Looks like a Value Village tag, no?

I've scored Ray Bans at Value Village on two occasions. I paid a fair bit more than that for some aviators in the case.

Looks like the original lenses are gone. If you want to be pretty certain that the glasses are legit you can check for BL etchings either on each the outer side of the lenses
or BL engraved in the metal piece visible under the plastic nose pads.

Not bad for $2. Tax ain't so bad over there like it is here either, is it?
 
Great deal. The people that run donated thrift shops up here think they run retail stores by the prices they charge. Thank goodness for our Dollar stores.

Have you ever noticed that the likelihood of having your misplaced sunglasses returned to you by a stranger is inversely proportional to how much you paid for them?

I hope you enjoy your $2 shades for many years.

Thanks!
Yes, Value Village
Taxes here are 5% (GST, no provincial tax)
Tried getting a picture of the plastic nose piece...I think thats a BL
