The current average rating does not justify the terrible service I experienced. Most of the positive reviews appear to be from over two years ago. Avoid this online frame service at all costs. You risk receiving poorly made, unfit lenses with no option for a refund or fix. Instead, they blame customers for placing an “incorrect order.” They don't… Read more
realise they are operating online and customer dont have privilege to check before order and it is their responsibility to make customer happy with the service.
My entire bad experience with this company could have been avoided if they had communicated better and maintained a properly functioning website.
Because of their poor service, I ended up wasting money on rubbish lenses. I had to throw away the lens order and temporarily continue using my old lenses until I could purchase new ones elsewhere.
Not recommending framebuy to any customers
I purchase a glasses case on line for a Christmas gift and have heard nothing about delivery. I have tried to contact this company by chat, email and phone and to no avail. When I buy online, I still expect customer service. Very disappointing.
Dispatch times are twice longer as advertised. The website says priority support, phone, chat -- none of this exists, the support email does not reply or lies about dispatching time the only time they reply. All phones numbers are disconnected. There's no chat support. They also did not publish my review on their website, which explains why all of… Read more
the reviews on their own website are 5 stars. product quality is OK, but everything else is misleading, and there is no support.

I recently purchased the Pompano frames with multifocal lenses. I was informed on every step of the process via email. The glasses I received were well wrapped and in a nice protective hard case. My prescription was followed perfectly and the frames are good quality. The price was about $300 cheaper than what I would usually pay at my optometrist.… Read more
This is the third pair of glasses I have purchased through Framesbuy and the experience has been perfect on each occasion.
Poor customer service experience – Not a positive experience with Framesby to place an order for new transition optical lenses. Initial email forwarded was responded to by Sean now i would like to place a order with no replies to emails or messages, some what disappointed with the level of customer service
Surprisingly great glasses! – I don’t normally write reviews but felt I really had to in this case. As a UK resident, I didn’t realise that my glasses would be coming all the way from Australia so initially I was a bit annoyed that I hadn’t clocked on to the fact it would be an overseas delivery and would probably take longer to come. As I already had a pair of glasses, I just… Read more · 1
wanted some spare glasses for work and home. I needed some petite/small glasses and found them relatively easily on the website. When the glasses arrived, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. They were packaged really well and looked great. The glasses came in some lovely cases, thereby endearing them to me even more!! Quality wise, they are top notch and I would definitely recommend Framesbuy to others. Great product and service, I was truly happy to receive my glasses!
Just what I needed – I purchased 2 soft glasses cases. My glasses fit well and the matching cleaning cloth is really cute and practical. Very happy with the purchase
Great quality and great customer service – Super easy to find products awesome range of designs to choose from. My first order had a product defect and the team responded instantly and sent out a replacement including something extra which I really appreciate. I really like how a soft cleaner is included and it's not just a plain black one it's the same design as the case which is really cool. These guys pay attention to detail will definitely be coming back
Positive reviews
A little disappointed in customer service at the beginning of placing order. Glasses finally arrived and are really great. Also love the protective case they send with glasses. Will order from them again
Review of products bought – This is the 3rd pair of glasses I have ordered all of them have turned up better than I expected, would recommend to other people. Great products
Perfect Reglaze – I was quoted over $600 to reglaze my prescription glasses by my local optician so I looked for an online company and got a quote from Framesbuy for just over $200. The progressive lenses are perfect. I would definitely use again.
Negative reviews
Started off well with their website and ordering process incredibly easy to navigate. Made the purchase two weeks ago and that's where the positives end. Haven't received tracking number and no communication after sending an online inquiry a week from purchase. Every (there are many differing) contact number listed on google or their website… Read more
cuts out after a few rings. Decided then to look at reviews and incredibly dismayed to see others have shared the same experience. Most of their options for frames + lenses estimate a two week delivery timeline. This deadline expired today and still no word or even a tracking number! I fear I'll never be able to receive these glasses or get a refund for the costs incurred. As it is currently - I would not recommend.

