we have an in stock section of frames on hand ready to ship same day, all other items come from their specific vendor, processing times are available on the shipping page which sadly most people do not read and decide on there own what we have and do not have in stock to ship.
For this specific order the item takes three days to get to us to be shipped, if the policy was read the customer would know that. We refunded the order based on our policies as requested by the customer.

Order placed on 4/2/24 after business hours, we ordered the frame on behave of the customer on the 3rd and were ready to ship the item by the 6th. We received an email from *** ******* requesting to cancel which we did minus the $20 cancel fee. This fee goes to cover our cost of shipping we endure from the manufacturer and shipping we have to pay to return the canceled item. We were within our time frame of shipping as per our policies. We are a small business and simply absorb the shipping costs of placed orders if they are canceled within our window of delivery.Initial Complaint

I reject this as they refused until I placed several complaints ,BBB,SAG etc, they literally left me without enough to get complete eyeglasses I ended up paying that 202.+ out of pocket.. THEY withheld it in a way that caused hardships. They do not appear to be trustworthy as they will say 1 thing then string you along till you force their hand, then they will DELAY you till you face hardship

Original package delivered on Jan 31st ******************************************************************************** and we were told by the customer that it was not, so initially there was a divide as to what happened to the delivered item.
We filed an investigate claim with the **** and after some time of trying to send another pair of eyeglasses we refunded the order as it appeared our customer did not want a replacement.

The lenses were not sent back because there is nothing wrong with lenses and I need them to see I put them in another pair of glasses. At this point I am requesting for a refund. I have called the ********************************* and was hung up on. I also requested to speak with a supervisor/manager and was always told they cant come to the phone and **** would call me back and never did. This have been a big big inconvenience for me I would like a refund and additional $3,000. Even after Coolframes received the glasses no one called me to try and settle with me. I do not want another pair of glasses from Coolframes in case this happens again.

With deep regret we were not able to fill this order. Our vendor Luxottica had the item as available on their site and he showed it ours. They kept giving us new dates of delivery and we passed the info onto our customer, at one point they told us the item was no longer available and we canceled the order. We are very sorry for all of it especially if we ruined a Christmas gift that was us being counted on for. Luckily this does not happen often and I am on behalf of my company very sorry for the most terrible frustration we caused. If we are ever trusted with another order please reach out to me directly for personal attention and price concession. *********************************

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:the business didn't answer a question asked in the complaint and need clarification on issues responded to. 1) The question is, if the frames only come scratched or damaged in any way, does the business provide a free mailing label to return the damaged item to the business? 2) The clarification needed is business states restocking fee of 10% is only imposed if it is unable to replace the frames. So need to confirm, if able to replace damaged frames, there is no restocking fee for the damaged returned one? 3) Business also states it is only a reseller of good & doesn't contract with manufacturers. Need confirmation that business is an authorized seller of ***** frames & gets frames directly from this manufacturer & not a 3rd party.
Thanks to *** for the reply

Thank you for your message with the BBB, my apologies for the poor reply to your inquiries to our CS team.
If an item is damaged in transit it will be replace the item for sure. We would need a picture of the box and of the damaged, we would then file a claim with the shipped and have the merchandise exchanged. We would still charge a restock fee of 10% if we are not permitted in the unlikely scenario to replace the damaged item. We make no contract with anyone, we are just resellers of optical products. with that said we aim to keep a customer and each case is its own, we would do what we can to make each customer happy so they can purchase again and tell their friends and family. I am always available for any questions. Please email me directly to *********************************
