What's wrong with them apart from the buckles not being square ? ( and dont say do a search) Rob

[AndyC]

Well the nose bridge is not symetric, the color on the glass is wrong and the band are wrong for example.

This pair is a common copy from czech republic

Agree..

... plus, the frame is smaller than originals, the curves of the lenses are wrong and won't fit a original frame, the "close, but no cigar"screws of the nose bridge are sticking out, the hinges seem to be made as one part and made of the wrong metal.
the container has issues as well..

Bit of a game like, find the 15 errors ..

Robb, they probably made a mould by using a original pair, when you pour in hot plastic it'll shrink a bit when cooling down, there the problem starts, because the hinges and strap are copied 1:1 ..
Not too much of a problem for the strap in this case, although it has the wrong weaving, but the hinges are too wide for the frame, so when you start tighten the screws the hinges will fold towards the frame to get a tight fit..., more like a triangle, instead of a rectangle..
In worst case the screws are sticking out quite a bit ( they should not or hardly), they actually have the right size, but the frame is too small.

Overall, for the not knowing, this pair isn't too bad, hence the biddings ..
