It's been almost a year, so I no longer have a copy of the emails. I
did consider that I'd probably be contacting someone overseas, and
felt I phrased my question simply and clearly. I asked for the height
and width of the lenses shown in the picture, and included a link.
Perhaps it wasn't understood that I meant those specific lenses.
Since O4L's were over $125.00 with shipping, and Zenni's were only
$68.85 complete with shipping, I went with Zenni. If the prices had
been $20 or less difference, I might have made the extra effort to get
the answer I was looking for.
