I'm not absolutely sure about this, but I think the online discount eyeglass folks may keep their costs down by buying up 'odd lots' and discontinued eyeglass frames. This can make getting the frames you want a catch-if-catch-can scenario. I had this happen with my last order from EyeBuyDirect. I was notified the frames I wanted were no longer available and had to select a second choice. Today I just checked and the CAPRI frame is back but my second choice BLAZE is not there.
