    Thanks OP.

    I didn't really need a pair, but I ended up buying 4 anyway "just incase".

    Any details on them, or are they what you'd get in a euro shop for a euro anyway??

    No specs on them would make me wary enough, have they any uv protection? Polarized (I suspect not)?

    Not to pi55 on anyone's chips, but cheap tat sunglasses ate cheap tat sunglasses, even if they are proportedly reduced in price. Can do more harm than good at times.

    Would like to know myself about that quality, as am considering buying a few for stocking fillers. However, zooming in on the wraparound Sports type it says EN ISO 12312-1:2013 (Cat 3) which is the safe standard for proper UV protection etc. Don't know if I'd spend a week in the Alps in them, but that's not likely these days anyhow!:cool:

    The sticker on them says 100% UV protection and that they are anti glare. The brand is Newport. Also my label says they were on sale for 30 then reduced to 18 and now to 5. By touch they are a cut above what you'd get in Dealz. Wasnt expecting anything special so they are worth the fiver imo.

    Thanks OP. Possibly my fastest ever online delivery, less than 12 hours from seeing it on boards to it arriving at my door. Perfectly good sunglasses for the price, thanks for posting!

    Ordered at 7am yesterday, got confirmation email but no sign of them yet and no dispatch email.
    Did everyone get a dispatch notification?
    The sunglasses I ordered are still in stock at that link.

    If you're into that sort of thing maybe, but most of us are normal and would prefer a pair of sunglasses. :rolleyes:

    Got mine very quick also. Definitely better quality than I expected. They are also way bigger than I expected. Might not even wear them but got €5 they are excellent value.

    They are handy if you are going somewhere that you may lose them and don't care.

    If you want top quality with excellent UV protection, clarity etc... You shouldn't really be looking at €5 sunglasses in the first place.

    Delivery has tracking on the dispatch email and it says ups and a night line van driver chucked mine at the door, same company just different name
    Sending glasses in a plastic bag with no box or bubble wrap is madness

    That's strange, mine arrived in a bubble wrap envelope in a normal plastic courier bag
