Hi,
I had been chatting with some members on the discussion forum prior to meeting the exchange rules about replacement custom cut lenses for my Square Wire 2.0 (spring hinge) sunglasses:
Square Wire 2.0 Aftermarket Lenses - Canada
@Chris A Hardaway - we'd spoken about the potential of you cutting some lenses, so I wanted to get in touch now I can access the exchange. I'm unsure if a post here was the best option, or if I should PM you. Let me know!
I've decided I want to go the route of replacing these lenses. Again, it's harder for me to buy donor lenses in Canada, so I think the best option is what you suggested of me mailing you the current ones, with you then buying the lenses, cutting them, installing and sending back. I suppose I could also remove the existing ones before sending - save a little on the weight for shipping costs to you.
I'm 95% sure I want to go with BIP (as opposed to DPP). The reason is that Oakley got back to me with a very generous offer on a new pair that would also allow me to keep the existing ones. I need to find some time to go downtown to the official Oakley store as I'm hoping/assuming they'll stock the full range of frames, and would at least have different types of lenses across different frames. Is that a fair assumption or can some Oakley stores have small ranges? I'm thinking I'd then lean towards something with DPP meaning I could quite happily go with BIP for the square wires and have some different lenses rather than getting the exact same ones. I'd like to go down and decide though before confirming 100% which lenses I want you to use. Perhaps I could still send them in the meantime, or does it take you a while to get the lenses anyway?
Thanks!
Graham.
