Yeah, very likely.

True.

They do both and so far good quality

I suspect your "optometrist" gets them from same place at 100 times

I doubt it, the frames are quite different.

Canceled my payment to my private fund for specs and save $400 a year

I never had that and don't have health insurance either.

You just have to work for the right people,

Pity its such shit 'work'

my employer pays my health fund and they pay for my specs, proper

Not interested in that shit 'work' just to get stupid
ripoff glasses which don't work anything like as well
as the chinese ones. Mate of mine was stupid enough
to end up paying most of a $1K by the time they
actually ended up with something useable and
they were steaming turds compared with mine.



Where does he think the "proper ones" get their frames from?
Europe actually.

ROFL, still willing to jump in blind and look stupid. You never learn do
you? Still making the same stupid mistakes that you did in 1992.

I've paid nothing for my last 4 pairs and no complaints with any of them.
They're all reading glasses, a pair with transition lenses for use out
doors, and I can keep a pair in the office, the bedroom and the car too.
Pity about the shit 'work' you had to do to get those free.

Poor old roddles obviously never had a job that he enjoyed, then got
flushed from Canberra and had to become a geriatric Steptoe tatting
round garage sales for junk to sell on ebay.

I was glad to see that the el cheapo glasses that were all that you
could afford were so good, so much better than proper bought ones.

The tracking says it should show up today.

And it did. They are hopeless tho, the vertical legs of the
saddle bridge don’t even contact the metal frame at all.
The only connection with the metal frame is at the top,
the horizontal part of the bridge. That’s not going to
last very long with the legs in contact with the nose
grease all the time.

Their returns system is fucked too. They will give you
a 50% discount on the replacement if you don’t like
what they supplied, but you have to return the ones
you didn’t like to the US and that costs most of the
discount.

Hook line and fucking sinker.
ROFL, there is a smell of dog shit around here, its coming from your ears.

That doesn't happen with the current battery technology.

Some people haven't a distant clue about what they're doing in these

they stood in the middle of a field of horny clues, smeared their body
with clue musk and did the clue mating dance. RodBot is one of those

Same technology (LiIon), claimed higher capacity than original. Wasn't.

I just looked for vendors (on AliExpress - hundreds of battery
suppliers) with top approval ratings, making claims that were plausible.
I've had really good experiences with many other products from
AliExpress, but there's little point complaining or posting them back
when the entire order is under $20.

Perhaps you can suggest a better way to select?
Or a store you trust which has a Motorola BR50?

What matters isnt what claims are made, what matters is what feedback
there is from those who have bought what they are flogging.

I did it with something that was quite literally 1c.

Expected to just get ignored, but instead he sent
me a replacement and the replacement was perfect.

Yep, feedback from those who have bought the product.

Haven't had any need to get any of those.
