About Us
SeattleSunglass.com is the internet presence of Seattle Sunglass Company, a brick and mortar retail sunglass shop in the heart of Downtown Seattle. As an independent retailer, we are able to manage our own inventory and adjust quickly to the latest trends and technologies. Through our association with Seattle Eye MDs, Seattle Sunglass Company is able to offer prescription sunglasses and provide full-service sunglass solutions to our customers. Seattle Sunglass Company's mission is to provide superior service while delivering the best in fashion, sport, and prescription sunglasses.

Authorized On-Line Dealer
Seattle Sunglass Company is an authorized dealer for all products listed on our website and we guarantee the authenticity of our product lines. We have further been certified as one of few authorized dealers to become an Authorized On-Line dealer. Our online authorized dealer agreements require that we sell all product at suggested retail. This ensures that our customers will receive their full manufacturer's warranty. Beware of online stores selling diverted, discontinued, or damaged products. Even shopping from authorized dealers that are not approved for On-Line sales incurs risk on your part. It is the discretion of each manufacturer to honor warranties for product purchased from a non-authorized entity. We are an Oakley Premium Dealer. Seattle Sunglass Company is also an Authorized Oakley Prescription Dealer, Authorized Dealer for Maui Jim Prescription, Kaenon Polarized Prescription and others.

Item Availability & Backorders

Item Availability times are a guideline of the typical or usual ship times for each particular item if it is in stock. If you are in a hurry or need to confirm that an item is in stock, please contact us by phone prior to ordering. While we wish item availability were 100% accurate, there may be times when the item is actually out of stock at the time your order is processed. This could occur, for example, if an in-store transaction for the same item occurs just as, or shortly after, your order is placed online. Another case is if there are multiple orders in one day for the identical item causing the item to be out of stock by the time your order is processed. Again, the Availability status listed at the bottom of each item, (e.g. Usually ships the next business day), is the typical ship time AFTER your payment and ship to information has been verified.

In the event your item is backordered and we anticipate any delay of more than 24-48 hours we will notify you by e-mail or phone. Backordered items will be shipped as soon as the item arrives in our facility. Your credit card is charged when the order has shipped.

Please read the warranty card included with your sunglass purchase for details. The end-user is responsible for all shipping charges incurred due to warranty repairs.

However, should Seattle Sunglass Company be involved as an intermediate party, we reserve the right to determine what damage may be due to a manufacturer's defect versus normal wear-and-tear.
