Yes, you definitely pay more at Spectacle than you do at Lenscrafters. But in this case you get what you pay for, and in this case that means handcrafted glasses and the best customer service I have ever had. This legendary customer service includes all of the lens cleaner and cleaning cloths you can imagine, friendly but not fake staff, and people helping people to look good.
When I went in to pick out my new frames, the staff picked out a handful of frames after just seeing my face and what I was wearing. Normally some are hit and miss, some amazing and some horrendous. WIth them, every single one was a hit. By far the best experience I have had buying glasses, and believe me... I have had many pairs.
