I've been buying sunglasses here since 2011 and can only get authentic Ray bans at lower price here. Great customer service, great selection and great prices. PayPal available so you know purchases are covered. Georgia shades my number one choice when buying authentic name brand sunglasses.

Found this website as I was looking to replace a broken pair of my favorite sunglasses... not only did they have the glasses in stock, the price was substantially less than what I had paid. From time of order to delivery - I think it was only 3 maybe 4 days. The glasses are exactly what I had hoped for and for less $$$. I will definitely use them again.

Hi there!
October 31, 2013

Hi there! I felt compelled to tell others about Georgia Shades. This website sells many designer sunglasses at unbeatable prices. I discovered them myself searching online for Dior glasses at the cheapest price. Not only do they have the most luxurious designer glasses at the cheapest prices but most of them come with a full year manufacturers warranty. Kurt will answer the phone if you call or email you back promptly if you contact him. He is a genuinely kind, helpful person who is highly knowledgable about sunglasses. I have honestly never come across a company with better customer service in my 37 years. Kurt will definitely take care of you in the most prompt, thorough, and professional way. I will definitely get my next pair from Georgia Shades and give this company the highest possible rating they could earn!

It is great to see Georgia Shades is still providing a great product with great customer service at a fair price. I bought two pair of Raybans from Georgia Shades five years ago. When I needed replacements, I returned to their website and received the same great service once again. Keep up the good work Georgia Shades. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

Update:
I finally received a response from Georgia Shades, 7 business days after submitting my request. They apologized for the error & agreed to issue a full refund. Giving them another star for resolving the issue, although it should not have taken over a week to hear back from them.

Original Review:
I don't know how you can applaud a company's excellent customer service when you can't get anyone to respond to your numerous attempts to return an item. I have called their toll free line multiple times, but you are only prompted to leave a message. I have left messages and never received a call back. I have submitted requests via email and did not receive a response. The only response I ever received was an automated response, acknowledging my RMA request and instructing me to wait for someone to contact me with return instructions. It has been over a week since I submitted the RMA request and have yet to receive a response with return instructions. My assumption is they are going to wait until my 14 day return period expires and then reject the request. Total scam!

I purchased a pair of Costa Sun Glasses from Georgia Shades and I have to say that the it was a wonderful experience! They responded to all my questions as to availability very quick. The shipping was even faster then I expected. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase glasses!

I ordered a pair of sunglasses from them - turned out to be completely fake. They charge a 15% restocking fee and you pay for return shipping so they still make out with money for selling $5 fake cheapies! Don't buy sunglasses from them and if you already did, just compare it to real sunglasses at the sunglass hut/solstice. Tap the lenses and you will hear a difference in the sounds the tapping makes. They're not authentic.

This website Georgiashades.com is absolutely awful, never order anything from them. I ordered a pair of ray-bans and my order stayed on the "scheduled for shipment" status for over a week, so I called to cancel my order and they have yet to return my money.

Absolute crooks..
September 18, 2010

Absolute crooks. Do not order from this site... defective sunglasses. Twice... they make you pay for shipping back and then. Do not even give you a full refund... they keep their shipping cost. And yet they say Satisfaction Guaranteed! What a sham of a company!

I've purchased glasses multiple times at Georgia Shades and have had a good experience every time. I feel like we get a good price for our clients who look to us for one stop shopping and good pricing.

We get good service at a good price at GA Shades and will continue to give them our business!

I've read the other reviews about this company and they are without merit. The are authorized dealers of the products they sell (I called the manufacturer and asked) and the product is first-rate. People are simply uninformed and thus spreading incorrect information. Great site, great shades!

I have purchased several pairs of Rayban Wayfarers from Georgia Shades over the last several years - wish I didn't have to, but I have a penchant for losing them and refuse to wear cheap sunglasses! That said, it makes me feel so much better to pay less than retail for these beauties by doing business with Georgia Shades. They are the only place I've ever seen such good prices and GREAT customer service. There is no other place to buy great sunglasses than these guys!

My wife and I are going to Germany for the month of December to celebrate her birthday and Christmas. Our nephew asked if I could get some Ray Ban Sunglasses from the US for his Christmas gift because the glasses are very costly in Germany. I ordered from Georgia Shades, the price was great and they came when I was told they would be here... Good company to deal with and this will not be my last purchase from them... Thanks Georgia Shades

I ordered the Ray Ban Warfarer sunglasses and I am very pleased with the way they look and how I see out of them. They are polarized and everything I look at is so clear. I absolutely love them! Georgia Shades has a wide selection of sunglasses to fit every personality. I am very happy with the customer service I received and I will order from Georgia Shades again.

Crooks
April 22, 2011

Crooks - Crooks - Crooks Second Quality and defective sunglasses - That is all the sell - and if you can see the defect they make you pay for shipping back and then 25% restock fee. In fact I think this is how they make most of their money Satisfaction Guaranteed!

**FANTANSTIC EXPERIENCE** Negative reviews of Georgia Shades are simply unfounded. I ordered Gucci sunglasses and they were shipped and received as promised. The glasses are authentic Gucci down to the included documentation, accessories and Gucci bag. If you have questions their 800 number is answered by them in Greenville SC, and an email inquiry was answered within 20 minutes. What more could you ask for? This is a FIRST CLASS company unlike the first online dealer I had the misfortune of ordering from in New York.
