I think they're kinda cool... but yeah, way too pricey. I could make a hudnred pairs of these for what one pair costs.

I like the alligators though >.<

HAHAHAHA not for 80+ dollars I don't need them! Definitely not my style of jewelry either.

I would love some kind of scooter earring, though. I want the Vespa brand merch to pop back up on Fab.

In don't have $80 to spend either... But I do think they are a hoot. However, I do jewelry, and I do photo-etching and enameling, so I think I am going to do a small photo-etching of my scooter, enamel it and do some fun earrings for the summer. I actually did my own key ring. If they turn out I can do some extra pairs. I did a badge for my leather jacket too. The funny thing is I do all kinds of stuff for other people, and never, or rarely get to do anything for me lol

I'll take two pairs at $25 each then!

Tip for Fab members: If you're going to link, use your personal link for the item. That way you get credits should someone join and buy anything. The easiest way to get the link from what I've found is by hitting the Twitter share button, then copying it from there. Fab tacks a little code at the end to identify that the click through came from you.

My code is irpt60, so my link would be:
http://fab.com/sale/5289/irpt60/

Sharing and earning credits is the name of the game!

I'm a bit of a Fab addict. Most recent purchase:

Lol... That's about what I sell them for Eric! I used to have a really nice metal studio until the economy crashed... I worked in sterling and fine silver, 18k and 22k and sometimes platinum. With precious metals being what they are, I got into more pop-art types of things, and using alternative materials. Love photo-etching though. It's just a different way of thinking, not really a compromise. And BTW... That print would look pretty cool photo etched into a badge with a red enamel back. I can see it now.....

What are you going to do with a hundred pairs?!

Not for me; gifts for the ladies.
