Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I just received my gunmetal/crystal green polarized Ray-Bans from Amazon. I was never so afraid of a purchase in my life. I made a point to purchase a pair sold directly by Amazon versus a third-party seller. And I'm glad I did! There are numerous reviews claiming that their sunglasses are fake. Rest assured that if you buy the "sold by Amazon.com LLC" styles you have the real deal (be careful when you are selecting sizes/styles, as the seller changes for each that you click on...only certain ones are available directly from Amazon). I was skeptical of the authenticity because of the huge price difference between local vendors and Amazon ($195 vs. $115, respectively). I've always trusted Amazon, but thought I'd dig deeper. I emailed Ray-Ban corporate, and here's the response I got: Hello Brian, Thanks for your email; we appreciate your interest in RayBan. Please note that Amazon.com is an authorized online dealer of Rayban if the purchase is being made directly from Amazon. If the purchase is made by a 3rd party dealer on Amazon then we cannot guarantee if the product will be authentic. In your case you stated it was a direct purchase so you can be assured that the product you received is 100% authentic. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask us. Again we thank you for your business and loyalty to RayBan. Regards, Alex Customer Care Specialist | Ray-Ban.com I hope this information helps with your decision! It did with mine! I received the sunglasses today and couldn't be happier! Thank you Amazon for a great product at a great price!
