fusillade762: What about Mozzer's line of kitty headwear?

GibbyTheMole: I have a pair of authentic Ray-Bans... Bought 'em for a dime at a Goodwill. Only difference between those and dollar store sunglasses is the words "Ray-Ban" and "Bausch & Lomb". Meh.

a friend gave me a pair of ray bans wayfarers. my wife bought a pair of knock-off wayfarers at a target for less than $10. I examined the two and to the naked eye, the proportions are nearly identical.

But, there are three significant differences. (1) mine say ray bans on them, (2) the color is slightly different, and (3) mine feel a little sturdier.

/ ultimately, there is absolutely no reason to buy expensive sunglasses. the $10 pair, although less durable, are more cost effective because they can be replaced 15 times for the same price
// although, for people getting prescriptions in their sunglasses, maybe the sturdier frame is worth it.

If you pay for expensive sunglasses you are also more likely to care better for them. I bought a pair of Oakleys over 5 years ago and still have them, yet my wife goes through at least 5 cheap pairs every year because she breaks or misplaces them.

very true. you want to know the most important part in the care that I provide for my fancy sunglasses?

I don't allow my wife to have them.

/ that was #1 the weirdest thing about getting married. all my valued possessions would mysteriously go missing or break
// although, I say married, we lived together first, so that was where I noticed it. It just reached a whole new pitch once we were married. spouses are kind of like children: if you like your things, don't let your spouse touch them.
/// spouses. I include myself, I've broken or thrown away precious stuff of hers.
