They may now base it on the len type, but I had priced out a pair of the Ti frames, with the 1.67 lens late last year (Dec 09') and the X- strength price was $9 - not $22.(Then the whole set was $80.64 = frame + 1.67 + A/R + X-strength). And yes, I did notice there was no additional cost for the 1.74 index, but the price difference was 39.99 for 1.67, 79.99 for 1.74. I am guessing that they increased the price due the difficultly in getting high idex's done correctly, but it was a major shock for me.
siageah - i went back and readded then frame/lens, it still came up to 74.90, so where you got your pricing, I'm not sure. I added the Ti frame I wanted w/ the 1.74 index and the price went up to 99.90 (15.95 frame, 79.00 lens, 4.95 A/R). If I could wait or wouldn't have to worry if they get the lens 100% correct (and that is always my biggest issue - i don't know why nobody can't cut them right the first time), I probably would have ordered them in the Ti frames. There might be good reasoning, but it's still a shock when you priced it once at one price, then wham - it's a good bit more now. It almost feels deciptive. -- Check us out at the oft-updated http://glassyeyes.blogspot.com! You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GlassyEyes" group.
