    My son was digging thru my dresser drawers and found a box with an old pair of Oakley sunglasses I bought in the 90's...he asked if he could have them.

    Sorry son, a quick search on Ebay says these are worth upwards go $1000...WTF, who knew? I guess I'll have to give him a finders fee.

    Imagine what your RED ONE #83 will be valued at in 15 years.

    I´ve a pair of them laying around here somewhere also, I remember buying them right after i watched Mission Impossible I. Didn't know they raised so much in value.
    Good to know, will store them in a better place now ;)

    LOL, $1000 for the Romeo's? Hehe... I still have a few old pairs of Oakleys too. None of them in good condition though. I typically wore them out before moving on to new ones. Maybe I should clean them up and eBay them, if people are willing to pay. I think I have a brand-new, still in the box, blue iridium lens for some M-Frames, circa '92. :)

    I lost the ones in my profile picture :-(

    You only loose expensive sunglasses. Thankfully that doesn't happen with cameras!

    i lose every pair of sunglasses, period. that's an historical fact.

    definitely glad it's easier to keep track of cameras...

    I think Jim should make a RED digital pair of sunglasses. I wear my own companies hat and shirt all the time... but sunglasses I can't really brand. I would totally get me some RED sun glasses ;). After all, he knows that game.
