U.K. Buyers avoid!
While the prices may look good if you're buying outside of America avoid...by the time you've added import taxes and Royal Mail handling charge (UK) then you might as well go to sunglasses hut and buy them at uk prices. I should've done my research granted but they are very clear to state free shipping all over their website but it's in the very tiny t&c's that you will find anything about shipping costs. When I contacted them about returning the item the response I got was that the import tax would be deducted as well as a further 20% restocking charge. Therefore no choice but to keep them. We are fortunate enough in the UK to be protected by distance selling laws, stick to a uk company if buying off the internet, lesson learned! *update....while I appreciate you cannot control these things you can control a 20% restocking charge. Also the title of the review is specifically aimed at those buying in the UK as the saving for me has been written off by the import and handling charges.

thank you for your purchase with our store. we are very transparent with letting people know that items will ship from the USA, we charge no shipping fee on our end for anything shipped to the UK and know that our prices are very competitive with local shops within the UK giving us an advantage with price even with a possible customs fee. we do allow a full value exchange if the item received is not to your liking and always will work to be as fair as possible to work on exchanges. In addition we do not unfortunately have control over custom fees and or if Royal mail adds charges for shipping, we do not collect anything other then the charge for the frame. Lee
