Returns and Refunds
Please
read carefully before buying or before sending back. In general all sales are
final. According your request we will return&refund up to 2 items poer
customer. You may return item/-s within 7 days after arrival at your door.
Refund amount per item is selling price minus US$ 3.95 return & refund fee
per item. There is no refund of shipping & handling cost.
You
might wonder why we have a return&refund policy like this. Let us kindly
explain it to you. On our experience our customers might just buy 5 or 10
eyewear items on one order. When they receive the items, they realize that most
of the eyewear items do not fit them and they want to return them. Is it really
worth to send items half round the world just to realize that they don't fit and
that they need to be returned? No. Therefore we kindly ask you first to
understand eyewear measurements - we provide all possible measurements in item
description. If you can't do that on your own, please ask your optician to
support you in this. Then make your order and we are sure, it will work
perfectly.
We
are preparing a page that will provide you with information how to find out your
personal frame sizes. Please allow us to publish that page by end of November,
2006 at latest.
Please send item/-s back with registered mail that you can be sure it will
arrive at our mailbox. Otherwise you have to take the risk if the item does not
arrive at our mailbox. This will ensure you to get your refund. Refund will be
done via Paypal or via Worldpay after item arrived at our mailbox.
Please
contact us via email with reference to invoice number and referring product
number to receive your personal RETURN&REFUND NUMBER. Please reuse original
shipping box & wrapping and add your personal RETURN&REFUND NUMBER when
you send item back. Please note: Each person may use return & refund policy
for two items at maximum. All sales on further items are final.

We do not provide any warranties nor spare part
deliveries for the reason, that we are selling mainly display or stock eyewear (might

That are items of high quality out of former collections of different labels and
makes, might be out of sample collections and/or from stock. They might have
been discountinued by applicable manufactureres. That is also the reason why we
are able to offer those products at prices that low. In case you need to get
spare parts just in case you would need them anytime, please make sure that you
order a product that has a minium on stock "2 pieces" and order
"2 pieces" so you will have your spare part included as you might need
it in future. The products sold might not apply to current industry standards
