Online Shopping #Part-1
erm....online shopping can be evil. Once you start....you cannot stop.
I bought my two coach handbags online....
That was my first online purchase.[edited: oh no i forgot...my first was my juicy bag....then the 2 coach....kekee...from the same seller]
Subsequently i bought some clothes online....
and then I go and order prescribed glasses....
the most recent must be my strawberrynet virgin buy...
On Saturday, I received two parcels!!!! It totally made my day....I was overjoyed for I was totally totally satisfied with my purchase.
First was my prescribe glasses from zennioptical.com
Seriously i was pretty apprehensive because I couldn't believe i can purchase my glasses online.
I've read about zennioptical from a few blogs. I'm sure it was sponsored post but the idea of being able to order glasses online..CHEAP totally appealed to me. So i checked out the site....and figured i'd give it a try...since it is soooo cheap!! USD 8 only ma......
So you have to choose the type of glasses you want. I chose a maroon ahbeng glasses and a light clear blue one. (see picture)
You have to know what is your exact eye power. And you also need to know what is your pupilary distance which is the distance between both your pupils. Thats about all information you need. Then you can choose several types of lenses, better types will require ad-on $$ such as tinted glass, UV coated lens etc...
Oh and you need a credit card lah, they don't accept paypal. Which is such a pity because i'd prefer to use paypal than my credit card.
So both my glasses came to about USD 16 + USD 9 for shipping. Total damage done USD 25.
Approximately RM80 for 2 freaking glasses!!!! with prescribed lens with power. Awesome!!!!!
Plus it is sent to your home!! Man..........i was so apprehensive but when i received them, i was pretty satisfied.
Though you can clearly see the quality of the glasses are somehow like all Cina-made products....not so excellent. But.........some of my plastic glasses i made at the local optical shops are also about the same quality loh...and it costs approx RM200??? each?!!
I'm very happy with my purchase. I plan to use them as my "home" glasses.... not for going out. teehee..... But, i might just order some more glasses....so i can have fashion glasses! Since it has become affordable to interchange glasses now.
So you hear it from me. First hand buyer. And satisfied! :o)
(please don't compare with glasses you buy from optical shops that costs a thousand bucks la ya....penny for penny i'd say...cool enough for me because I have a habit of changing my glasses often, i cannot stick to one for more than 1 year)

Dang, the glasses look great. Well, for the price lah :) I actually checked out the store to get myself a pair, but then I didn't have the pupil distance info with me, so I guess I can only do it another time.
Btw, you just got tagged :)
"online shopping can be evil. Once you start....you cannot stop."
I totally second you on this one. Im currently crazy about online shopping. Such convenience at my fingertips.
The only thing stopping me now is my empty bank account. LOL!
desi: wow...desi...you are still around ya...i thought you bought your island oledi and disappeared!! :) organizing another meeting ah...
tine: hehee....i delayed my purchase because i didn't know my papillary distance too! until i asked my regular optic shop about it. erm...but hor, the blue one doesnt look nice on me leh....its hard to gage if the glasses look nice on u. Best to try out some from optical shops n know which type suits you before you choose the design.
iced nyior: aiyoyo...yala online shopping very evil! i try not to browse around so much for fear of more accidental purchases. But definitely im gonna purchase more cosmetics stuffs from strawberrynet. They are so cheap. :)
spending your hard earned money from your paid posts I can see!