Disappointing – Progressive glasses from prescription were only distance glasses. Have tried contacting back to determine next steps, but I have recieved no replies.
Unfortunately glasses case broke after only two months use – Initially I was very pleased, the store site was easy to navigate and the buying experience went off without a hitch (although the glasses case did take a while to get to me). When I first received the product I was very pleased and loved the item, it was exactly as I had pictured it and seen in the online store. Unfortunately yesterday after only… Read more
using the product for a couple of months the case has broken with the magnetic closing mechanism no longer keeping the case closed! I am going to purchase the same case in the alternative design which involves a flap and press stud closure system to see if this lasts longer.

Love the case – Beautiful glasses case, exactly as seen in the photos. Good quality, but I think someone in the delivery process had been rough with the package so the case was slightly distorted at the hinges. An easy fix, and the case is lovely!
Love the dog and cat designs – I really love these glasses cases. I have already had one of the cat designs, but due to the case being dropped and played with by grandchildren a few times, I needed to get another case. This time a dog design, which I love.
Beautiful frames – I really like the glasses. They're colourful, which is just what I wanted and they're lightweight, which is also a plus. They arrived in a very hand friendly case and, since they were coming all the way from Australia, very quickly. The store was easy to navigate and I thought there was a good range of products.
Second Pair of Great Stylish Glasses – I have now purchased a second pair of tinted sunglasses from Framesbuy. They are very good quality and the vision is exactly the same as the glasses I have purchased previously instore in an optical chain store. My first pair are now over one year old and I wear them very often, as they are my favourites and I have received many compliments on them. Show reply
Great reglazing of my favourite glasses – After receiving my new prescription from opsm I ordered reglazing of my favourite glasses online with Framesbuy. Process was very quick and easy. Sent my glasses to Framesbuy and received them back in a week. They came in a cute hard case. Communication was great and I am very happy. Will definitely use again.
Loving the glasses – Took about 3 weeks to arrive. However, they do give updates on when they proceed to the next stage. So reassurance was there. Quality of glasses were excellent. Very happy with purchase .
This is perfect – The process from start to finish was very easy and the product is much better than I expected, and I was updated by email every step of the way. I look forward to buying another pair of multi focal glasses in the future.

Glasses cases – These cases looked exactly like the picture, was a great price. Was really easy to navigate the website. There was a great selection of cases, at a really good price, quick and easy tracking and shipment. The quality is great, they are good and sturdy, easy to assemble. Clothes are so soft and clean lenses greatly.
Beautiful high quality glasses cases – I recently purchased three glasses cases - two hard cases and one of the folding variety - and am super happy with them all! The designs (cats on two and flowers on the third) are gorgeous and all very accurately represented on the website. All are of really high quality, fit my glasses well and look great. Great end-to-end service from Framesbuy too - I will definitely be back in future!
Very happy with purchase – Lovely, sturdy glasses case and fast delivery - thank you. I plan on using this website for my next eyewear prescription as the prices look very reasonable.
Love love love the folding glasses case – I purchased one of these folding glasses case years ago and boy did it look its age I was trying to find a replacement and stumbled upon Framebuys Great product and fast speedy delivery
Awesome collection… Bought a cute glasses case and absolutely loved it.. Going to buy again soon – Satisfied with product ordered and yes will buy more very soon
GLASSES CASES – I got two glasses cases and I am very happy with both of them, both are very colourful and pretty. I also got free postage and had to wait a little longer, but very happy with the whole transaction.
Excellent design, great service – Received a lovely glasses case with cats - my favourite -plus a bonus soft case with wipe. Could not be happier with everything and will be getting my next case here!
Georgous glasses case – I love the big flower pattern it is exactly as shown and the matching cleaning cloth makes it really special. I am so happy with my purchase.
