THX Optimizer Glasses

[admin_exported]

Hello, Can anyone tell me where i can buy a pair of THX OPTIMIZER GLASSES i can find them anywhere not even on e-bay.

You can buy them online at the THX store - they're only $1, but you'll have to mail them for info on shipping costs to the UK. Doubt they'll be much more than $5 all-in.

Hi Andrew - this thread may have gone on elsewhere since August's posting but today (February 6th 2008) I have just logged on to the THX store site. Yes the glasses are still available at $1.99 (top value), but the carriage to the UK is either $65 or $73!

$73 - I can probably fly to the US on RyanAir for that!

I've sent them a stroppy e-mail re the shipping costs and also asked if they have any European outlets....

If they ever reply - I'll let you know - David.

Some on eBay here - two days to go.

I'll talk to our promo guys, too - sounds like we should do a reader offer/subs gift/cover mount!

As i replied elsewhere last week, the site actually says

"Disregard shipping prices in your cart. Item sent via USPS. US approx $2.50, Int'l $2-10"

A cover disc with these damn glasses would be a FANTASTIC incentive. Great idea, Claire.

As Andrew said, ignore that. I bought a pair a couple of months back from the THX site and only paid a couple of dollars. They arrived in the post a few days later.

Following my recent on-line order for a pair of THX glasses, they arrived within a few days by ordinary post from the States (in an envelope with no packing). I've been waiting for my credit card statement to see what the final cost was - it's just come in at $5.89, or £3.11 in real money. I guess they're worth it overall - you actually only seem to need them for one of the exercises in the THX set-up but it makes the whole thing complete I guess.

Just get the Digital Video Esentials DVD and there is a pair included and a much more comprehensive set up for both Video and sound.

Hi Clare

I thought your idea of of doing a cover mount with TXH Optimizer Glasses was brilliant especially as there still appear to be lots of people out there struggling to get them easily in UK (myself included).

What happened about this?

It can only help the magazine's sales figures (and maybe find it some more new regular fans/subscribers) 🙂

Many thanks in anticipation
