Why is it always that my good sunglasses break or get lost. I have a real "povo" pair which are indestructable and unloseable.

Also why is it when Hev loses her good pair, goes out and buys some more she always finds the good pair again

bondipom is an unknown quantity at this point

6months so far on my $295 Nikes that I got for free. The Mrs is amazed I haven't lost or broken them. The things are made out of that bendy metal. They are polarised and the difference to servo sunnies is something else.

In my case, sunnies od $250 + seem magnetically atracted to hard surfaces. I managed to disprove the unbreakable theory twice since being here.

Good excuse for new sunnies though!

Same sunnies are usually $60 in the US or Canada, stock up if heading that way, saves a fortune. Watches too, good ones, massive savings, compared to prices in OZ. Husband got one for $125 exact same in OZ $460, worth bringing in as long as warranty will be valid.

I've been wondering the same.
My dragons have lasted for 2+ years in the UK. Within 6 weeks of arriving the frames are cracking. I've been considering the jack duckworth look.

I know your eyes are important and all that but I could not spend $250+ on a pair of sunnies. I would be to scared to wear them. They would either be lost or broke within a week.

Ray Ban polarised, best I've ever had. When they got broke an optician in Mandurah sent off to Ray Ban for replacement lenses. Total cost 25 bucks

I know they are pricey, but hell I'm a poser. Truthfully, I had my eyese cut and shut (lasik) 2 years and really bright light gets me so I buy the best I can.
