LASIK surgery and to celebrate I bought my first Oakleys - The Juliets. ;) Over the years, I've collected several other Oakley sunglasses and items. My main focus which really brought me into the fold were the X-Metal Juliets. Like many, I was sad that Oakley fazed out the X-metals, so now I plan on slowly collecting the older ones, like the Mars and the Romeos.

Hope to experience more with you all!

Thanks!

JOhn

Btw, why is it a perfect time to buy X-Metals? I would think it's harder and even more expensive since they're discontinued, right? :)
 
@johncatral Welcome from just north west of you (well, depending on where in Jersey you are). Thanks for finding us and signing up (and helping to support the site!)! I just quoted you in Jaytypes Romeo thread. ;)

It's the perfect time to grab some X Metals because the market is soft on them right now. Great deals to be had, especially in our exchange section, which you have access to right now as a premium member!

:)
 
@cyclerdoug is correct:cool-33:. Prices are much lower than I have seen within the last 3 years, plus some people need the money after the holiday season and are unloading them for less than they would normally take. I would say peak prices come in the spring/summer? I'm usually too busy with work to spend (wasteo_O?) as much time on here and looking elsewhere for x-metal deals to notice what the prices are like during the warmer months.

If I had @OakleyFrankFMJ disposable O money none of you punks would even sniff an X Metal between now and May.

Or until my electric got shut off.
