    Glass hands down. I was up in the air on them myself, and when you compare them side by side glass wins all day long. They are definitely worth the little extra money.

    ive got both plastic and glass. the plastic lenses were given to me by work and i scratched the shit out of them day one when i bumped my head on a metal beam. ive been wearing the 580 glass lenses for 4 years now and hit them while their on my head, dropped them on concrete, gravel, sand, tile, and everything in between and i only have TINY scratch on them the frames are scratched to shit but the lenses have held up phenomenally. i woudnt buy anything but glass costas. its night and day on the quality in my eyes. i currently wear Corbina 580 greens and couldnt be happier. i work on the water offshore for 100+ days out of the year and i love them.

    30% is about as good as you can get from anything short of knowing a retailer that is giving them to you at price. thats how i used to get mine.

    Even if it was 35% you'd only save a couple dollars. 4/5 stores i tried to get in on this said no, it doesnt leave any margin room worth the effort for them. Ontop of this costa deal, i had to toss in my own personal Purchases of just under 1000$ to boost the first Gb over all $ size to have them commit to me

    I'm sure the rest of the list will chime in shortly,
    Its usually how it goes.

    Im not sure why ells they wouldn't be partaking as this is very similar to the last one. The only reason i had a slightly better deal on the last one was because they needed me to boost their sales. Now I'm not needed anymore, their service became 3rd tier.

    With this new contact we are looking at unbelievable turn around times. Just need TW group to play nice and get in on it when they say they want in on it lol

    no worries, i play on running this gb a few more days at the very least to allow all those that subbed in that want to take advantage of this deal the opportunity to get their affairs in order. There really isnt that much of a difference between this Group buy and previous ones so i don't see any reason why this won't flow and work just as well as the previous. The Best thing is, Super fast orders. If i can confirm a group buy and process it sunday night, some people can have their glasses by wednesday ( depending on location) and others around friday if on the west coast.

    im not going to set a deadline,
    If i feel that the list is big enough, ill put in the order and bump who ever is late or not in yet to the next one.
    These guys will have a much better service and WAY faster turn around so technically i could fill 2 in a week even

    For those that don't have excel yes there is some free editors online. Im sorry, i wish i had a better way of doing it but this is the only effective and efficient way of data capturing

    That's what I used and it worked fine. It's a super watered downed version of excel but simple formulas still work and you can still save the file as an excel extension.
