A pair of Ray Ban sunglasses is the ultimate comfort and pampering you can offer your eyes. From the classic aviators to the more modern options from Ray Ban, each pair is practically irresistible. In order to save time and money, most of us like to shop online for everything we fancy. If you have decided to buy your next pair online, you need to first ensure that you are buying an authentic Ray Ban. With all the designer brands available online today, it is but obvious to be scared of cheap imitations and complete rip offs!
If you end up with a knock off Ray Ban, the quality and eye protection won't be what you paid for. This makes it very important that you read through the following tips really carefully and bring up an authentic pair.
When you find a really low price on your favorite pair, the first question that comes to your mind is if it is a fake. If you are thinking this, you are on the right path because a very low price does look like trouble. You could be purchasing a replica Ray Ban and this will never claim to be an original and not have the trademark logos anywhere on the pair.
The trouble is with fake ones sold at bargain prices that will never hold up to even light use. Since they are sold illegally, you will never be able to claim a refund or return on these. So, how do you ensure you are buying an authentic Ray Ban?
Make sure you are purchasing from a well known online store that offers them in bulk. This would be the only way they will be able to sell them at low prices. Checking a few things on the website before choosing one to buy from will be a great help. Read customer reviews, call up the customer service number, look for the offered guarantee and return policies - in short, read up all the fine print to avoid future disappointments.
Here are a few tips to figure out if the pair you have received at your doorstep is authentic or not:
- The box that your Ray Ban came in must have a recycling logo and a semi permanent sticker. You will also find more details on the box like the serial number, details of the distributor and manufacturer, frame and lens type as well as the model number. Without this sticker, these are not genuine!
- The case of your new sunglasses must have a "Luxottica" logo that is engraved and not painted.
- Now, it is time to inspect the sunglasses. Hold it up to light and check for the interlocking RB logo under the nose bridge. Hold your pair upside down and the logo should read right side up. If at this time, the logo reads upside down, you have been conned!
- The right lens of your Ray Ban must have the RB logo above the hinge. If it is at any other place, it is not authentic. Also the rubber on the frame and earpiece is of the highest quality and should feel chalky to touch. It should not feel sticky or stiff at all.
- The authenticity card that came with your pair can also give away the clever knock off. It should be printed on high quality stock card and there should be no typos or grammatical errors. Run your finger on the print and there should be no smearing or smudges.
Follow these to make sure you always end up with an authentic pair of Ray Ban sunglasses no matter where you buy them from.
