Added in patch 2.4.3, these shades are sold in limited supply by Haris Pilton for ~~2000 gold~~. No faction discount is available, since Haris is no longer part of the Lower City faction.

Update: In patch 3.0.2 the shades now only cost 5 copper!

Kommentar von VanCleef

This head piece doesn't have a level requirement and doesn't bind, so for players that can afford to buy it, it's a good target for enchants like +100 health or +10 haste rating if you want to make levelling easy on low-level alts, or create a level 1 twink. However, a Noble's Monocle might be a better alternative, since it will probably be cheaper to get.

The equip bonus doesn't give a buff or anything, much like the Tux Jacket. ( http://www.wowhead.com/?item=10036 ).

I dont care if it isnt an actual reference but to me, It will always be a reference to Mitch Hedberg, RIP

For engineers who love the look but not the price, I recommend checking out these cheap knock-offs:

http://www.wowhead.com/?item=10503

From a distance, no one will know the difference between your stylin' fakes and the real thing!

Kommentar von 105622

Since the engineering goggles came first, wouldn't these be considered an "expensive knock-off"?
Just a thought.

Kommentar von 151059

The equip must be great for tanks...

Kommentar von 133561

who would actually spend 2000 gold on a pair of shades?

Kommentar von 22114

This is totally bank alt gear too. Nothing like wearing pricey pointless gear on a bank alt to shove it in people's faces that you're richer than they are.

Kommentar von 199762

what does this thing do anyway? :p

Kommentar von 185284

Received a major price drop and is now 5 copper

Kommentar von 117743

nice if you bought this for 2000 gold and the next day it's worth 5 copper.. lol!

Kommentar von ForcedPerfect

I'll let you guys in on something. Yesterday I made 75g by selling 3 pairs at 25g buyout on the AH after buying them for 5 copper.

I don't know who the hell is buying them, but I'm not complaining.

I'm just going to park an alt by Haris and buy them every 30 minutes or so. See how much I can make before people realize.

Just don't do it on Hydraxis where I am. :)

Kommentar von 27921

+ 10 haste rating enchant with this gave a 26% increase in weapon speed to my lvl 10 warrior...fun, fun!

Kommentar von teslarobot

New wrath hat similar to this would be Violet Hat for 55g 1c.
Fun to wear for alts from level 1 to 24 when the first hat with more than 2 armor appears the Azure Silk Hood or at level 18 if your Horde you can do the quest Dangeous! and get Hooded Cowl. Even then its only 33 armor, no stats till level 26 for Sage's Circlet or Watcher's Cap which oddly sell for almost as much as the Violet Hat. So your head is cold for quite a few levels.

Kommentar von 288251

I just love to wear this on level 1 and up to 24, its awesome!

Kommentar von Bsmx93

You never really have to repair this item.

Considering the fact that it adds nothing at all; and it doesn't pop away off your characters face when it breaks, theres no use to repair it.

Kommentar von edana

I had these enchanted with libram of constitution and used them on my alts when leveling. They 'broke' today and the enchantment dropped off when I repaired.

Kommentar von 342214

Man i feel so foolish, just this morning i sold my pair of ruby shades, unaware of there discontinued status, for a measly 25g. i had a vast collection of them in the past for turnover in ah, if i only knew the value for now.

Kommentar von 202129

Lucky me, just got them on AH for 20s

Kommentar von 323717

These are currently at 425g each on my server and do not seem to be going down any time soon. I really wish they'd at least add an equivalent item for WoTLK.

Kommentar von Akario

Can't wait to sell these by the last expansion and get my epic flyer!

Kommentar von 354330

Ah, crazed...I noticed someone had put Ruby Shades on AH for 1k gold, so without doing any research I thought why not, I'll throw them up for 750. Took 15 minutes to sell...very strange, rare yes, useful? Even as a fashion accessory you can barely tell someone is wearing them...people are strange in real life doing this. In a game...?

Kommentar von 354943

where can i find em?

Kommentar von Virsuoso

I just saw a few of these on ah for around 3000g buyout, so i threw them up for 580g and within a hour they were sold.

Kommentar von edana

I had these with +100hp before 3.1. The +100 hp became a binding enchant after 3.1 and blizz refuses to take the enchant off.

Kommentar von 220744

Snagged a pair of these today for my auctionhouse trader for 100g, a snip

Kommentar von 323717

I located a pair for 120 a few weeks ago, and only 21 today, curious why the price drop has been so dramatic -- either way I've snagged both for various alts at their prices.
Does anyone know if there is a particular reason for why the prices were low or was it simply people who didn't know what these can sell for?

