Need help finding glasses

    Hey guys,

    Recently bought a pair of Emporio Armani glasses in Castlebar, Mayo. I really like them and want to buy another pair just in case I break these ones.
    But I cannot find the same colour ones that I have.

    http://www.framesdirect.com/framesfp/Emporio_Armani-tcpjrf/r.html

    That is the model, but I cant find the ones with the white on the sides and silver on the front, like the black one, except with white.

    Could anyone help me find these? Like somewhere on the net, I tried a bit on google but I could'nt get the right link, kept getting these colours, not the white.

    Any help would be great,
    Thanks.

    don't get the same thing twice as a second pair!:eek:

    get something different for a completely different look. get a nice plastic frame instead. there are so many to choose from you'll find something.

    Try vision2you.co.uk they sell a lot of different brands and their service and pricing is excellent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭shortys94


    Wow they are pretty damn good prices.

    But they don't show a preview of other colours in each model, or is there?

    Have you used them before also because they're prices seem too good to be true? Are they reputable?

    I mean I was going to spend 320 euro on a pair tomorrow in Castlebar including lenses and thinning etc, but on this site the outcome is something in the region of 200 euro according to xe.com!!!! Are the quality of their lenses good?

    Would really like to know more about them, Again any experiences with the site would be helpful because the prices seem to be way too low.

    I found the frames in vision express but they were too expensive.
    I have a slightly complicated prescription and couldn't have got them with out getting high index lenses which caused the price to spiral even more.
    I sent them my prescription and a request for lens prices and some questions and I found their answers good and prices very reasonable.
    I have my glasses about 7/8 months now and they are perfect,I couldn't be happier with them.
    I got the prescription checked when I was at my last contact lens check and it was exact,though you can normally tell this by just looking through them;)
    I have noticed UK prices seem to be lower then prices here for glasses,not sure why possibly vat or some such.
    If you have any question about their stuff e-mail them and they will answer pretty promptly.

    Good luck with your purchase!
