Sandman77 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Just stay 10 days in siem reap, today I ordered new lens, and wondering about the big price difference to Thailand , for exactly same brand essilor have also another called Osa Same specifications uv light and scratch protection on top Charon I payed a year ago around 6500 baht! In past I remember beautiful optic was cheaper! But here in Cambodia only 34 dollar for a pair! Standart lens offer for 9 dollar! For me comparing to a eu lens With a 10 time higher price the bowing of glas surface not look identical ! But many online shops offer also pairs for 60€ , and import them from Asia , if it would be a fake , it's could not sale in the eu! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Sounds like a very good price. Maybe I'll ride over to SR and have some of my old frames re-fitted. How long does it take them to do the work? Can you recommend a particular shop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David48 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 One of my few disappointments with the products and services available (when compared to cost and quality back in the West) is the countries Optical services. Cr*ap glasses at inflated prices. Maybe the dominance of one particular player who sets the price? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JesseFrank Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Maybe the dominance of one particular player who sets the price? As with so many products in this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure easy to buy online. There is a thread in the Pattaya forum where Phil Conners has posted his experience with easy buying lenses online. He's not the only one .

Sandman77 Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 One is called Angkor optic Near old market! Waiting time next day Diposit 20 dollar! Maybe u got one free when I buy 10 smile! The guarantee In Thailand Is a joke only 7 days I will ask here how long it will be Some frames looks realy ugly!
