X-metal In OH

[Tunney Prime]

Greetings from Cincinnati! Just joined the forum after catching the "oakley bug." It had been dormant since about 2006, but has come back with a vengeance...

Purchase history:

1996:M-Frame (black w/ red iridium * white nose & earsocks)
1998: Zero .4s (black iridium)
2000: X-Metal XX (x-metal frame w/ black iridium) (lost)
2003: Mag Switch (titanium frame w/ Ice Iridium)
2005: after 2 years, I found the XX's under my in-laws guest bed
2006: Hatchet (Mercury frame w/ Black iridium) first Rx lenses (perfect vision until age 23)
2012 (current): Juliets (x-metal with black iridium). 2nd pair of Rx.

Pairs i most regret selling: XX & Mag Switch

Now i just need to find some extra cash to go back and re-buy everything I've sold.

Dude i was about to congratulate you on finding those XMXX after so long... But youve sold them! Shame. Welcome!

Your wallet will suffer here.

True story. I've never been a "collector:" only ever had one pair at a time. BTW, after lunch, i realized i left a couple pairs off the list:

1996:M-Frame (black w/ red iridium * white nose & earsocks)
1998: Zero .4s (black iridium)
1999: Square wire (silver with black iridium)
2000: X-Metal XX (x-metal frame w/ black iridium) (lost)
2003: Mag Switch (titanium frame w/ Ice Iridium)
2005: after 2 years, I found the XX's under my in-laws guest bed
2006: Hatchet (Mercury frame w/ Black iridium) first Rx lenses (perfect vision until age 23)
2011: X-Metal Half X (carbon with black iridium)
2012: X-Metal X-square (pinched my head, so I sold them after a week. $50 profit!)
2012 (current): Juliets (x-metal with black iridium). 2nd pair of Rx.

and the Juliets just arrive about 30 minutes ago. Alas, I only get to wear them for today, because they go off for Rx lenses tomorrow...

Yeah...Oakley should really publish some sort of pamphlet for wives. Ideas for titles?

Thanks! It's dangerous living 15 minutes from an O store and 30 minute from a Vault...
