One side is looser than the other, but both still good. Has some of the melted silicon at the bottom of the nose bridge.

I would say $180 to $220...leaning more towards the lower end. Your description is what is referred to as a beater frame or one that needs a lot of work to get it wearable. (Although, some people like to have a pair like this for sweating and wear reason...meaning they don’t care if they wear out or get dropped)

Melted Silicon?

Thats my non-official term, for the really sticky goop that drips out of the orbital/nose bridge connection and nose pads with years of wearing.

That makes me think it will need tuned...so the $180 value is what I would say...

Thank you for the quick review! (I also appreciate your post to teach me that here a "conversation" ='s PM

I'm looking at X-Man for a new Plasma Finish, and will start researching on a proper replacement lens.

Thank you again!

I have a pair of splatter mumbo but with a new jade iridium lense. The splatter pattern is the pink and purple with white splatter. I’d say 9/10 condition wise just to be safe

Looking for opinions. Had these 19 years maybe? Low serial number JB's with original and polarized lenses NEW. Needs a tune and polish which I am setting up ... maybe ... but have pains sending these off in a box in the mail to someone who might think my baby is ugly. Insure them? What are they worth really? 300? Or dudes at the store saying more like $1700? I kinda laugh at that but are they replaceable?

Yeah, they are replaceable...not sure if JB serial is worth more, but typical polished would be $300 range...assuming lenses are good. If it has box, value will be higher.

Send them to one of the members here to be tuned. x man customs or @zwc0442 both do great work. There are some others, too.

You say with original Polarized lenses.....this pair didn't come with Polarized lenses so I assume you are meaning the other lenses?
