Oakley Sunglasses.
Okay most of us know that Oakley's are the Dobermans Dangles 
so it's time for a new set since summer is hopefully just round the corner, I've been looking around and can't find anywhere that does them cheaper than normal retail 
does anybody have any links to decent web-sites, I've tried some US ones but they say they won't sell outwith the US due to Oakleys rules 
I'm tring to find X-metal pennys, idealy in the polished frame/blue lense configuration, also I'm a bit wary of buying them from e-bay incase they're fake/scrathched etc.
Thanks
John.

I know it's the usual story, probably made in a sweatshop in some far flug country with workers getting 50p a week.

FWIW I've always found oakley's pretty good value - i got through 2 pairs of frogskins but unfortunately both got lost/broken during "lost weekends". I found them great to drive in, really reduce eye strain when doing long motorway stinks in france. AFAICR they were only about £60 a pair. I think I'll get another pair for this summer.

Got my last pair from Dales Cycles up in Scotland somewhere. They were the cheapest place I found.

I got my last pair off ebay from America. Square wire 2.0, silver with fire lenses. They cost me £87 last summer (£150 here) and they are awesome. Although there is a risk involved buying something like this off ebay, I find that by thoroughly checking feedback etc, you should be alright.
I will be buying my next pair the same way, no worries, especially with the exchange rate as good as it is now. Incidentally, the first pair I bought were from somebody in this country and they were snides. I got a full refund.
