I was once again shopping for another pair of "Shades" . I have had an excellent business experience with "Vintage Sunglass.com" You can purchase an old (new)stock pair for almost the price of new "stuff" I will always choose the "OLD'' style. BUT !!!!! I ran across DANGER'S Style for sale ? Playboy 4608 Nice !!!

Just gave a flawless pair of Serengeti glasses to my brother, I can't see without the no line bifocals. However, Randall, if you go to the real lenscrafters and not America's best, you can get any cool frames in prescription you want, all you need is coin.

My heart broke when I broke my old pair….
I keep trying to step out with others, but something ALWAYS happens….
Now I'm rockin' with Wal Mart specials. They don't look too bad…you just have to go fast enough that no one REALLY sees them!

I had a pair of Serengetti's for a really long time until they got mangled (around 20 years). I replaced them with Ray Bans with composite lenses. Nice and light and looked cool. However, they didn't block enough light and scratched really easily. Recently replaced them with Oakleys. Nice lenses and good eyer coverage, but I hated the bulky plastic frames. I left them in an airplane that went into maintenance, and surprise, surprise, they disappeared.
I am going back to Serengetti's.
I can't find anybody that had a good selection of frames. Most of them are too small for my face. Do you know if Costco will order specific models? I need non-polarized and our Costco only has polarized.

Costco doesn't do special orders on sunglasses thats why I couldn't get them prescribed. They carry specific models for every branch, which is why they don't have them advertised on their web page. Some Costcos don't even have an optics department. So ya all I can say is go in person and find out. Last time I checked my Costco only had 3 Serengetti models to choose from and that was a while back. Hope this helps.

Maui Jim for casual wear, Serengiti if Its cloudy as the lens are lighter, but I like my Persols for long drives, with the brown lens.
