Spot, you are right about that (price). Also, since that French outfit bought out Ray-Ban and several other high-end sunglass lines, quality has suffered and c/s is terrible. $90 just to send a pair in. If you live near a military base, have, or have a friend with exchange priviliges, they are a great place to get good aviators. I have a friend in the 1/60th spec. ops. aviation at Hunter AAF in Savannah and can usually get 2 or 3 pair for what Ray-Bans had been costing.
