We are living in a network world. But maybe I was the last person to realize that reality for I used to be quite out of that world. From what I understood, that’s all fake and visional stuff there - people from different corners of the world just telling lies to each other through an invisible line. If you get online, you will get fooled. But one buying-glasses-online experience changed my mind up and down.
I was then suffering from poor eyesight and my eyes were getting worse and worse because of not using them properly. I would have to change my eyeglasses from time to time just to make sure that they would allow me to see clearly what was happening around me. Well, I would say, that’s a real big cost. The local optical stores charged me too much.
In order to save money from my budget for my clothes, I decided to buy my prescription glasses online. I got online to look for a pair of prescription glasses. I browsed website after website until I finally got something that caught my eyes on the www.cheapprescriptionglasses.net. It’s a rimless pair with the color of dark blue, my favorite type and color. So I clicked on the picture and I got an amplificatory picture and a detailed description about the product. The material and the size of the frame, the thickness of the lenses, and the price, all are listed clearly for my reference.
I was quite satisfied with the glasses but a little worried about the price. Was it too high? On the contrary, they were really cheap. The pair I picked up only cost $56.00(including the shipping and handling fees), but to the best of my recollection, a pair of glasses of such kind cost at least $100.00 in an optical shop.
“Why are they selling glasses at such a low price? Dose cheap means inferiority in quality?” I wondered. So I chatted with one of the retailers and expressed my puzzle. They told me that they owned their own lab and didn’t need to pay rent, electricity or other expenses so they could provide all kinds of glasses, such as prescription glasses, bifocal glasses, fashion glasses, kid’s glasses and so on at a relatively cheap price. Well, they got me. So I decided to make the order. While making the order, I was not quite clear on the process and they told me how to sign in, how to fill in the form, and how to pay. Step by step, all patiently and exactly.
Five days later, I got my prescription glasses delivered right to my home. I tried them on and they looked exactly the same with the picture on screen, and were quite comfortable. This is really a fabulous experience of buying glasses online.
