    Wait is this something new chris? Haven't I been able to buy frames from Ali express for a few years?

    You can even buy a machine to stamp "Rayban" on the lenses...

    Tallboy................ Alibaba.com has been selling frames forever as a distributor.

    AliExpress is a retailer selling retail at factory pricing.

    If we can buy things straight out of China (or any country; Iran, Indonesia, Somalia, etc.) without U.S. government safeguards, what is there to do?

    It's a free world. People can do whatever they think best.

    I know of people taking veterinary meds to save money. I know of people buying medications online from overseas.

    We can't stop it. We can only provide U.S. (developed Western world) standards of care.

    (P.S. That's why it's such a black eye that a Canadian province would do what British Columbia did. What are they? Sonora?)

    Yup, arf, arf, couldn't afford my arf, arf pain pills but my veterinarian wrote me out an Rx for my dog that I can buy online, from a site in China. Only problem, I have to wrap them in cheese to take them.

    I'm a big fan of R. Martellaro, and I want to do my best in support of all things Wisconsin. What could be more appropriate than cheese. Gotta go, there's a toilet bowl with my name on it.
