You don’t need to put this on your insurance, they are not worth that much. It’s a nice serial number!

Are you able insure Oakleys? I looked into years ago and my bank said I couldn’t. I was shocked but didn’t really pursue it

@Tim Pennings hi there, firstly welcome to the forum, these are Plasma Juliet’s with fire iridium lenses. Really nice pair and very low serial. He was right low serials do command a higher price & are more sort after amongst collectors. If they are just the naked pair without a box it will bring the price down a little bit in comparison to complete with box but not massively. Here in the UK a pair like this being sold on its own I would imagine anywhere between. £180-250 depending on if the lenses have any scratches and they may need a nose repair. With the low serial I would say potentially add another £50-100 on top of that? So rough ball park £250-350. Some may say more others may say less, but that’s just my opinion!

Bone plasma is slightly more valuable

That’s where I’d put them, here in the U.K. recently eBay auctions have been going crazy x metal are hitting silly high prices, but almost half of them end up getting relisted 2-3 times due to non payers. If these came up for sale I’d buy for £200-225 no questions, any higher I’d leave for someone else!!

I miss the days (not to long ago) I would get my matching sets under $400/$500.
