Default Reputable On-line Retailer

I'm in the market for a pair of Maui Jim's. I lost my last pair , but liked them so much I want to get another.

I have not any on-line or brick & mortar that give any kind of discount.

Does anybody know of a retailer that discounts Maui Jim's?

I don't want to start a whole debate on 'the best sunglasses' but if anybody has any suggestions for other manufacturers, post them up. I looked at Oakley and Ray Ban but really like the fit and optics of the Maui Jim's.

Thanks,
Michael

Sunglass Hut used to give employees 30% discounts twice a year on any stock - buddy up to a manager/sales associate and when that time rolls around, throw them some cash.

$300 MJs - 30% ($90) + (up to, if at all) $20 to the associate to get them to you at a discount = $70 off retail.

I bought my new pair of Ray-Bans from http://www.gooddens.com/

I didn't check to see if they had Maui Jim's, but they had the best price on Ray Bans and very quick shipping.

This is definitely the best and largest website for glasses and sun glasses. http://www.framesdirect.com/framesfc/Maui_...lhng-slb-l.html

I've gotten my regular glasses for $150 less than what lenscrafters was selling them for.

negative. these guys apparently don't know what actual retail is; their prices are as high as or higher than any local sunglass hut.

I get $20 gift cards once per year from Sunglass hut since I bought my first MJs from them. Of course it's only been a little more than two years, so maybe that's all I'll get. We'll see.
