ray bans

$40 at Filene's

[print*model]

I just paid full price at Nordstrom this morning getting a pair for my daughter. Her birthday is later this week and she wanted the two-tone purple/burgundy pair. They were $140.00 plus tax. Everyone at my local mall had them for the same price. I know Wayferer's are VERY popular right now and I rarely see that particular style on sale anywhere.

I got her an all white pair last year for her birthday. I got them at a eye care store in the mall. I just happened to ask if they offered any discounts and they let me use my AAA (Triple A) discount which brought them down from $140 to $115. I went there first today but they didn't have the exact pair she wanted.

I was lucky enough to find three pair of vintage Wayfarer's at a garage sale a few months back! All three from the wife of a Ray-Ban collector and they dated back to the early 70's! They were PERFECT and came complete with the cases and all. I paid $1.00 for each pair! I sold two pair on eBay (made a killing!) and let her keep the all black pair for herself.

Good luck with your search! But definitely try an eye-care store if you have AAA.

you could try just asking for a discount. i know that sounds silly, but when i was at the sunglass hut after the holidays my dad wanted a pair of clubmasters (he's worn them forever and is in his late 50's) and i wanted the cat eyes as a gift for a friend. i asked the girl if that was the best price she could do and she said she'd give me 25% off as long as i came back and bought them from her. i don't know how she did that or if she's the manager or what, but it worked for me!

I second this sighting.. This is where I bought my 1 pair of wayfarers and 1 pair of 3016 Clubmasters. They seem to always have pairs of current Raybans including popular stayles. Once of the once I bought did have a slight prescription.

Buy them online at eyesave or fast sunglasses. I made the mistake of buying ray bans from sunglass hut years ago a paid full retail price, never again! The online stores have a better selection of colors and sizes than any brick & mortar store too. Free shipping and no sales tax and priced way below retail. I've never paid more than $90 total for a pair.

^^ fastsunglass.com sells FAKE Ray Ban's (and glasses). If you pay by credit card - your card will be billed to this company:

SUNGLASS TRADER INC. - Jupiter Fla.

Well I looked up THEIR website and indeed:

http://www.sunglassestrader.com/

They sell "best quality fake sunglasses". I have an authentic pair of Ray Ban aviators and another pair purchased from www.fastsunglass.com/sunglassestrader.com - and they're TOTALLY fake. They're okay fakes, but they cost $25.00 on the FAKE website and $100.00 on the COVER website = same glasses. Dumb mistake.

never knew so many places have it...

[drechie]

which real websites sell them at discounted prices? anyone in elizabeth, NJ want to scoop up a pair for me? I can pay you via pay-pal =)

[Lola24]

I use Gooddens.com. They are like a sporting goods store that sells lots of sunglasses too, I've had very good experiences with them personally..... and their prices are very reasonable.

The sunglasses I received from fastsunglass are not fake. I own half a dozen pairs of rayban aviators & clubmaster and these match perfectly. They arrived in the proper sealed rayban/luxottica box with the correct case, booklets, serial numbers. Perhaps the company has another site but the ones I received are def. real. Sorry you got burned but I did not.

I want to add they are an authorized rayban dealer.

ah i want the 2140's as well... i have been for a bit of time but i hate spending more than $10 on a pair of sunnies. haha hopefully there will be a supersweet deal for them so i can get them.

[wis3ly]

Any recent deals on Ray Ban Aviators?

[imlvholic]

I've been window shopping for Raybans too on *bay, but just hesitant because there prices are so good to be true. Maybe they're all FAKES & you thought you got a good deal but if it's FAKE, you just got rip off big time. FAKES sell for $5 on the streets of NY.

[imlvholic]

What do you think of Polarized, is it worth it to spend extra for that? It's suppose to minimize glare.

Solstice is currently having their friends and family 25% off. Ray-Ban is not on the exclusion list. I know most branches carry Wayfarers, got a pair for my sister last year from them. Try outlets too maybe?
