I just have a pair of custom built Oakleys, and a pair of Spy that are fairly beat up but like 6 years old

I'm with you guys, high end sunglasses are the only way to go. Sadly you don't realize that because you've only used cheap ones. I have a pair of Oakleys I hold onto for dear life. I found the pair on Amazon and watched until they were $60. I doubt I'll find a deal like that again.

I had custom built mine, like $225 for the suckers... but it was my first pair of oakleys and I always wanted to get a pair custom... I got my Spy for free, my wife won them from a optic planet giveaway on facebook

I got/had/will have again Oakleys too, desert camo radarlock path, bought them with every colour lense available and all the spares. Hope I do find them, one to was n one to wear would be cool. As it stands I've just paid more for a new frame than for a complete pair! Haven't had a reply email yet.. I'll get the big guns out tomorrow

I had a $20 pair from Walmart that I had for three years before I lost them somewhere. I won't pay a lot for them because I wear my sunglasses on my head. I don't want to have to put them away, get them out, put them away, get them out, rinse and repeat. I make sure the sunglasses I buy have no nose pieces (they get stuck in my hair) and just wear 'em like a headband.

I am not disciplined enough for expensive ones either. I will freely admit it.

I typically keep mine on my hat when not in use lol

Lost my fave sunglasses somewhere, not cheap either   Because I'm left with five spare lenses and various other spare parts in a pretty case I had a good look online for an exact replacment. Found a stockist for a new frame so I could still use them, perfect! seems stupid to bin them and buy a differnt pair imo.
Anywho, I found a bargain and jumped on it obviously.. just got a conformation email that they'd taken DOUBLE the price listed on the site! WTF?! WAY to kick me while I'm down @$$holes
Strongly worded email sent 

Was the site in the UK? If so, you start making loud remarks about their fraudulent behaviour. This is the sort of thing the Distance Selling Regulations cover.

USA unfortunately. I got an email saying due to the exchange rate prices may differ. I'd like to know when the pound was twice the dollar last! Not so much that but I changed the sites currency to gbp to get a gauge on actual cost plus shipping. The shipping rate stayed the same, frame.. not so much  I'll give them to the end of the day to make amends or imagonna cancel the order!
