Is this site legit? 

It looks like coupon code 2COOL4SKOOL knocks 25% off your order.  The three pack is pretty much the same price as the single one after that.

I went ahead and bought some.  I figured $30 for 5 pairs of sunglasses was worth it even if they are cheap.

My experience with cheap sunglasses has all been trash can quality, but what can you expect

I've had cheap ones that lasted me years and expensive ones that lasted me months as well, so I figure it's worth a shot.  If I hate them, it was $6.

U know those glasses that they sell at the dollar store, and no one ever buys..
These are those, but MAYBE worse.

It's not a matter of build quality, is more a thing of how much do you love being able to see  :p

Just nabbed two 3 packs for $20. Totally worth it even if they are crappy.

Funny how people buy these glasses, I guess it's kinda worth it though.

I always end up losing my sunglasses, which is why I always buy cheapo sunglasses. This is a great deal

That's why I buy my sunglasses at the hardware store.

Got mine in yesterday. They're a little smaller than I was expecting, but they work and are comfortable. All in all a good buy.

I remember when they sold glasses at the $1 store.  Also large framed art prints for $1. :C
