In good condition it’s worth 3-400 it looks like. I’m not real into the Half X but it sounds like yours is a plasma/Ice which around here the more colorful the better in terms of pricing.

Yeah thanks for the input probably just let the kids have them I think I paid about $350 20 years ago so all good they just seem a bit small on me

Cool. Didn’t know how young lf kids you were talking. Yours and mine must be much different

11&13 they just thought they were cool and I’m like I paid good money for them not to have them stood on or lost

They’d probably rather just have most of a PS5 then after you sell the glasses .. sell the vintage glasses to someone that can appreciate them.

Yeah, half-x aren’t the most collectible. They came out later and we’re priced higher than most others X-metals. They also didn’t get any representation in Hollywood so the trendy crowd never really got ahold of them. If I remember correctly, They had problems with the hinges and a lot of people didn’t like the way the fit. They’re still collectible and to the right collector can bring what IAMOBS said depending on condition.

Post a picture of them before the kids destroy them. Us Oakley folk love pictures.
