my *new* glasses broke!!!

less than 1 month

pic of the broken glasses

needless to say, I am just so pissed. :|:|:|
paid $260 for this and broke in less than a month.
when I was working in the library, books falling over my head and hit my glasses + head. then the frame of the glasses started getting loosed. now, the frame just can't stick to the lens.

question:
I have two insurance that should cover my loss. I paid with my american express gold reward card, they have a purchase protection plan. the other one is my renter insurance with Balboa. which one should I file my claim to?

before you go through insurance, go back to the store where you bought them. five months after i bought my glasses, the nosepads fell off and the store replaced the frame for free because apparantly they had a six month guarantee they didn't tell anyone about... i just went to complain =P

You get what you paid for. $260 is chump change when it comes to quality glasses.

You know, i told my wife that once...

Let me tell you... squeezing just isn't the same type of sensation....

😀

That sucks though... I just spent 250 on my new specs... luckily they're covered for 6 months by the Optician.

Meh. I've had a $350 pair of Giorgio Armani's, and the recent Dolce & Gabanna which were $329 which both broke. Those prices were just the frames. I need a polycarb lens, so thats another $120.
 
Where'd you buy it from? The last time I bought from LensCrafters, they told me that the glasses would be covered for a year if they broke for any reason... that was a few years ago, though.

I never pay more than $300 for my glasses, and they last for years. I only wear them at night, but I abuse them and fall asleep in them all the time. All of my glasses (3 pairs in 16 years) have worn out, but none of them have failed mechanically.

wtf?? Mine is 4+ years old, and still going strong after updated lenses. I prolly paid 150 at the time. I wear contacts now and I only wear it at home.
