Don't I know you from somewhere? They'll let anyone in here :) I'm zero for one with Zenni. Ordered some titanium frames from them and they took forever to arrive, this was a while back where I guess they were having issues with customs. Wore them as a "dirty work" pair of glasses for a couple months and one of the nosepieces fell off. Found that the screw that holds them in is an odd thread that one cannot find in a typical eyeglass repair kit, so they're now useless :( I should probably order another pair anyway though as that means that now I have only one pair of glasses, plus the ones from Zenni that now sit cockeyed on my face and try to rub a hole in my nose, so they theoretically *could* be used in an emergency... On the upside, the glasses were decent enough while they lasted, although they were a little large for my face (but now I know what size is "too big" so I'll just get something smaller.) I had to bend the crap out of the temples and the little arms that hold the nosepieces to get them to fit - they showed up bent at crazy angles. I figured that would be the likely failure of the glasses - in fact I expected to break them before I got them to fit, they were that far out - but they handled some abusive adjustment just fine. nate -- Check us out at the oft-updated http://glassyeyes.blogspot.com!
