Do you know anyone that paid a lot of money for these? I bought 10 for a little more than $1.00 each a few months ago to share with my extended family in the path of totality. These are from a NASA approved supplier and seller.

Turns out my brother doesn't want any of his kids using them. We're going to a large county fair today and I'm thinking about selling them for $20 each. That's considerably less than what I've seen online in some places. Is there really this kind of a demand for them?

I didn't think you needed them in the totality path.

So you've seen what they're going for online but still wanted to come here and ask if there is demand for them?

you could be cool and just give them to some kids that wouldn't get to see it any other way.

Not in my house there isn't No clue about your country and the kind of people who go to the country fair.

They cost a $1, just give the damn things away if you won't use them.

Lowes had them for $3 a piece. They are darker than my welding lenses so I know I'm good.

You're going to get beat up at the county fair. Just put them on Craigslist if you need the money.

Can't wait to have these threads pop up again in 7 years. People will throw away their Eclipse glasses and then scramble again a week from the next one
