    SERENGETI SIMBA 5087M Corning Optics BRONZE
    Geometric
    Sunglasses NWT Vintage NOS
    These are new old stock! Authentic vintage 1982 Serengeti SIMBA species, style 5087M, with the gorgeous BRONZE metal and plastic frames that just glow. These have the Corning Optics "High Contrast Lenses That Change". They are the geometric style. These beauties still have the original tags, but no case or box. They are new old stock that I bought from a former optical dealer.
    Below is some information from Serengeti about these sunglasses.....
    SERENGETI EYEWEAR Simba Species. Designed for maximum sun protection, Serengeti Eyewear offers superior, optical quality frames and lenses. Plastic frames have been hand-made from custom materials and are reinforced with metal cores for durability. Metal frames are made of high quality nickel silver to retain the original shape and finish. Optical quality hinges have locking screws that can be tightened for years of wear. OPTICAL QUALITY LENSES Serengeti Eyewear ground and polished glass lenses provide clear, distortion-free vision. These scratch-resistant, impact-resistant lenses cut glare and absorb ultra-violet rays. SIMBA sunglasses come with these lenses: CONSTANT TINT Glass lenses that provide fixed levels of sun protection and are available in full, gradient and mirrored tints. OPTICAL QUALITY HIGH CONTRAST LENSES THAT CHANGE Formulated for enhanced outdoor visibility, the High Contrast Lenses That Change filter out selected light rays for highly defined vision. The amber lenses will change in bright sunlight to a deep brown, offering sun and glare protection while providing maximum contrast. Ground and polished for distortion free viewing , the Kilimanjaro glass lenses resist scratching and meet prescription optical standards.

    try to find and tell you about any imperfections I see..... Please be aware that close-ups exaggerate and/or amplify any imperfections that may exist. Also note it is possible that I may miss something.... but it is never intentional!
    Returns are no longer automatically accepted due to eBay's new rules. Please contact me if you have an issue with your item so we can work it out between us. Thanks!

    PLEASE NOTE.. I ask you read the following terms!
    U
    SPS Priority Mail International Small Flat Rate Box (most countries) is REQUIRED for any items selling over .00, and requires tracking.
    I will ship items under .00 via first class providing DELCON is available for that country. Right now some countries do not have Delcon, and I may not ship first class to you, so please ask if you are concerned.
    International bidders will be responsible for any and all taxes, duties, or tariffs that are charged. I will not falsify values, or claim the item is a gift, so please do not ask.
    Some items that will sell over 0 will show a flat fee. This is what it costs me to send an item to you insured with tracking. These are the conditions I set to protect both of us. There will be NO EXCEPTIONS.
    I can no longer ship to Russia, and I can only ship to Italy via Express mail with tracking & insurance.
    eBay does allow shipping fees to include a handling charge. This is all inclusive & covers shipping expenses like bubble wrap & envelopes, jewelry boxes, shipping labels, packaging material, delivery confirmation fees, etc.
    I am happy to combine all wins within a 7 day period. If you win an auction and are still bidding on something that ends in the next 7 days..... PLEASE EMAIL ME to let me know.
    Please keep in mind I start most of my auctions at a very low opening bid to make sure you, the bidder, sets the value of the item. This low opening price in no way reflects the value, quality or authenticity of my items. Please remember that most every item I sell is old and/or vintage.... which means USED! There is always going to be normal use wear or age spots in some of the stones/rhinestones.... this is considered NORMAL wear. I do the best to describe any major visible wear to the item, but if you have to look through a loupe and still have trouble seeing it, I might not mention it, or I might have missed it.
    Please don't expect to send an item back for NORMAL AGE WEAR or BUYER REMORSE!
    All sales, as in any auction, are final.
    Most auctions I prefer the actual classic auction format, where the price of an item is determined by the interest it can cultivate. I will only accept returned items if there has been a gross misrepresentation of the item. When was the last time you attended an auction and the auctioneer told you that items could be returned if you had buyer's remorse or just changed your mind? An auction should be where you attempt to get an item for less than what it would normally sell for. I try to describe flaws, wear or damage to the best of my ability and provide detailed pictures, dimensions and descriptions, so please read and view them carefully. If you have questions or concerns, please email them to me prior to your bidding. Payment must be received within 3 days of auction end.
    QUESTIONS/RETURNS
    P
    lease examine ALL the photos closely as they are the best representation of the item and its condition, and please read the text before placing your bid. Also, check the bottom of the page to see if any additional information has been added. I take many close up pictures so you can see details of the jewelry you are bidding on. Some items may appear larger in the pictures then they really are. Please email me with questions you may have. Vintage Jewelry is just that. Previously owned and loved. Please expect normal age appropriate wear. By nature, vintage jewelry is not perfect and I will always describe something that is beyond normal in my opinion. Some pieces may need a light cleaning or polish. Any necessary cleaning and polishing will be left to the new owner as some collectors prefer the patina of age and also due to the risk of possible damage.
    PLEASE LOOK AT ALL PICTURES CAREFULLY TO DETERMINE CONDITION AND VALUE.
    ALL MY ITEMS COME FROM A SMOKE FREE & PET FREE ENVIROMENT!
