Price is important to me, but quality and comfort are even more important in the long run. From my experience, communication with the store can tell you a lot. Even big and famous brands sometimes send generic replies that are not very helpful. Taking a few minutes to research before buying can save a lot of money and frustration.
If anyone is interested in real user experiences, I sometimes write short notes about the shops I test.

Forums, blogs and communities create a kind of collective memory for shoppers. That is why I sometimes leave comments myself when I test a new shop or product. Metal can feel more premium, but acetate can be more comfortable for long wear. Of course we all have different taste, but patterns still appear in long discussions. I try to balance my budget between basic everyday items and a few special pieces. Whenever I find something that actually works well, I tend to reorder it later. Jewelry is another category where quality can be very different from photos. If they ignore basic questions or reply with copy pasted text, I become suspicious.
Just sharing my personal feedback. |
