Exclamation At the mercy of manufacturers

Since starting my new job, one of my goals has been to buy another pair of sunglasses that I truly LOVE.

I had a cheap knock off pair back in the day that were great, but at the time I couldn't afford the top shelf version. Now, with my new job, I can afford the top shelf version but I can't find anyone anywhere that still has them in stock.

What are these coveted sunglasses of which I speak? The Morpheus sunglasses from the Matrix. As corny as most people would immediately perceive them to be, I have found no other pair of glasses as comfortable or form fitting as these.

I call upon all you web monkeys out there to help me find a retailer that has them in stock. Here's a link to them at BizRate, which just links to the Warner Bros website who doesn't have them listed at all.

Morpheus Sunglasses by Blinde Design

If anyone finds them for sale, and keep in mind I do NOT want the cheapo "costume" version, PLEASE let me know!!!

Thanks for looking guys. But all of those are the knock off versions like I used to have unfortunately. If you read the description of the pair I'm looking for they are made from titanium, which is a big difference from the plastic ones that everyone is still selling. Also it has a different nose clip that's wider so they're more stable. Above all that there is a HUGE price difference. I think retail they were going for around $130.

I can't find a contact for Blinde Design, the company that was making the licensed version. I may just have to contact Warner Bros and beg them to make me a pair. I would think surely in a stock room somewhere they still have a few units stashed away.
