Haven't had any problem with any I have got.

Actually, I had fair bit of problems with those generic ones on ebay. Couple
of them I bought was far worse than the dying battery. When I whinged about
it, they send a replacement, and that was the same.
I think you need some luck, not to end up with crappy cloned batteries.

I didn’t get them off ebay.

Nope, just enough of a clue to check the feedback if you use ebay.

All the ones I have got have been just as good as the original.

That's good one. I sometime tend to ignore it for cheap buys.

Mine came from Danyang (jiangsu)


Only cost me $10 for Toll, full tracking 5 days including a weekend.
Mine were from a local supplier, on ebay. There are plenty of them on ebay.

I can't see even a single supplier of PRESCRIPTION glasses on ebay
currently.

The only ones there are only supply the frames, not the lenses.

he is probably talking about reading glasses which you can get from two
dollar shops without bothering with ebay.

Yeah, very likely.


True.
http://www.ausspecs.com.au/
They do both and so far good quality
I suspect your "optometrist" gets them from same place at 100 times
the cost
Canceled my payment to my private fund for specs and save $400 a year
The specs I have from Ausspecs reading I bought must be 3 years ago
They are tough

That's considerably more expensive than

I doubt it, the frames are quite different.

I never had that and don't have health insurance either.

I know that the last chinese lot I got was a little more than that ago
because I know I got them just after the last eye test and that was
just more than 3 years ago.
They are tough

I'm not hard on glasses. I kept relensing the OPSMs
that I used to get before I changed over to the dirt
cheap chinese glasses and those must have lasted
at least 35 years fine. Metal frame tho.

Still have them, cant get the nose bridges for them anymore.

You just have to work for the right people, my employer pays my health
fund and they pay for my specs, proper ones, not el cheapo Chinese ones.

I [aiad over $500 for specs from here
http://www.eyecareplus.com.au/campbelltown/index.htm
I had to wait over a week to get them
After a week a lens fell out they charged me $50 to replace it
CRAP I deduced
Thats when I tried Ausspecs and the whole set cost me $40
Delivered in a week to my letter box (from Hong Kong)

Pity its such shit 'work'
my employer pays my health fund and they pay for my specs, proper ones,
not el cheapo Chinese ones.

Not interested in that shit 'work' just to get stupid
ripoff glasses which don't work anything like as well
as the chinese ones. Mate of mine was stupid enough
to end up paying most of a $1K by the time they
actually ended up with something useable and
they were steaming turds compared with mine.

Where does he think the "proper ones" get their frames from?

One company I worked at does this because those with glasses need them
with "splash" shields working with chemicals.
But yes looked low quality to me also

ROFL, still willing to jump in blind and look stupid. You never learn do
you? Still making the same stupid mistakes that you did in 1992.

I've paid nothing for my last 4 pairs and no complaints with any of
them. They're all reading glasses, a pair with transition lenses for use
out doors, and I can keep a pair in the office, the bedroom and the car too.

I'm not interested in tatting around garage sales for crap to flog on
Ebay, I've got far more interesting and rewarding stuff to do.
