Dog chewed a hole through the lens of my blue mirror glass costas...thinking about getting a new pair.

http://costadelmar.com/store/BVModules/ProductTemplates/Costa%20-%20Product%20Layout/Product.aspx?productid=fcd48761-4af8-4ffc-9faa-240b1c2c5d8e

If you choose blackfin and green mirror glass, it's $250.

Seem sketchy?

First of all . . . the dog needs to be taught a lesson! lol

I have the blackfin 580 green mirror tint and got them on ebay at about the same price as the listing. Really doesnt matter where you get them because costa deals directly with the customer if anything should go wrong regardless where you buy them. I saved a wad of cash and they got here fast and were in perfect condition. I would just recommend going with the seller who has a good rating.

Costa's customer service is great. I bought a pair on Ebay and had to send them in for repairs a couple of years later. it cost me $20 and they were fixed and back in my hands in about 3 weeks. Them i broke the frames. This time i took them to Academy and told them my wife just bought them a few weeks ago and i received them as a gift. Academy exchanged them , no questions asked.

I wanted to kill the dog, but it's not mine.

Thanks, Ebay it is.

Costa stands behind their products 100%.I sent a pair in for a friend. Both ear pieces were gone,lenses were in many many pieces,and the frames were trash. They sent a new pair for $70.

Think it's worth it to send em in? Assuming I can get brand new ones for $160 on eBay.
