I had a bit of bad luck with a pair of their "3182 Memory Titanium Full-Rim
Frame" recently. Got tangled in my hair taking them off and they broke in half.
However at under $40 including shipping verses $190 for the last pair I bought
through an optician. (Chain store no less and add $50 for the exam to both
prices) I think I will take my chances with another from them. Just not
3182's...
Oh, not that you can buy a single pair from these folks, this thread made me
think of this article I found a few days ago.

Quite an interesting concept!
