bonobo Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Oakely will replace defective glasses. You just have to get them to them and explain what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good pair of sun glasses is a good thing no matter what they cost. I remember reading about Rayban taking a company to court for making copies. It turned out that the copies had better UV protection than the originals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave111223 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 (edited) Anyone else confused by the OPs post? Are you saying that you actually purchased a real pair of "Oakley" sunglasses (and you just suck are spelling)? Or you purchased a fake pair which are called "Oackly" and you are actually considering getting your fake pair of sunglasses repaired??

As I don't want to go blind in 10 years I never buy cheapo street sunglasses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kunash Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 (and you just suck are spelling)? I think you will find it is 'at spelling', and not 'are spelling' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onnut Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 They are real Oackelys, I just suck at spelling like most on TV! so I can just walk in and get them fixed? Cool. Thanks for the non <deleted> replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanForbes Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 OK, ok, ok....I cant take it anymore. Oakley. Yah beat me to it. I doubt if you would EVER get much satisfaction out of a glasses called: Oackley, Okely, Oarkly, Oky, or Oaky-doaky. You can buy all sorts of knock-offs everywhere for about 100 baht. When they are scratched you toss them away and buy a new pair. I've got a whole bag full that I give to my grand daughter to play with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
