Designer spectacle frames: second hand market?

mike004

I have had a pair of mens specs, made by Police, for about five years. They suit me perfectly, but the frame arm has a slight crack and will need replacing at some point.

I would like to replace like with like. But unfortunately, Police no longer make this frame model.

Any ideas for picking up a second hand pair in decent condition?

Searching on the web picked up a hit on ebay, but they were the wrong colour/size.

eBay is probably your best best. Don't think many people do sell their old glasses due to the hassle of needing new frames anyway and after a few years of use they tend to be more prone to cracks so they aren't really worth much.

Probably best just getting a new pair so you can get another five years use. The money saving answer would be to not go for designer, mine are just cheap ones from glasses direct.

I always give my old glasses back for charity , never dreamed of selling them
