AUNo integrity "I am an Australian shopper who went online towards end of November 2012. I purchased approximately $250.00 worth of product that I paid additional shipping to ensure it would arrive before Christmas with their International courier company Bongo. The expected delivery date was no later than 20/12/2012. As I didn't receive them I contacted the courier company only to be advised that the merchant (Bestbuy eyeglasses) did not send them the order for shipping. The company did not send me an email to notify me of any delays however was more than happy to take the money out of my account). I am extremely dissatisfied with the company, and they have yet to respond to my email. Do not BUY from them International buyers.. They clearly have no intention to improve their service, or have any integrity in their service."

GBI should have known better..... I ordered a pair of eyeglass frames that were shown as 'in stock' on a Monday. The next day the order went to 'fulfillment', a process that according to the site will take 1-3 days before being sent out, and my credit card was charged the full amount. On Friday of that week I was notified that the glasses were back ordered and were now scheduled to be delivered 3 weeks later. Of course the site still shows the frames as in stock (how else would they lure other unsuspecting people?). When I called to see why the frames were back ordered despite being showed as in stock I was notified that 'the supplier only stocks one pair of frames in each color and when those sell they have to order a new pair from the manufacturer. This obviously didn't answer the question, but I didn't expect a straightforward answer so I did get what I expected here. The reputable online companies that I do business with a:) show out of stock items as such, b:) don't charge the credit card the full amount until they have shipped the products, and c:) they ship the products in a timely manner consistent with what they say on their website. Buyer beware.

GBWorst customer service ever! Without going into details, I had a problem with some frames and after having them only four months, I decided to exchange them. Their "12-month" warranty is a complete farce. They pretended to send me a return shipping label a couple of times, and I finally resolved the problem by dealing directly with the manufacturer of the frames. Meanwhile, everyone I contacted at BestBuyEyeglasses.com lied to me - that seems to be their corporate policy. Save yourself a ton of hassle by buying from someone else. You may have to pay a little more, but you will be sorry if you buy from BestBuyEyeglasses.com.

AUSo-so postage but item as described with standard extras attached I'm buying from Australia. I was a bit hesitant at first to buy anything from here, but this was the only site I could find that stocked the sunglasses I wanted. (Michael Kors 'Cheshire') Price was reasonable but the price of the shipping was a lot because of them having to use a partner company (Bongo) which re-routes packages to international locations. I believe it did take one or two days longer to process the item and actually ship it off than was stated in the 'how long does it take' section of the website. Apart from this I had no issues with the item. The sunglasses were mint condition, brand new, plastic-packaged and came with the standard accessories - sunglass case and microfiber cloth bearing the brand's logo. I'm very satisfied with the item and I'm sure that it is legitimate.

GBWhat a po dunk company Ordered 2 frames. Called to ask if frames were in stock and ready to ship. I was told they were. Five days later I get an email saying both frames had been discontinued. Why was it on your site then??? Don’t waste your time.
