Read my other posts in this thread. I've gotten six pairs in the past two years, total cost of ~$160.

$8
$19
$19
$32
$32
$52

The $52 glasses were my first ones. I wouldn't spend that much again.

The brick and mortar glasses business in Canada is one of the biggest price-fixing scams out there. $500 for something that costs them $15. I suppose once upon a time they cost more to make than today due to manufacturing advances, but still.

This is one of the few times when something that seems "too good to be true" is actually true.
