Hi everyone, here I am asking your opinion about the value my Oakleys may have.
They are a pair of Juliet,
frame: polished,
lenses: fire iridium polarized;

they are sold together with a bunch of extras I bought later on:
- emerald iridium lenses
- ice* iridium lenses
- blue nose&ear pads
- green nose&ear pads
- red/black (Ducati) nose&ear pads

The glasses come in their original box although its outermost part, the one that actually closed the box by laterally wrapping it has gone missing.
The coin is still there as is the soft pouch and all the paperwork.
I bought them in January 2006, just checked my email = they have no serial.

That being said, now comes the itchy part, the condition. They are used, no BNIB, no collectors quality. I used them in every single outdoor activity I was involved which includes the shores of Tenerife with their deadly combination of wind and sand.

The frame, I would dare say, is in good condition. There are many scratches, but no major ones, you need to look at the frame from a very close distance to notice them. The nose bridge has loosened up a bit, but I can make the local dealer tighten it. Torx screws are fine, although some are starting to feel the age. Those are things that I would sort out before selling by taking them to the official dealer in the are who's also got a lab for repairs.

Fire lenses are the best kept in the lot. Only minor scratches. Again you would need to be looking at them from up close to notice. Not field relevant, not at all. They also show sign of wear around the outermost edges, that is, the part that goes inside the frame rail. Once they are mounted this goes unnoticed.

Emerald lenses have a major scratch on the left lens, you may notice it in some extreme situations but normally it would not be too much of an issue.

Ice lenses are the most consumed, both are scratched and the one on the right lens is quite relevant on the field.

Here you can see some pictures to get a better idea

*I clearly remember asking the dealer whether they were really Blue iridium, he showed me the data sheet he used for the order, blue was written on it, same with the box. Yet, when I compare them with the Ice iridium from my JPM Montoya's Valve I see no difference, so let's act under the supposition that they are Ice, as they sell at lower prices.
 
With all the extra rubber I'd say around $300
Maybe alittle more if you do in fact take care of the loose nose bridge and bad torx screws.
The extra lenses with scratches have no value at all.
 
Would would a fair price be for Jupiter factory lites, black frame, black arms, and black polarized lenses. Light scuff on lense (not very noticeable) and extremely, almost non ex distant ding in the frame.

Just have no clue about these, except they are awesome!

Complete with box and everything? Id say in the $125-150 range depending on how bad the lenses are.
Slightly less if just the glasses and bag.
 
Anyone got an idea on a price for these?

I know what they are in terms of the NYC limited edition but I picked these up in DE so dont have original box or poster.
Thanks
