Default Why I love costa del mar

I own 3 pair of costas & just bought Lauren a pair. I bought my first pair may 2006, silver fathoms with 400 blue mirror .
I noticed the lens was fading and the coating was peeling off a few weeks ago. So I went to a local costa dealer, showed them and they said that's covered under warranty. Just send em back. So the dealer sent em bk 12$ shipping. Then costa calls me and offers to give me a new pair for 50$...... Yea, replace my old ones for 50$!!
Done deal!!
I told then my man o wars had an issue with the rubber on the ear pieces. So they sent me a new set.... Free.
First class service and first class quality.
That's y I only wear costas!!

Lens or frame? Place on Nelson can do the lens and frame should be covered under warrenty. How did you break them, they have been indestructable for me.

Bet you can getem fixed for less than 4 bills. Make up a true life story about how your Costa's saved your life from a Rogue Tree and see if that works with the company.

I am on my second pair the first pair I sent off because the frames started peeling it cost me $15 plus shipping for a new set of frames. I tell everyone I know they are the best glasses on the market by far.

I hate when I screw up while I'm trying to show off....

In my younger days a bunch of us were showing off in front of the girls and jumping the bon fire.....As I was heading in for my 3rd or 4th jump I stepped in a little hole in the pasture and went through the fire like a wrecking ball on a crane in New York City....I completely knocked the bon fire out, total darkness and myself jumping up shaking the coals from my coat and pants......lol....Needless to say, once we got the bonfire ignited again (which is another story trying to gather smoldering logs) I was not allowed near it.....

I feel your pain Sul...