Kommentar von 321529

they give you 20 plus kool

Kommentar von vocation100

I deleted these on an alt a few months ago because of lack of space in inventory, thinking I could just buy another pair later whenever I wanted. Ironic huh?

Kommentar von 343442

Is Haris Pilton still selling that or that was cancelled in another patch? By the way, this is a great thing I think, especially for low lvls.

Kommentar von dreadblood

hehe.. im lucky i bought about 5 of these.. becus now the price has skyrocketed i cn sell em for loads

Kommentar von 385630

When I was lower level, a high level tauren gave me a pair of these for free saying he could give them away since they were only worth a few copper anyways. I still have em :) yay. I think this is the only rare piece I have.

I wish wow would make more goggles available for non-engineers (even if they dont have stats), plus if the engineers could make them they would make more money considering that a huge problem with that profession is not being able to sell to anyone but a select few. More colors and shapes would be sweet.

Cloth wearers can always get a pair of goggles that are the same model as these by doing a quest in Netherstorm. I have a pair like that too that I still have in my bank and wear sometimes. I think they're called 3rd Grade Techinician goggles or something.

Kommentar von 298622

Oh no they are gone!

Sold my pair for a measly 2g to a 47 pally that couldnt go to shattrath himself, camped Haris for a several logins and no I find she dont sell them anymore.

cry - sob

Kommentar von CrittinRogue

i hate Blizzard for removing these shades, i havnt been on my bank toon ( lvl 5 warrior) in like 10 months because of these shades, i used to have them but i sold them for the only Battered Jungle Hat on the AH

Kommentar von Breotan

camped Haris for a several logins

That phrase has so much unintended win. :)

Kommentar von 459061

Just sold these on Akama for 1000g.

10,000,000% profit!

Kommentar von 475607

I don't see anybody with these anymore... and then I heard they were removed from the game for some non-apparent reason. I dug through my bank alt's bank slabs and whaddaya know, they they were. Now I use this for my tuxed-out bank alt and with all the whispers I get every now and then about where to get these shades, the tool tip description really isn't lying when it increases your chances of becoming the center of attention.

Kommentar von 525360

i've actually got a pair of these on hand. what are they going for?

Kommentar von Ellesica

Something tells me these would be amazing for a bank alt combined with a Red Dinner Suit and a Tuxedo Shirt.

Kommentar von Kicia

I've just bought a pair of this for 100G on AH O_o

Kommentar von jbrown744

Some fool is selling them on my server for 14999g

feathermoon horde

Kommentar von 136356

Selling a pair of these on Stormrage EU for 8000g
whisper 'Nooberz' or look on the AH if you are reading this recently after it being posted. :D

Kommentar von Happyfaic

I have obtained one of these, idk if anyone wants to buy. If you want to buy,, it's 18k gold, I am Jslayer on Auchindoun realm.

Kommentar von JoKyR

Yes, these do, indeed, have 10 armor, now. That means the two best Level 1 Twink Head items are now:

#2: This, a discontinued ex-vanity piece that can only be found on the AH, and which is sure to rise in price as soon as people realize what it has become, and...

#1: The Hallowed Helm, a rare BoP drop that can only be obtained during a period of two weeks every October by trick-or-treating every 60 minutes, putting out fires once a day, and constant, constant praying.

Gosh... you'd think Blizzard was trying to kill Level 1 Twinking, or something. No, wait, if they were trying to do that, they would do something huge like taking stealth away from Level 1 Rogues, taking Healing away from Level 1 Priests, and giving all Level 10 characters HUGE buffs...

Uh-oh....

Edit: Wait just a minute! Blizz just added 40 armor to Battered Jungle Helm! Woot! (The Chef's Hat also has 40 armor, but is impossible to get at Level 1.)

Also, for the record, 2 armor has been restored to Purple Turban, Spring Circlet, and Violet Hat. Crown of the Fire Festival also has 10 armor. And, the Winter Hats have 11 armor.

Kommentar von 674923

someone selling a pair on the Wyrmrest Accord Alliance Server for 100000g o.o

Some people would actually buy that?

Kommentar von Cintari

The appearance of these seems to be bugged for female Worgen players as of patch 4.0.3a, as they appear to be blue instead of the red they appear as in human form.

Kommentar von deepred

These have effectively been replaced by the Rhinestone Sunglasses.

