Official Fakes/Possible Fakes Inquiry Thread (ARE THESE FAKE? POST FAKES HERE)

could any one help me out? i have sold a pair of c-wires (05-806) on ebay and the buyer is questioning their authenticity because they have no markings on the back of the bridge or inside if the earstems. i have explained to him that they wouldn't have at this time (2000-2005). if someone could post some pics of the back of the bridge or inside the earstems, that would be great. tia

here's some pics of them

Hi everyone
I bought a pair of Plaintiff Squared on Ebay from a seller with 99.5% feedback (of 6500 posts) but I can't tell if they're the real deal or not. I've owned a pair of these before and I recall them feeling a lot sturdier... with more metal than plastic, and heavier. These feel like completely plastic and cheap, but maybe it's just because I haven't gotten any new Oakleys in years. Is this just how they are now??? or did I find a pair of fakes?
Thanks for your help!

You're good
 
I don't know anything about minutes, but those are definitely not black frames. They are blue and I would say not fire iridium either as to me fire is more orange. I don't know if they are real of fake, but his description is definitely wrong.

Yes. They have to be the wrong description. I'm new here but I assumed if a member said they were real than they are.
 
yeah, unfortunately I'm more of an X Metal collector, so identifying fake minutes isn't my thing.

However given that the description is clearly wrong, they do seem to match the 12-514 SKU for minutes (gen 2) on O-review. I also didn't see a black Fire iridium colorway on O-review for the minutes (gen 2).
