$400 for transitions!? i think that's the "top grade"

cos my optician told me there are several kinds, got those less than 200 and got those 400+

he advise me to get the mid-range, 200+. its original transitions and with cert.


BTW: they dont have 2.0. only 2.1

ya loh. i have to admit its comfortable when looking under bright sunlight.. but when take pictures, i look like some orbiang uncle..

was thinking of using normal lens for my oakley, then get another pair of sunglasses (NOT oakley) for driving use

look for the guy with brown hair, little moustache. i actually forgot to ask for his name after 2 visits. haha.

he's damn good. he will explain to you everything nicely and wont pressure you to get the expensive stuff so that he earn more. if he thinks its not worth the money, he will tell you straight.



got mine confirmed. oakley dictate 2.1, without transitions. haha. went for the clear lens thats practically got everything (UV400, EMI, anti static, anti fog, anti smudge blah blah blah)

total: 580

I did check out the shop tat u mentioned.. there's another optical shop on the 4th floor, which quoted me $435 for the frame inclusive of free 1.5 index lens. Service fr the lady there also superb. haha... now have to see which shop len is cheaper.

 

[mikeeeey]

I see. Yeah do some comparing

the shop i pm u, they absorb the gst oso. Rmb to ask if the price they tell u got include gst or not. Later when paying then they tell u got to add 7% to the "nett" price.

hi all... need an advise here.
went to spectacle hut whom gave me $440 for ray ban titanium eyeglass, lenses - 1.74 plus multi-coat, EMI, some coating that's good for pro-long computer usage...
my degree is 875 plus astik for both eyes.

Felt uneasy as the initial deal was supposed to be sealed at $350 but they got me upgraded the package to the above
