op u did not specify the most expensive part which is the lense. i would pay like 30-50 maybe for that without the lens or with a persimmon. add 25-35 for iridium lens add another 25-30 for polorized add 10-15 for fall/winter/spring pricing

retro straps are worth a bit more b/c they are limited, but 100 is a steep price for a used pair of frames. i have the same setup in all white with white/blue retro strap (9/10 no pilling/no issues) and fire lens (9/10 light scratch) i'd sell for around that.

y would u not want the fire? even if you dont want the lens for daily use its a legit highly desirable lens, great for sunny days. its worth 40-50 if in good shape. the guy u are talking to is unreasonable and not knowledgable about the market for these things

Hi I'm here. As I told him I don't need or particularly want to sell anything I have but if another NSer really wants something I have to complete a setup then I am willing to sell.

I understand that less people on here are interested in Crowbars than in the past but frankly I would rather keep my collection than sell for some of the offers that are PMed to me on a daily basis.

They are my goggles and it is my prerogative to name my price as well as choose who to sell to or whether or not to sell. I also sell my gear on other forums where the prices differ from what 15 year olds are willing to pay on NS so while I may not get what I am asking on NS I may get it elsewhere.

Some people think some Jiberish hoodies are worth 150 bucks, personally I wouldn't pay more than 50 bucks for one. Different strokes for different folks.

YOU ARE ALSO CALLING OUT A KID FROM LOWBALLING

GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT ON WHAT A USED GOGGLE SHOULD SELL FOR BEFORE CALLING A KID OUT

100 is stupid, 85 is stupid

just realized caps was on

I never once used the word lowball in my messages with him, he glamorized that. The only time I even used the word low was when he offered 50 for a white frame, brand new white riggers, brand new blue riggers and a white retro strap

That comes out to 12.50 a part, which in my opinion is low. Like I said I understand many NSers are trying to get rid of their Crowbars as they move on to Splices/Airbrakes/Canopies or non-Oakley goggles so they may be lowering their prices.

Unlike them, Crowbars are still my go-to goggles so I am more willing to hang on to all of my stuff.

No goggle without a lens is worth $100.

And to kneehands where do you sell that they would pay 100 for crowbars? I need to know about this place so I can cash out.
