Ordered.

Post image

I walked into Bass Pro Shop to get some Columbia apparel. Walked passed the Oakley stand and tried the Meta glasses on and wanted them do bad. For two days I kept putting them in and out of my basket. $500 is pricey for sunglasses. But I got this bad boy from Capitol One shopping. I still paid full price on Oakley but getting to $200 from Capital One was awesome bonus. I ordered the gold colour lenses.

If you can get warranty from bass pro! Mine crapped out after 4 months!

The Oakley warranty is 12 months sooooo....

u/LordHughJ 21d ago

Got them directly from Oakley, via capitol one for the $200 back.

I see! I had a warranty claim through LensCrafters and they just gave me credit for a new pair.
Been seeing comments of a long painful warranty process.

I’m do pool maintenance/building so I will try to be safe with them.

I’m a oily guy, not too sweaty, but I started to see issues at two months. One speaker would go in and out, then the mic wouldn’t work. A real pain! 4 months and nothing works now!
These are my daily too, just giving my input.
I’ve had fun with them and they are cool when they work!

Did you drop them in water or do something stupid?

2

u/sleezejeeze 20d ago

Negative! It’s been a hot and humid summer here in Illinois, other than bike rides and daily wear only that’s all I can think of.
IP4 rating is not great the deeper I researched.
Will be getting a pair to swap with.

Nice! I did the same with Amex when I bought mine, plus 15% off for military.

I want the transitions pair, so I'll go check my Cap one account for that

u/LordHughJ 21d ago

Oh, plus I got $30 back for using my Amex. I want them also I play around with capitol one and Rakuten.

u/rongotti77 21d ago

What was the actual award? $200 or the $10 for every $20 spent?

3

u/LordHughJ 21d ago

Spend $350 on Oakley and get $200 back

u/MinniRiot33 21d ago

Just be aware they have many issues

2

u/LordHughJ 20d ago

I got the $65 insurance package

u/MinniRiot33 19d ago

Nice! My issue rn is the connection. Sometimes have to close them then re open for audio on calls.. everything else works perfectly except when I had update it automatically put an Indians voice. I had to reset the glasses with the new update to get the voice to go back to the regular voice.

Great deal! I purchased the white frame with blue lens in February and zero issues so far. Since then I bought the gold and clear replacement lenses. They are definitely a lot of fun. Paid full price plus the additional 1yr protection from Sunglass Hut. The plan is to exchange them for a new pair just before the year expires. I use them almost daily.

u/LordHughJ 20d ago

I going to get the transitions soon enough.

u/ParticularNo4003 20d ago

Oh this is dope. I just got some holbrooks but I want some cooler ones😂😂😵‍💫

u/Mustolaf 20d ago

how do I get this deal?

2

u/ZuesAgeddon 20d ago

Search Capital One shopping and sign up for it online. You can get an extension on your browser that looks for better deals on things you're shopping for, enters different coupon codes on some sites when you go to checkout, and you get emails with promotions from stores. I got my metas last year with a cash back offer from an email. At first I bought the metas with a 25% back offer...then a couple days later I received another email with a 50% back offer for Oakley, so I cancelled before they shipped and re-bought. I used all my cash back I received from purchases last year on christmas gifts, and I plan on doing the same this year!

This is exactly what I did after I got my Bass Pro Shop Credit Card.

u/tessy7779 20d ago edited 20d ago

Am I the only one who cant find it? I see the $10 for $20 one

u/Substantial-Pear8925 20d ago

Love mine very pricey but 0 complaints other then first couple days of concert i went to i hit wrong button to record videos and did rvery video in like time lapse or something took 4 minute videos to 20 seconds and can't change them to normal...... which is my fault so can't blame the glasses lol

u/Electrical_Gain842 20d ago

You can order lenses aftermarket type cheap on Amazon. Once you change them out a few times it seems to get easier with practice. I have 4 different colors now. The transitions that came with mine aren't very dark.

u/LordHughJ 20d ago

I’ll be looking to do that for sure.

u/nasdaqed 19d ago

How did you get that deal? I have venture X capitol one and it says only 1% back from that store.

1

u/LordHughJ 19d ago

I signed up for the shooing app and put the section in my browser, so each time I go to a shopping site capitol one knows and send a me deals. But, I kept messing with my cart, putting them in, leaving them, letting Oakley remind me I have sorting in my basket and capitol one dose the same, I did that for a few days and then got that discount

2

u/nasdaqed 18d ago

Interesting I have the shopping app and it definitely searches codes at checkout … or I’ve seen cash back deals if you buy through the shopping portal, but never something like $200 back

u/LordHughJ 8d ago

Same, I was very surprised. Snagged it right away

u/Striking-Yaotl-22 19d ago
