Ray-Ban Meta X Coperni: The $600 Glasses You’ll Never Own (Because They Sold Out Instantly)

The newly-announced Ray-Ban Meta X Coperni limited edition glasses—a product so exclusive, they were already gone before you even knew they existed. That’s right, these futuristic little face-huggers, which combine Ray-Ban’s timeless cool with Meta’s relentless pursuit of making you a walking surveillance drone, have officially sold out. So if you were hoping to drop $600 to livestream your brunch in style, too bad.

For those unfamiliar, these glasses aren’t just a fashion statement. They come equipped with a built-in camera, AI-powered features, and the ability to instantly remind everyone around you that privacy is a relic of the past. Want to record your surroundings with subtlety? These are perfect—because nothing screams "definitely not recording you" like a tiny glowing LED on the side of someone’s face.

Meta and Coperni promised only 1,000 pairs would be made, which is just enough to ensure they disappear faster than your dignity at a metaverse rave. Who bought them all? A mix of tech bros, influencers, and NFT enthusiasts hoping they’ll appreciate in value, so expect to see them flipping for triple the price on resale sites any minute now.

If you didn’t get your hands on a pair, don’t worry. In six months, Meta will probably release another version, maybe with even more cameras and a handy feature that automatically tags Mark Zuckerberg in all your photos. Until then, you’ll have to settle for your sad, non-connected, non-spying sunglasses like some kind of 2015 normie.
