How to spot Fake Oakley Frogskins Thread - Warning! Fakes!

Hey everyone, back from a long hiatus and still after the Grenade Olive Greens! Came across this auction on ebay and wanted to verify with the experts:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/221524252076?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2648&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

They look pretty legit to me but I'm not expert lol

this other listing:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Oakley-...90581611?pt=US_Sunglasses&hash=item4ada54f86b

^^ I believe these are fake as they come with the warranty card… although I could be wrong!
First e-Bay link looks fine.
Correct micro-fiber bag. "Grenade symbol" laser etched on the outside of the left lens. "GRENADE" in yellow on the inside of the right ear-stem. Oakley logo should be in yellow on the outside of the ear stems.
From what I can see looks legit. to me.
Second e-Bay link looks fine also, although yes, black warranty cards don't come packaged in those god awful clear brittle plastic boxes.
Doesn't necessarily mean the shades themselves are a fake though.

second listing is legit...i made a bid on that before it was re listed at 175 and i was outbidded and i gave up lol his reserve must be high
 
Not much detail in those pix, but from the little there I would think they were real. Funny enough most fakes are advertised as polarized, but I havent seen too many Rootbeer fakes as of yet.
 
Most fakes are moulded off the fades, with the star in the right orbital. The Sku on the left inner arm is usually wrong and the little o is misshapen. Also, alot of fakes have oakley across the nose bridge or on the left lens.
 
Most times if it comes in a complete set its real.
I haven't checked the SKU's but both color combo's are in existence and looks real.
