Easy peasy
February 10, 2020

Item was ordered from website easily. I marked that I wanted shipment updates. Every step of the way I knew where I stood as far as processing and shipping my order. Got here promptly. Would do business with them again if need be.

Thank you for everything. I really expected something to go wrong because of the reviews and see how cheap these were I expected them to be used or a knock off. But you proved me wrong! Everything went smoothly, shipping was fast, and I love my sunglasses! Thank you for everything!

Due to all the negative reviews I was nervous about receiving my order. I did receive it but I'm skeptical not sure if they are authentic Versace glasses. Save your money folks!

I saw a pair of glasses I had been looking at in my doctor's office but, couldn't justify the cost. I found them on this website for 1/3rd the price. Since I never used this website before, I decided to check out the many reviews. The first thing that caught my eye was a warning from a search engine saying their were multiple positive reviews coming from a single IP address signifying someone was trying to elevate the overall business rating. The second warning was the multitude of consistent complaints about lack of shipments when promised, charges made without shipments and wrong orders received. I can expect a couple of cranky customers but, there were too many people with the same problems. Thanks you to everyone who took the time to post your reviews. You saved me the $ and headaches dealing with this scammer!

I suggest always using PayPal with a website or company you are unsure with. It provides extra security and insurance on your order. The reviews on this company scared me but, I didn't read them till after I order. So I filed a dispute through PayPal basically saying, "if they are scamming people I need my money back." Designer Optics contacted me right away through PayPal and sent me my order within 2-3 business days as promised. Good customer service, Great Product

ALERT!
January 12, 2020

ALERT!
Beware of their attractive prices which could ultimately cost you such A LOT!
Believe the so many negative comments, on Yelp for example. https://www.yelp.com/biz/designer-optics-brooklyn-6
In addition, the first page of Yelp requires you to read an important WARNING about Designer Optics reviews: "SUSPICIOUS review activity. We have noticed suspicious verification activity for this company, which means that a number of positive reviews come from the same IP address or from users that we have identified as possible participants in a circle of misleading reviews. "!
I had a very unpleasant experience with Designer optics.
The health of our eyes deserves much more attention!

Flawless service
January 12, 2020

II hesitated to order from this company because of negative reviews, but I had two flawless transactions, and my frames cost less than half of what they would have been locally. My experience with them was excellent.
Both times I ordered I checked by phone to make sure the frames were in stock. I called during their listed open hours; the phone rep was personable and friendly. After I placed my order I got periodic email updates and tracking information, and my frames arrived exactly as predicted.
