Value always has, and always will, be the main feature of our service and if you show me any products on our site that our more expensive than Specsavers (apart from varifocals which we are reviewing now) then I will eat my hat. Also check out the high street vs GD price comparison at http://beta.glassesdirect.co.uk/compare. Thanks, Jamie.

When you started you offered a great service and a unmatchable price - now you're getting up there with the specsavers so I won't be using you again. I can remember when I could get a great pair of specs for £15 and free anti-scratch coating. What happened? Sorry Jamie, I can’t agree.
