How do you spot an ozbargainer on the beach?
Look for anyone wearing rio briefs, Galaxy Gear Watch & Levis/New Balance Sunnies
with an armful of eneloops
to recharge their phone while they burn its battery refreshing ozb.
Great deal, thanks. Just picked up a pair for running
Great bargain. Been looking for some decent/affordable sunnies for ages.
It came out to $29.99 with standard shipping. Not bad! The amazon exchange rate turned out to be slightly better than the one on Xe.
Grabbed 2 pairs, good for cycling thanks
Coming up as $7.98 shipping for me.
very good find, grabbing some for driving
I got this one AU$33 delivered. I couldn't find any reviews on it or could locate it being sold on http://www.newbalance.com/men/accessories/sunglasses - maybe last years stock, but anyway, looks decent. Thanks OP.
Any idea what size the glasses are? You know the three sets of numbers along the inside of one of the arms? It's usually like 58-13-175 or something similar.
A lot of glass are made for narrower Caucasian faces which doesn't fit the wider East Asian faces.
Its pot luck really. Nothing on New Balance website.
You can buy one, if it doesn't fit then give it to a friend as a chrissie present.
Unless you have no mates…..
Thanks - got 2 pairs - cheers!
Any ideas on which one can have RX?
Does anyone know if Amazon accepts debit cards?
bought 3…..thanks op
great for Christmas pressies… cheers
Thnx
Just bought 3 pairs. Good for running/cycling. Levi sunnies looked cheap and not very good. These are perfect back up sunnies in the car.
Just asking: any way we can tell if all these "purchases" are for real? I think it would be a great way to pump up sales, people are more likely to buy if others are buying (IMHO). Would be good if there was some sort of user rating visible from the bargain page. Not accusing anyone, just asking (as I said). Hard to tell genuine enthusiasm from other kinds of behaviour (although I guess anyone associated with the product/company needs to declare).
Jut click on the users' names and read their OzB comments if you're suss. I think people who have commented on deals for a variety of products are likely to be genuine.
Yes, good point Dazweeja. I was just hoping for an easier way than checking everyone individually. Perhaps an average rating for their posts next to their name when posting? Or something like that.
the glasses may not block light and glare coming from sideways

you see
Discount not realistic. Googling reveals these sunglasses generally go for $30-$40, not $60+. e.g. https://shopping.yahoo.com/sunglasses/new-balance--brand/
http://www.joesnewbalanceoutlet.com/detail.asp?style=NB939-1…
http://www.walmart.com/search/search-ng.do?search_query=Moun…
Mine were still US$10+ off these prices plus these stores don't ship to AU
I'd rather buy from Amazon than any of those and, regardless of what other sites are peddling these styles for now, it's still a good buy for reasonable lenses.
I'm not denying it, just pointing out that the claimed 67% discount is misleading. If this sale was not on you could still get them at a 40 to 50% "discount" elsewhere.
With utmost resistance, grabbed one to keep with the OZB spirit! Thankx OP…
Bought a pair last night - seems like delivery not until 10 Oct at the earliest. Hopefully the Amazon ETA is a conservative estimate as I was hoping to have them sooner than that. Thanks OP.
Finally arrived - just in time! Nice sunnies. Thanks for posting OP!
your most welcome. glad you liked them
Amazon won't accept my debit card :/
Should work.
1. Contact Amazon - select "Something Else"
2. a) Select "Placing an order"
b) Select "Issues with checkout process"
3. Select "Chat"
Thanks, I'll try that.
Edit: The chat guy palmed me off to some specialist who called me, but he was unable to help me after I told him my card has 17 digits :/
Fantastic value, polarized sunnies from a decent brand for so little.
My last pair where my first polarized sunnies - never going back to ordinary tinted sunnies!
For my needs great for golf and tennis in particular where you need high contrast. The polarization subtracts most of the glare, instead of simply darkening your view like ordinary tinted sunnies.
Not seeing these styles on the website could these be Chinese knockoffs? http://www.newbalance.com/men/accessories/sunglasses/?srule=…
This is the response from new balance US:
Amazon is a licensed New Balance dealer and the New Balance merchandise you will find on Amazon.com is authentic. The New Balance Stamina sunglasses (style NB601) have been discontinued and are therefore no longer available through our online store.
The prices have changed. Nothing for $26.
This deal has expired.
Has anyone received a shipping confirmation yet?
yup got it yesterday
Emailed them today, said they were out of stock and were ordering some more. Upgraded my order to priority international free of charge
I didn't get an email but you can actively login to your Amazon account and look at tracking against your order. Turned out it had shipped reasonably quickly (couple of days) but spent a bit of time moving around the US last week.
Looks like it left for export on the weekend. Would ordinarily expect it to reach me by Friday from the US, but who knows what they're doing with it. Perhaps the estimate will be correct and it's another seven business days to wait for some new UV protection!
Deal back on for some styles, e.g.
http://www.amazon.com/New-Balance-NB-509-3-Sunglasses/dp/B00…
Polarised for $30 plus shipping (about $6). I'd probably look at cycling style ones though, like 999:
http://www.amazon.com/New-Balance-NB-999-3-Sunglasses/dp/B00…
got an email today asking if I want to continue waiting for stock…..
Just grabbed a pair with two lenses, one great for driving, the other great for golf.
Thanks!
