Don't mean to grave dig this thread, but we can agree that the ebay seller louthbird sells the same 649s that i would find in the department store or sunglass hut?? Legitimacy just means the world to me. Since im not looking to see how close I can get to the original, really just considering paying top dollar but not if its unnecessary.

I don't have any experience with the guy, but if you read the thread that's what they were saying.

I will not vouch for LOUTHBIRD and I'm extremely doubtfully of his authenticity. I'm certain he is selling high level chinese knock-offs.

I'm in Canada and I love my persols. I bought my first pair from the SUNGLASSHUT after I broke the frame, I searched online for a cheap alternative to my 2747s. I ordered from LOUTHBIRD matching my LEGIT originals to the LOUTHBIRD copy nothing matched up, there were slight deviations in materials from the leather case to the frames. I replaced the arms of the LOUTHBIRDS with my originals nothing matches up, in addition, the metal is flaking off my swords on the KNOCK OFFS. Lastley I've 4 pairs of persols never has the instruction manual come with poorly written chinese all over it total scammer scumbag.

LOUTHBIRD is a scammer and a liar when I complained he wrote I wanted them for free when all I wanted was a refund.
Total scammer scumbag. If you want persols buy from a high-level online retailer or suck it up and pay in store nothing worse then throwing down a few hundred for a disgusting Chinese knock off.

LOUTHBIRD I hope you sleep well-ripping people off with your disgusting chinese knock offs you POS.
