Ebay no longer allows customers or sellers to choose whether to purchase or offer insurance on a per item/ per sale basis. Insurance is now completely up to the seller to provide if they wish. Because only a small minority of our customers use insurance, and because the cost of adding it to every sale is substantial, we have decided to include insurance for International shipments, but not for domestic. So we can no longer offer you the domestic option of insuring your package. Our customers have indicated that they would prefer this to the higher shipping rates we would have to charge to provide it on every package. We will still provide Delivery Confirmation on all domestic packages.

If you are returning an item for fit, please try having it adjusted locally by an optician before returning it. Most eyewear requires adjustment to fit correctly.
About Us
WHAT WE SELL The eyewear we offer for sale on Ebay is either restored or is new unsold stock. We take pride in the work we do in the preservation of old eyeglasses. We use our thirty-five years of experience to inspect every aspect of every frame - new or not.
CIRCULATED FRAMES The majority of the circulated frames we get have defects beyond repair and are rejected. The rest are taken apart, cleaned, sterilized, polished, and trued. They are then reassembled, using new screws, nose pads, temple covers and other parts as necessary. Finally, the frame is given a final cleaning and adjustment. By the time we finish restoring a frame, it is as good as it can be.
"NEW OLD STOCK" Even frames that have never been out of their original package can change over time. Pressure from other frames in the box and changes in temperature and humidity can cause shape changes, throwing the frame out of adjustment. Metal parts such as hinges can tarnish and become stiff. If a plastic frame has been stored for many decades, the plastic may dehydrate and contract or, in extreme cases, begin to deteriorate (and smell like vinegar). So even with "New Old Stock", we careful inspect each frame and make sure it is solid and in original factory adjustment.
GUARANTEE ALL OF THE ABOVE STEPS ALLOW US TO GUARANTEE THE USABILITY OF 99%+ OF THE FRAMES WE SELL. EVERYTHING WE DO IS GEARED TOWARD RETURNING CLASSIC, ANTIQUE, AND VINTAGE EYEWEAR TO ORIGINAL CONDITION AND DURABILITY.
STAGE & FILM IN THE PAST YEAR,WE HAVE BEEN SELECTED BY MANY PRODUCTION COMPANIES TO PROVIDE EYEWEAR FOR FILM, TELEVISION, AND SPECIAL EVENTS.
We have recently provided eyewear and/or lenses for: HBO PBS THE OREGON SHAKESPEARE FESTIVAL UNIVERSITY OF HOUSTON SCHOOL OF OPTOMETRY THE SHAKESPEARE COMPANY AT HARMON CENTER FOR THE ARTS (DC) AND SEVERAL TV COMMERCIALS.
If you have a need for guaranteed authentic period pieces or specialty anti-reflective lenses for studio use, we are a one-stop shop, and can frequently get work out the door quicker-than-sooner.
