    Anyone carry Sama Eyewear?

    Thoughts on this line?

    Just had a patient walk in with a piece asking me to replace it. Before running out to VEE I'd thaought I'd ask around.

    I met with a rep, once.

    Stuff was nice.

    Price was way over the top.

    But I was assured that 10% went to some pet cause of the owners.

    No sale.

    The pet cause is the Sam Vance Foundation, named for the owners son. He died as a result of drug abuse and the foundation is very active in drug abuse education and recovery work

    I talked to them years ago at VEE. I guess my redneck style wasn't good enough to see the line, and I was blown off. If I remember correctly, they also have a very high initial buy in.
