All the glasses on the whole site are 83% off. Seems a little sketchy.

Don't get these. There are only retailers that are allowed to sell Oakley's at a discount. Oakley, like other luxury brands (Prada, Gucci, Louis VItton, Tempurpedic), practices price control. ALl retailers must sell the product at a set price and CANNOT discount without express permission or they will lose their license to sell the product.

theyre fake, who cares?

95% of the people who see them will probably think theyre real so i say go ahead and buy em. no big deal if they break or you lose em this way either, the lens just might be shitty

news flash for anyone thinking they're ridiculously realistic....they say "Oakey" not "Oakley".....but then again most people wont really notice, there's like half an l in there.

lol there is no difference
frogskins are like that
see check here http://www.oakley.com/products/6758/25341 that is from the official website now click op's link. If you can spot a difference then well your amazing. The angle of the pic in op's link makes it look slightly different, they look exactly the same

This.

However I was going to buy some knockoff bike jerseys/racing kits on a site like this, but did some research and found out the site was really sketchy with like not shipping you stuff or stealing credit card numbers or something. So just be careful.
