Hi All
I have a pair of Minute 1.0, these are all scratched and they will become my first project pair... When I get a new pair of Oakley's (can't decide on a pair yet).
I did buy a pair of replacement lenses from a seller on Ebay, a very good seller I must say, ordered on the Thursday they arrived on the Friday, I paid £20.00. They were advertised as meeting all safety requirements with regards UV protection.
I opened them up and popped them in, the right hand lens fitted a treat, these lenses were alot thinner than the original lenses, however, the left was loose and fell out. I contacted the seller who sent another set out that arrived the next day, very apologetic... These were exactly the same, I am now sending them back and getting a refund. Seller has been great though.
I had been searching lots to find UK based lens suppliers. I came across the forum sponsor's, I have found lenses in the US for about $10 from one of the sponsors sites, will these be ok as they are sponsor's of this forum, I not sure about duty/shipping etc. Any UK members on here that can recommend a lens seller.
I have emailed Oakley as well asking for advice about replacement lenses, this was mainly out of curiosity, just wondering what they say about glasses that are no longer produced. I didn't really want to pay £50+ to have some lenses cut now, not until I decide on what colour I will paint them and lens colour.
Thanks in advance.
