Geesh!

I was truly unaware such existed. Where are these people located? Have
you done satisfactory business with them? The product is good?

As I type this, with my ~$600.00 glasses, I am beginning to wish I'd known
about this sooner!

Me, too. But, I've got an odd prescription (very nearsighted, bad
astigmatism, bifocals). A few years back, I tried to save some money. Pearl,
LensCrafters and Wal-Mart completely phuqued up the prescription, but all
said "We followed the numbers provided by the doctor". Well, not really.
Back to the usual expensive optician, who did a perfect job, as usual.

Fortunately, this little experiment cost me nothing but wasted time.


JoeSpareBedroom:

I am sure you realize that did NOT actually answer the questions I
posed. Mainly why I asked, when I do business with off-shore
associates, I get a mastercard debit card, place an appropriate sum on
the card and handle it that way ...

Could you expand on what I previously asked, it would be greatly
appreciated?

Such as, you have a pair of these glasses which you find acceptable? I
do take your previous text as an affirmative, but would like concrete
confirmation--I know the money is small, which is at risk, still I don't
like being "stiffed."
