Worst
July 13, 2016

I wait more than 20 days and send a mail. And finally they said they have delay. If i didn't send the mail than they won't send the mail to inform. And the website said its gonna take less than 14days. So wrong information. Don't believe this site.

Dear Heeyoung,

We're so sorry for the delays in your order. The specific prescription chose for your contact lenses was unfortunately not in stock and are awaiting more supply from the manufacturer.

I can see our support team are already in touch to help resolve your concerns but feel free to let us know if there is anything else we can dot to assist.

Regards,
Ben

I recently used the UK Site for this website.
I ordered a pair of Ray Ban rare prints special series that I had seen elsewhere for £140 but this website were doing for less than £100.
I must say I was reluctant and after speaking to customer service I was even more reluctant, had I read some of these reviews before hand I definitely wouldn't have used them, but thankfully I did go ahead.
I must say they took longer than expected to arrive but when they did arrive I was over the moon with them. They look genuine to me and my friends and I have recommended this site to my friends.
I will definitely use them again, am planning to order again next pay day, and I hope to be completely satisfied again.

Not confident in the authenticity
August 21, 2015

Order process was straightforward, and product shipped in expected timelines... was worried when it shipped from Hong Kong, the land of counterfeit goods. Glasses looked real enough, the two things that didn't were the soft case which is obviously not authentic - I have a real one and side by side you can tell the one from China is a cheap knockoff and the box was a slightly whitewashed printed version of the real deal. I wouldn't buy from smartbuyglasses again.

Dear Zac, we guarantee 100% product authenticity. We understand the concerns are due to the different packaging. Unfortunately due to the seasonal changes and promotions, packaging can be quite different. I am happy to inform you that we offer 100 days return policy to ensure maximum customer satisfaction. You can always contact us if you have any questions or concerns about your glasses.

Best Regards,
Ben

As someone who does all of my shopping online and has never written a review before this experience was the WORST I have ever had. Took me 4 hours to even be able to process my payment due to their website blocking my card which had nothing to do with the available funds-their website only worked on a specific browser. Their customer service reps service reps were rude and did nothing to rectify this inconvenience. Once I finally placed my order, 3 weeks went by with no emails or updates. I called to check and they didn't even have the frames yet and informed me to get the frames could take up to 2 more weeks and to put the lenses in when they did arrive would take ANOTHER 2 weeks. This is already a total of SEVEN weeks. When I asked for them to overnight the glasses to me once they were ready TWO MONTHS down the line, they told me they don't do overnight shipping. I cancelled my order as I cannot wait two months to be able to see.

Dear Loren P.,

We are very sorry to hear of this frustrating experience.

We offer many different payment methods, including PayPal, in the unlikely event that there is a problem during checkout. I'm afraid that as the glasses you ordered was from a new collection and highly popular, there was a slight delay with the manufacturer in addition to the advertised 5-14 working days for the frames and prescription lenses

Rest assured, our Service Manager will be in touch shortly to set things right.

Regards,
Ben

It's true that smartbuyglasses is not the fastest service :), but I didn't find it to be unreliable at all. My order also wasn't 'in stock' so I had to wait a bit, but I was being informed constantly about the status of the order, which was then shipped by a courrier at no charge, and I was also offered a 10% discount on a future order. I would say that if you're not in a hurry to get your order, the excellecnt prices make the wait worthwhile. Happy police eyeglasses owner :).

Hi Tundish,
Thanks for your review!
We try hard to deliver Sunglasses, Eyeglasses, contact lenses at the best prices, and on a timely manner.
Depending on the brand/model/color, we have to work with different suppliers and it can take some time, but our customers are kept up to date by email.
Anyway, thanks again for your review!

Glasses not the color I ordered
March 19, 2015

I went along with the online photo, when it arrived it wasn't the model I ordered. If I would had wanted to change the model I would had have to pay for the shipping back to SmartBuyGlasses. The other model I ordered took more than 2 months to arrive. Other than that it was an excellent place to buy glasses

In generally i am pleased to shopping from your site.
But i got a problem because of the invoice... the amounth of the invoice was too less, so the product pause at the customs. Then i solved the problem with sending original invoice...
In conclution, i suggest you that dont write too less amounth on the invoice. Turkey Customs allows products which is cost of up to € 75... if the price pass €75, there is a tax problem..

Very slow... Very, very slow!
September 6, 2016

A delivery-time of the better part of a month, and a not very attractive price this time. This along with an exceptionel amount of spam mails after your purchase.

First time was supreme.

Last time was last time!

Scammers
March 29, 2015

I am dissapointed with your service and your product. First of all, on your website clearly it says "free shipping" which is not true at all, that Is false misleading advertisement. Second your product is a knock off brand. Verified by a professional sunglass dealer. Third I am not able to contact your company no number. I am hopeful that someone will take this report seriously and will contact me instead and will be Sble to resolve all of this issues. *******270

Great website and customer service! I don't see why anyone would complain, however shipping time did take a while but its understandable. I ordered a pair of frames, received them in about 2 weeks. I got a case, and an extra gift in with it which was some cleaning spray and a cleaning cloth and I think that's it. Unfortuneately the color of the frames didn't go with my complexion so I shipped them back for a refund in which I knew that I would have to pay a 20 percent restocking fee. They received the frames and received a credit within 3 days. I did have to pay to ship them back and pay a restocking fee but a business has to make their money somehow or they wouldn't be in business. I would buy from them again!

Why buy anywhere else?

Best prices, really fast shipping, spot on curator service... I'll be going here first before I look anywhere else in the future. Got a pair of Maui Jim's for about $70 less than Sunglass Hut. Exact same glasses. Can't beat that.
