I want to buy oakley Mars from eBay but how do I know they are authentic and not replicas? Do they even make Mars replica?
@happios4 жыл бұрын
Unless you are a collector, the fake ones are just as good as the real ones. There will be small differences but for 1/10 of the price I think those small differences are fine. I own original Oakley xmetals but buy replicas to wear outside. Oakley lens are overrated. Their prizm lenses are pretty nice but non-prizm lenses are easily replaceable by 3rd party lenses.

Yeah you're right, I do also have an original Pitboss and a replica which kinda similar to its original and wearing it for outdoor activities more often . However the purposes of this video is something different, he is not trying to say that these little differences make a huge difference. They're doggy people out there trying to sell a $35 AliExpress crap for $ 600 or even ! You need to be aware of that, right? It's your hard earned money that's a whole point, other than that nothing wrong with replicas

I agree, thanks you wrote that - fakes are perfect in many conditions (living in iceland - perfect for a sunny trip on glacier, sunny day, driving a car, you name it, they are perfect, you see the world as it is, unless somebody asks: hey!? are these real romeos? is there a serial number kind of question : )

I have had 3 pairs of originals, and I did like them . At this point though, I would pay a cheap price for something that looks similar and made of metal. I can’t spend 500$ or more for real ones anymore.

There are people selling the frames for 400 bucks on ebay claiming they are real. The sellers are from Venezuela. So watch out.

To be honest I don't mind fakes if people are paying the right fair price for it, my problem with fakes is when people are scammed and pay the amount for a real one, or think they're getting a good deal by paying less than retail but still way higher than what the fakes are worth. Specially if buying online, a lot of people will be scammed by these fakes I can tell. That's why it's so dangerous that knocks offs get too realistic and close to the real product, will deceive a lot of people :(

Wish they would do Homages like watches, ie copy design but not markings. I love Monster Dogs which are getting hard to find for sensible money, i wear em for work. I searched on Amazon a few years ago and some Look Alikes came up no markings but loocked decent. Bought a few pairs but never thought to see if original lenses would fit. Can;t find em now.
