Some of the plastic frames might have tiny bits of chipping paint on them, but otherwise they seem just fine. As far as I can tell, the downside of Zenni is that their customer service can leave much to be desired, not in the accuracy of their product. Again, though, your mileage may vary. Check out <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/glassyeyes/web?hl=en" rel="nofollow">the forums</a> at Glassy Eyes for a big ol' repository of reviews.

I'm not terribly attractive - glasses are the least of my problems in the appearance department - and saving $250+ seems a bit too good to be true.

Again, that's what I get such a kick out of: their shipping (even to Canada) is reasonable, and the glasses are so cheap that you're not risking much. My only regret thus far is that I haven't had as many opportunities to wear my new frames (because I don't like wearing glasses on gym days / bike days / bright and sunny days that might lead to facial sweat, which is most of them). Life, she is so hard! Lisa, those are kind of awesome.
