Maybe I'm being a tad over cautious. But how advisable is it to buy something off fleaBay from Hungary?

More specifically I'm looking at these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171020943551?

I know there's a lot of fake Oakleys out there and was wondering if anyone had an opinion on these Salice glasses.

    You can get them cheaper from UK based online stores.. so why are you looking at foreign ebayers?

    Any other opinions before I stop being a gimp and just buy them?

    First I know nothing about, the second I do as it local to me & V good as a LBS but also do postal stuff too.
    Pain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.

    I already googled my socks off, which is why I asked you for the link, I wouldn't have bothered otherwise. I can't find any in the colours I want other than from the fleaBay store. I was simply asking whether it's advisable to do so as I don't have any experience with eBay.

    Not sure what is worse, the fact you want to buy possible fakes from abroad, or your appalling fashion sense.

    I bought a pair of Salice photochromics from that ebay seller. Is legit. Came pretty quickly too. Mine are the 004 as I wanted the thinner arms to fit in my helmet vents. Good specs.

    I don't want to buy fakes, that was the initial query. My fashion sense is awesome. Im like Gok Wan.

    Thanks Dan and Goonz, appreciate the help.
