3D Vision Spare Glasses in the UK? Does anyone know where to get them!
Hi,

I recently purchased the 3d Vision kit for use with my Acer H5360 Projector which works absolutley brilliantly!! But I want to get a second set of glasses for the system. I have looked everywhere I can think of and he onl reputable seller I can find is Pixmania but they are out of stock and their Due date just keeps moving forward every day!. I phoned them up and they don't know if they will ever get them back in stock!

So my question is has anyone in the UK purchased a spare set of glasses and where did you get them from?

I am aware there are a couple of other shops reporting to sell them on google shopping but I have tried them and they don't seem to answer their phones, so not a good start!

Would really appreciate any advice.

Thanks Matt.

PS. Why do nvidia not have a uk shop like they have in the US? /confused.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':confused:' />

I did see that one but I've never heard of them before and when I tried to phone them I was in a queue for 30 minutes still number '4' in the queue. This number never went down so I don't think anyone was actually there! I didn't really fancy placing an order after that as if there was any issues I won't be able to get in touch. I have read on other forums about them and apparently they don't reply to their emails either!

Have you used this company before? any experiences?

Other than that I'm back to square one!

Thanks, Matt.

Hi there,

I would reccomend buying them from this link

[url="http://www.ebuyer.com/product/164383"]http://www.ebuyer.com/product/164383[/url]

Ebuyer is very reliable and i've had no problem buying anything from them before, in fact my whole £800 pc setup turned up the next day here fine, also my friend had to return a motherboard there once, and they were very helpful. :)

Aria.co.uk do an NVision + Avatar bundle: [url="http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Gadgets/Consoles+and+console+accessories/NVIDIA+3D+VISION+KIT+-+AVATAR+EDITION+?productId=39563"]http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Gadgets/Con...productId=39563[/url]

I buy quite a few things form there, and they're usually quite cheap and reliable. I even had something break in transit once (Post man decided it was going to fit through my letter box no matter how big it was.... /confused.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':confused:' /> ), and had a replacement with me in a few days, all transport arranged by them.

Hi,

Thanks for the replies but I already have the 3D Vision kit it is only the spare glasses that I am after. I want a second pair of glasses but I don't want to buy the whole kit again! Pixmania have the spare glasses set listed at £71 or something like that which is a lot cheaper than paying £120 for a second complete kit.

The glasses are listed on nVidias USA site at $149 but by the time they are posted over here via a redirect service (because nvidia won't ship to the UK) it will end up costing a fortune

/confused.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':confused:' />

Any more ideas? Can't believe even ebay doesn't have any!

Does no one else have two sets of glasses?

Thanks, Matt.

Unfortunately I have already looked at pixmania. Have been looking there for the last week and everytime their stock is 'Due' the date just gets put back a couple more days. I guaranteee that if you look at pixmania in two days it will say stock due in another two days.

I phoned them and they said they didn't know if they were ever getting anymore in and so wouldn't take a pre-order.

I have had a pair on order from Pixmania since before Christmas. They arrived today, so Pixmania must have received some stock.

They cost me £60 plus VAT.
