Today, I was going shopping with a friend. I got up to get off the train and landed on my ass. Not only had I walked into the metal bar, I'd broken my $800 glasses, and the train doors had closed, with my friend on the other side of the doors. FML

Has anyone mentioned that $800 is a redonkulous amount to spend on glasses!!!!! *SNARK* Honestly, any name brand frame and scratch-resistant / glare-free lens combo is going to be about that much. * Shooting star flies overhead... "THE MORE YOU KNOW!" *

i beg to differ. in the UK, designer frames are about £125, scratch free coating is free, and the anti-glare is an additional £30. you should've gone to specsavers.

what you are forgetting is that the english pound dominates the aussie dollar lol, so what costs in pounds there for glasses most likely adds up to $800AUD. and people, they are most likely NOT perscription glasses, but in fact designer sunnies, she just called them glasses. you know, D&G and chanel and maybelliene and whatever.

welll, according to google, 1 British pound = 1.85676301 Australian dollars, which means £155 comes to approximately 287.65AUD.

Re #22 - NHS pays for your glasses. They don't here in Australia, so STFU. Clearly nobody here wears glasses.

@#90 you do realise that there is a criteria to be illegible for help from the NHS? so, before you tell someone to stfu, make sure you're right before, to prevent you from looking a fool. fool.

Unless you're J-Lo, why would you own $800 shades? Jackass!

OP said glasses, how did you get they were shades?

$800 for prescription glasses isn't uncommon with all the hidden costs often required (so all those YDIers fixating on the price need to get over it). But in all honesty you STILL deserved it for not paying attention to where you were going. Especially since I'm also willing to bet that your friend wasn't the only one unable to disembark due to your lack of attentiveness.

whoopi ****** do. and I see from your nickname just how full of yourself you are.

$800? Daaamn, unless they were made of solid gold with diamond lenses, those are really not worth the cost.

WHAAAAA! i broke my $800 glasses! boo hoo. get over it. if theyre so expensive you cant replace them, think about getting a cheaper pair of glasses. im also pretty sure the train stopped again at some point too...
