Fashion Metal Sunglass with Spring Hinge - 5715

These glasses arrived quickly in good condition. I was concerned that these glasses would be junk because of how cheap they are but i've been wearing the black/smoke for about a month now and I love em. If your expecting something for nothing you may be disappointed with the quality but i am glad I bought em and will buy another pair in the future for a spare.So if you want good affordable sunglasses I believe you will be happy and if your not atleast your not out a lot of money.If you like the look its worth trying.

POLARIZED Sunglasses P79 Super Light Sport Frame for Active Lifestyle

I took a chance buying these glasses, since the last time didn't work out too well, and I am completely satisfied with them. They are extremely light, and have the exact frame shape I was looking for since I dropped my previous pair down cement stairs. I ordered the red pair, and they are a bit more bright than in the picture, but they look excellent. The hinges are quite sturdy, and the only part I am the tiny bit worried about is the rubber ends of the arms (They seem a bit flimsy), but I believe that worry is unwarranted.

For the price, they seem to be very good quality, and I will buy another pair if these follow the same fate as my previous ones.

The Original Aviator - Full Mirror Lens 2-Pack - 1 Black/Mirror, 1 Silver/Mirror

Both pair of cheap glasses arrived bent, one pair were too bent to use, the second pair were slightly bent but usable. For this cheap price, we did not expect high quality glasses, and we got what we expected, they were cheap quality but would have been sufficient, had they not been bent.
We sent many emails to the seller, the seller NEVER, NOT ONCE, responded to our emails.

I gave a two star instead of a one star for the following reasons: Cheap price equals low risk, if the glasses are wearable, it is worth the price (one pair of ours was only slightly bent and wearable--since the price was so low, the one pair was worth it)--but it was disappointing that the second pair was unwearable, and that the seller did not deem it worth their time to answer an email.

X Loop P5 Polarized Sports Frame Sunglasses for Active Lifestyles

 Earpiece Lottery = You'll get the ugly color
I purchased the "Royal" with the disclaimer: earpiece color may vary... I got white. The white is not terrible, but it definitely doesn't look as good as the black does in the picture. I'm curious if anyone got black. They came in a clear plastic bag, so I don't see why they can't just have multiple items, unless.... nobody wants white, and they have to find a way to trick you into buying them.

Active Sport Grip = Uncomfortable
The pair I have are pretty tight on my head. Switching back to my old scratched up sunglasses is a tremendous relief. I believe that they made them this way to support "active" use when the pressure would keep them on your face.

Affordable = Cheap Materials
The plastic seems more rigid (maybe brittle/cheap) than my other shades, but seems to be holding up alright. The lenses are pretty standard for this price of shades, they do the trick. Mine came strongly mirrored blue, not very obvious in the picture on the site. The shape of these glasses didn't feel perfectly symmetrical, but with a little tweaking seemed to be alright. They don't fold up very small, and it feels like the folding might have been what tweaked them in the first place.

Conclusion...
Another edition of "You get what you pay for." here. These sunglasses are better quality than those cheap ones you see at street vendors, but they don't compete with a quality pair.
