    I like this case....can anyone point me in a direction?

    I had a man come in the shop and ask me to tint his lenses, his frame is in a basic slip in case, but the case is VERY nice compared to what I have found for my shop. It feels sturdy and I like the stitching around the edge. The only tag is on the inside and it just says Made in USA. I'm wondering if any of you can tell me if you have seen this case, and if so, where did you find it...

    Where do you get your cases from? Those look like a higher end slip in. I know that LBI has some nice options like that.

    (I could just picture you going goo-goo over this guys case and snapping photos of it in the lab!)'

    That looks Identical to the last box I bought from Ron's. It was a month before I noticed the made in USA tag, and I show it to all that I give one to.

    Ron's and Hilco .... I am pretty sure they are the same cases. The Hilco ones are really sturdy

    Possibley....

    http://www.moonshineleather.com/leat...glasscases.cfm or I saw another called Turtlecreek


    A man went to an eye specialist to get his eyes tested and asked, "Doctor, will I be able to read after wearing glasses?"
    "Yes, of course," said the doctor, "why not!"
    "Oh! How nice it would be," said the patient with joy, "I have been illiterate for so long."

    LOL...yep, that's just about how it went, too! Except I did talk to myself a little! ** "wow, look at that...now that's nice! I wonder where I could get some of those? I'm taking a picture of that and asking my O'board buds about this!" ** yes, talking to one's self is a hazard of working alone! what can I say? At least I don't argue with myself! (much)
