Very nice, but as I was looking at frames I noticed they had the model sharpied out on the inside of the frame. I was taking a photo of the frame and someone asked me not to. The owner said they weren't a shopping catalog.
Right away I knew something was up. I found the frames online while I was in the store. SOUTHPARK OPTICAL LITERALLY MARKS UP over 60% of the value. A frame they sold in store was $235, but online they are $158. It's 2015 where consumers have the purchasing power. I will literally post on our company internal website how much of a ripoff you are. You are robbing people and I hope our 66000 employees who you advertise to never purchase from you.
I spoke with the individual who referred me to the store and she use to work for the owner. She said he would NEVER let anyone look at the invoice of the glasses when they were purchased through the manufacture.
William R. (OWNER) it's absurd if you think your store front isn't a shopping catalog. THAT'S exactly what you are! You are a store with items to sell. You don't go to a car dealership and just buy a car there do you, William? No, you shop around. Would you go to Belk and buy a Polo shirt for $90.00 or buy it from Neiman Marcus for $150.00? I guess you would probably pay the $150.00?
I recommend that anyone who goes to Southpark Optical just memorize the numbers on the inside of the frame. Look at framesdirect.com and you can find almost anything. Give them a call, they are friendly, HONEST, and really well priced!
