Sounds like a conundrum.

Just saw this

---

Costa will repair or replace, at our option, any product determined by Costa to be a manufacturer's defect. Since eventual wear and tear can be expected, reasonable repair charges will be levied if repairs are necessary as a result of normal wear, scratched lenses, broken hinges, accidental damage, misuse or any other problems determined not to be defects. A small processing fee will be charged for each warranty claim processed.

Seems like they would consider this to be accidental damage even though I did nothing to cause it.

They are great. I broke a lens on a pair I didn't wear often and let them sit in a pocket in the truck. I finally sent it in years later and they changed both lenses out. (they said the found delamination or discoloring, I didn't complain. No I wear those hammerheads all the time wen driving.

Good idea. I have a tiny knick right in front of my left eye. Gonna complain about the UV not working, or something weird.
They'll never even notice the little knick.

Same thing happened to be. $11 and they're arriving this saturday

Yes they will. I sent mine in last fall bc I had snapped the frame in half on one side. After the received them, they emailed me with the details. They said it would cost $11 for the frames. However they noticed that there were also a couple nicks in my right lens. And that they would fix that for $89 if I wanted. I said no thanks. And they mailed the same glasses back to me just with a fixed frame.

Does their warranty cover losing the sunglasses?

Maui Jim told me on a repair that if they have to replace one lens, they replace the other was well, so that they are identical. Costa may have a similar approach.
