I also need to buy glasses for each eye and maybe take a new eyesight test. Total: about $950 :aargh: Edit: Found them on Google. What shocks me most is the price difference... ~ $150-$170 is the online price...hmmmm....

You can just lie and say you broke the lenses and want new ones, and might as well get an eye check while you're at it. :lol:

When I wear glasses (rare) I look like this.

Chief of Staff Posts: 6,143 Group: Admin Member #1 Joined: January 9, 2006	Alright, I placed an order online at: http://www.go-optic.com $210.95 for my Gucci 1438 eyeglasses. (only the frame) I did browse through a bunch of websites to check which websites could be trusted. Go-Optic.com wasn't the cheapest one, but the price was ok compared to the others and it seemed reliable enough. Don't go ALL CHEAPO when order online, always check other websites first. The glasses should arrive within a week. With the order, I also got 1 year's subscription for 4 magazines, but they charged extra for the shipping, so I said no :superhappy: Also, make sure you measure the eyeglass dimensions (length, height etc. get this info from your local optician) before you buy online! :)
