It Never Hurts to Ask
…for help.
I have two pair of Maui Jim sunglasses. I love them! The style, the fit, the lenses – everything about them. However, I didn’t love the scratches. I don’t know if it was a flaw in design or just a care issue, but both sunglasses got marred on the inner lens where the earpiece folded onto itself. So upon wearing them, I would see blurry out of the bottom corners. Well, I decided to give Maui Jim a call and describe my situation. Their custom support was extraordinary. I received return instructions, packed and shipped those babies and in less than two weeks, I had them back; completely repaired for a nominal expense. I can’t say how happy I was with their customer care. So… whenever you think you don’t have an option but to toss out a pair of damaged sunglasses, call the manufacturer. You just might be surprised!
Incidentally, I did the same thing with a set of D&G sunglasses and they are sending replacement lenses for a major scratch in one lens. $20 bucks for shipping and handling – and Lenscrafters will replace them for free. Whoo hoo!

I Can See Clearly Now
Finding a unique gift for the “hard to find a gift for” person is often a challenge. If you think outside of normal retail, you can be surprised at some of the one-of-a-kind gifts that are out there. Ferrari of Austin carries a number of items for the auto enthusiast, but that’s not the only place to find auto-centric items. The parts counter at any auto dealer will have brand related items for sale. The nice thing is, you’re giving a gift that resonates with the passion of an enthusiast.