Kommentar von 767297

If you want a free alternative to these shades and you are at least level 70, go to Shattrath and accept this quest Die Multiphasen-Vermessung If you don't mind keeping the quest in your log to have the shades, it's a better looking alternative imo. Red with silver frames and a headlight light beam effect. Just accept quest, then don't do the quest, and you can wear the shades all you want.

Kommentar von CrittinRogue

As of patch 4.2.0, the goggles are still not available to buy from Haris Pilton.

Kommentar von Berwind24

so if i we're to try to sell this in Auction right now as in patch 4.2.2 how much would i be able to get off of it?

Kommentar von AddictedPoi

The big question Is: can I use the item to transmog a cloth head?
Saw someone selling it on trade for 30k

Kommentar von 963790

There seems to be a lot of back and forth about this item. Is it still available or not? Also, what is the selling price these days from Pilton?

Kommentar von giantgrape

You can mog certain white(common) items, Brunnhildar weapons CAN be mogged. As for any others i have no idea, just have to see for your selves. The shades are no longer sold by any vendor in game, btw, as for the price, I'd rather have Rhinestone sunglasses :P

Kommentar von smackthekids

This just goes to show you the importance of stocking up on unique, vendor-bought items with no other available sources while they're cheap !

For about 2,500g you can buy:
- 5 of every single <5g vendor BoE recipe in the game (99% are <5g)
- 10 Netherweave Bags for your new bank alt
- 10 to 15 of every <2g Vendor Head/Chest/Leg/Weapon that have unique models
- 25 of any low cost item with a high probability to be removed from the game (ex: world-events while they're current, drops from mobs in zones being re-done like Scholo/Scarlet Monastery) before they get removed.
- Mail everything to a new level 1 alt
- Let it sit there for a year, 2, 3, however long, and when you least expect it, with 0 work involved, one-by-one many of those items become 5k, 10k, 25k, etc, and you have ALOT for a small investment of 2.5k.

Did that with Ruby Shades; let's just say it paid off.

Kommentar von Kitariel

Whats the update on this Item? Last I heard they had been removed from the game.. are they gone for good?

Kommentar von Animegirl

There are sunglasses that look sorta like and updated model of this sorta Strassbesetzte Sonnenbrille.

Kommentar von bronsta97

I guess the reason why it doesn't have the red writing saying "This item's source is no longer available/removed" is because the source (Haris Pilton) is still available but she no longer sells this item.

So this item is no longer obtainable. Unless you buy it off a player.

Kommentar von Furydeath

sadly not part of the transmog table in legion.

Kommentar von Shayd0ce

I just put some in the AH that I had saved from the Burning Crusade ;) (EU Zul'Jin)

Kommentar von MasachzCz

They are no longer obtainable since Patch 3.0.8 (2009-01-20): Removed from Haris Pilton's sales inventory.

The existing Ruby Shades have not been removed from the game and occasionally turn up in the Auction House for a high amount of gold.

Kommentar von DontTreadOnMe

I've got 2 pair of these Ruby Shades. I've had them for 10 years or so..............they are now going for about 300,000 to 450,000 gold on the AH, I might need to sell me one :)

Kommentar von Eromee

As of recently, this item, if you can find it, will be added to your transmog collection! But, 1.5 million is pretty tempting, as well...

Kommentar von avatarofshadow

(2023) The feeling of finally pulling a pair of these out of the alt guild bank and LEARNING them was so worth the wait.

Kommentar von Drakknfyre

Every time I see this item mentioned I feel sick because I had a pair and lost them. They were super-expensive at the time but for like one week before they were removed they were dropped to 5c. And I bought a pair. Wish I'd bought multiple pairs, but didn't because there were no indications they were removing these, just that they dropped the price.

Some time afterwards I had run out of room across my characters and was using the old trick of mailing things back and forth, which let you store things for 30 days, then you just mailed it back and got another 30 days. This works great until you take a break, unsub, and forget about the mail juggling. When I resubbed and remembered, it was too late for an item restoration.

Kommentar von wondersie

Have a pair of these on boulderfist eu if anyone wants to buy them. wondersie#2581

Kommentar von ameenova

I didn't know this is worth a lot of gold until I checked it out
back in 2009 and before I quit the game I know this will be worth something in the future so I bought 4 of this from low lvl players for 200g each or something.
I logged in today 08/20/2023 to find out it's worth 850k-1000k each O_o
