Need an Oakley Crowbar -- frame only

[upallnight]

Anyone know of a source for one?

I love the goggles and currently have one frame + 2 lenses, but if a frame can be had on the cheap I'd prefer this than having to swap lenses routinely based on the morning's weather.

Does anyone know if Oakley will sell the frames for a reasonable cost? I'd call them, but they're obviously closed now.

Thanks!

Update from Oakley: They sell new frames @ $44, but only if you send in your old frame....so this isn't a viable route.

Anyone know a source for just a frame?

Thanks!

I saw one on ebay the other day if that helps

for real? i see tons of 'em on ebay (tons of MX ones), but none that are "frames only". (and some people are asking higher than retail for frames + lens)

I have basically the same issue, except with A-frames. An Oakley "vault" store (outlet store) just opened up here north of Seattle so I'm hoping either they a) have frames only or b) are selling persimmon lens A-frames cheap enough that it is worthwhile.

i work at the o store in chicago--dude theres no way to get frames only on anything. might as well buy a new set with a cheap lens like persimmon--theyll run like 90 vs. the usual 130. Asa far as eyewear goes, that stuff NEVER goes on sale. if you somehow find them for cheaper horde them and sell them later en masse. I get a good discount, but so far I only get 4 pairs at my discount, 3 of which are spoken for. In a couple months ill be abe to help out the mags when i get to buy more at a time.

ps vault stores are a great option if youre near one or know someone who can hook you up. half the time i don't even use my employee discount there because the deals are so cheap. usually a frames can go down a little, rarely crowbars. if so itll only be like 20-30 percent off.
