Geeze...here comes the fly in the ountment. You are all probably right but for us, we haven't had any problems with Lenscrafters. Perhaps this store just retains people better or has a better manager or something, but we have used them for years without problems.   Karen and I both require major correction. I can see the point however and you all make sense.

What they do have is a great guarantee! Michael now wears glasses and does a pretty good job of caring for them, but they do require adjustment as any active 10 year old's might. In my case, I know ALL about the guarantee! In one year they replaced 4 pair for me!!! Then because of the extension, two additional pair. At the time the replacement was $35 except in the first two cases where it was free. In other words, 6 pair replaced for $210.00.

This begs the question "Why?" doesn't it? One of my Weimaraners, when young, would aggressively do a "Search and Destroy" on my glasses. I hid them when I took them off, but all I had to do was be the least bit careless and he mangled them. What makes this sorta' funny is that he NEVER has been a chewer! Oh he likes bones and ears and all, but not too much. Weims are very "soft-mouthed" dogs and his first favorite stuffed toy lasted 3 years and his next is still going strong at 5 years! He loves to get one of my T-shirts and carry around or some other piece of clothing belonging to one of the family. He has NEVER put the first hole in any of these things......but for awhile, my glasses were some kind of target.

The people at Lenscrafters were always just fine. They got to know me there for awhile. The first couple of times, when they asked what had happened, I put on a stern, accusatory, face and said, "These glasses don't stand up to the environmental conditions at my house."
