Oliver Peoples Vintage OP-505 w clip-ons (The Soloist x OP)

So I purchased these off e-g.co a little over a month ago, and they're probably the nicest pair of frames I've handled but unfortunately they do not fit my face at all. I've tried several times but oval frames just do not compliment my face type at all.

 

Here is the original link:

Tortoise shell frame with engraved metal on the bridge, hinges, and arms, clip-on sunglasses, made in Japan. Comes with the original box, case, cloth wipe, and all original documentation. Condition of the frames are 9.5/10, there's some wear on the lenses of the sunglasses but can easily be buffed out at an optometrist's office (have this done to my sunglasses all the time). There's a very slight prescription in the lenses, not mine they came with it from e-g.co, but you'll be wanting to put your own rx in them anyway.

 

It's rumored these were the inspiration for Takahiro's debute The SoloIst x Oliver Peoples frames... haven't seen a pair of those in person but from the photos there is a strong resemblance. I do know the recent OP "Reeves" frames are an updated version of the 505, but after handling both the OG is far superior.

 

Originally paid $325+25 shipping, looking for around 300 but open to offers before I put these on eBay.
