So I dropped one of my pairs of Ray Ban sunglasses the other day. Apparently they hit the floor just right and cracked the left lens. I lost proof of purchase a while ago so the 2 year warranty does not apply until I can get to a Sunglasses Hut to check my time of purchase. I processed a request with Ray Ban to replace the lenses. The quote to replace the lenses was literally $20 less than a new pair of glasses. WTF Ray Ban.

Found that out with a pair of Costas. All the cost is in the lenses. Bought a set of off brand lenses and they were complete shit. I've been buying Huk sunglasses off Amazon since. $40 and I like them just as much as any of my Costas or Maui Jims.

Same, I just bought another paid of Costas since my last pair lasted almost 10 years of daily hard use.

Costa's repair/replace warranty has gone to shit since Luxxotica bought them.

The engineers created their own company and modeled it on what Costa used to be. Bajio is the new company

My issue is my personal preference is metal frames over plastic / composite frames. So few nice good frames now.
