Are your sunglasses new?
Do you sell used items?
When you place order at CrystalShades.com you receive

a strict
return/exchange policy.
We carefully inspect each and every item before we ship
it to you.
Top.
Why are your prices so
low?
Our business is 100% Web-based. Since we don't have a
fancy office or retail store, we don't have to pay huge
rent fees. Doing business over the Internet helps us to
keep our overhead costs down so we could pass our
savings to you and offer top quality designer sunglasses
at 30-70% below retail price.
Top.

When will my order be
shipped?
In-stock items usually leave our warehouse within 24-76
hours (not including holidays and weekends). Processing
time for backordered items is usually 1-2 weeks. Very
rarely, due to the high rate of inventory turnover and
changes to the product lines of various manufacturers,
some items may become backordered for more than 2 weeks
or unavailable. If such situation should occur with your
order our Customer Service will notify you as soon as we
receive this information from our suppliers.

When will my order
arrive?
Shipping time = Processing time + Delivery time.
All
domestic orders are shipped by insured USPS Priority
mail or DHL Ground or 2 day saver. Please note that we

economical method of shipment for each order. Once

depending on your destination. Express shipping
available upon request for
in-stock items shipped

Sometimes a shipping delay may occur if our fraud
prevention measures require further verification of the
order. If your PayPal address is unconfirmed or if you
provide us with Shipping addresses that is different
from your Billing address we may ask you for signed Credit Card Transaction
Authorization form or/and identity proof so we
can be sure you are the real owner of the credit card.

Top.
What does the "processing
time" mean?
Processing time means waiting for the not-in-stock

order for quality assurance, packing it carefully and
finally bringing your item to the local post office.
