But not Alex! Of course, you'll sign a waiver saying that if your 50-year-old frames break, they're not responsible, but that's par for the course. I've had 20-plus pairs of vintage frames filled and there's only been one casualty. Even then, the guys put replacement parts on the broken frames so they were wearable. If you ask, they might also show you the box of vintage frames they have under the counter. It's not out on display, but they've got some goodies in there! I haven't gone to any other Alex locations, so my rave review applies only to this wonderful location on Thomas. The prices are GREAT. I can usually get two pairs of glasses filled for about a hundred bucks."^^ . "3"^^ . "0"^^ . . "4"^^ . . . "0"^^ .
