I was hoping to write a thread with a new deal for members, but it turns out it's not exactly as advertised.
An Oakley dealer (who I will keep nameless for fear of libel), advertised that they were giving away a free case and lens cleaning kit with Oakley Radar purchases. Sounds like a deal so I bought a pair. They arrived today, and although the Radars were boxed and came with their standard case, there was no additional case, just the lens cleaning kit. I emailed their customer services to ask where the free case was only to get a reply to say the case they arrived in was the free case. Now, I've bought from them before, and other dealers, and Radars always come with a case. I've never known a pair or brand new Radars that don't come with a case right? But no, according to customer services, and I quote "The free case that is advertised is what we send the glasses in so you should have the glasses a case and the cleaning kit."
Bulls*it, that's like a supermarket trying to sell jam by saying it comes with a free jar. I pointed this out to them, only to be told "Not all glasses do come with a case, so it has been noted that a free case is included." Not only that but in the email they got my name wrong. They didn't mispell it, they made up a new name for me, they called me Paul when my name is Jonathan and it says so at the bottom of every email I sent them.
Moral of the story, always double check a deal before buying. Cuntz.
