The "free" GATTACA sunglasses (www.gattacorp.com) that are advertised in so-called "high-end magazines" are a scam. The sunglasses are of pitifully poor quality, made from cheap plastic and utterly useless. They have been in this business of fraud for over 5 years - do they sell at regular retail price at all, I wonder? -------------------------------------------------------------- From: carbonmn@ecentral.com (carbonmnNOcaSPAM@ecentral.com.invalid) Subject: Re: Gattaca sunglasses ad in Bicycling mag? Newsgroups: rec.bicycles.tech Date: 2000/06/08 Get ready for the sucker catagory. I got some and.....how can I say this.... they are like looking through very dirty glass. The plastic isn't worth the few cents it costs them to make them. Shipping/handling...yea! right! Welcome to the club! Regards!
