Fantastic Service Highly Recommended

Ordering process was easy. Great communication confirming my order. Along with an email explaining when to expect an update and how long the shipping process takes. My glasses arrived within the estimated timeframe and are incredible. Really pleased with the frames. Would highly recommend.

Taking over a month

Ordered glasses on May 1st, 2023 and it is already on June 7th. They told me the ETA would be the middle to end of May. However, I haven't received any updates or a tracking number. I have sent emails twice to ask if there is any updates but they always send emails back with the same message like "Thank you for your patience with your order. We have reached out to Yuichi Toyama requesting an update and will get back to you as soon as possible. "
Now I'm kind of worried about if I can receive the product.

Quality Work

Had to be a little patient with the wait (about a month) but was worth it considering the quality of work done on the eyeglasses - accurately cut and fitted lenses to the frame and my prescription.

Responsive customer service

Responsive to email, took a little longer than I anticipated but they told me they were waiting on a response from the designers. I ordered 1/19 and received 2/1. Shipped and packaged protectively and frames arrived in great shape ready for my optometrist to put in lenses. Very pleased!

No response yet. Status of my orders.

I have recently placed two orders from your website. The product names and their respective order numbers are Oliver Peoples Lachman (#8958) and Oliver Peoples Bernardo (#8958). I just wanted to know the status of my order? Are the orders processed yet ? When will the order get shipped and when can I expect it to get delivered to me ?

I mailed earlier yesterday, but have not received any response yet. I have even tried calling on the number provided on the website +1 (209) 920-7732 but no answer.

Please let me know the tentative timeline. I’d really appreciate it.

I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.

Regards

Hi Hrithik,

Thank you for your patience. Our credit card processing services were reviewing your payment transactions and were unable to approve them. Since you placed three separate orders and used varying payment methods, the review process was longer than usual.

All orders were cancelled and the payments were voided. After your first order, we notified you immediately that your order was cancelled and advised you to try using PayPal. However, we did not receive a response and subsequent transactions were not made through PayPal.

We apologize for the delayed response.

Ordered some glasses on the 26th June…

Ordered some glasses on the 26th June and its now 13th July and have not heard from anybody from specs collective even though I have also emailed them twice. At this point I'm beginning to believe and question if the company actually exists.

Hey Heidi,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our store. Each review is an opportunity for our small business to examine our current processes and identify ways to improve our customer’s experience.

We were able to locate and research your order. You placed an order on June 25th (Saturday). We sent an email on June 27th (Monday) that contained fulfilment details to the email address you provided at the time of the order. Your order was for a backordered frame. The product page for the frame clearly notes the backorder status. To further be transparent, we sent an additional email noting that this frame is on backorder and provided an estimated delivery date. We also have not received any emails from the provided email address. Please confirm that the emails were sent to info@specscollective.com. We can also be reached through chat and phone. We’d be happy to provide an order update or cancel your order for a full refund any time before the order ships.

Overall good experience

I found the Mykita glasses I wanted fairly-priced at Specs Collective and although the German manufacturer was experiencing substantial production delays (months), Specs Collective kept me informed, gave me options, and a discount in recognition of my patience. The glasses finally arrived today, securely packaged, after they had provided me tracking details. Solid customer service in spite of the manufacturer's challenges and I would buy from them again.

My experience was great in every way

My experience was great in every way. Since discovering the website, the brand and model of the glasses I wanted. The purchase process, the service (thanks Oliver) until the delivery in Brazil was very smooth and efficient. I felt confidence and complete satisfaction. I loved my purchase.
