    Funny, I have not a single FT-28 on backorder. Who's backordering all those FT-28s?

    Its all over the news......................Lux just made an exclusive contract to serve all patients in every asylums from coast to coast with FT-28s.

    WalMart lost out because they wanted to push progressive's.

    Dude, Thanks SOOOOOOOOO much for the heads up.

    I have a safety contract with a company that allows FT's only. I was just getting ready to place the orders for the first quarters employees. Man, the heartache that I would have been in for. You saved me a world of hurt.


    I will be sure to change them all to FT 25 or FT 35. That would be the "ClearChoice" right?

    Wow...Thanks Man.

    Guess I should send back those D28's I just got in as counterfeit. The ClearChoice must be the clear choice in this case of clear choices. Thanks for that.

    Yeah, maybe they're seconds. Measure them - maybe they're FT-27.5s.:drop:

    We got some glass lenses many years ago from a place that the FT-25s would measure anywhere from 23m to 27mm. Think the overpolished the button?
