3D vision extra glasses Has anyone purchased or believe they are overpriced?
I was really anxious to purchase some additional glasses but the $149 price is a little more than I am willing to let go of.....if they were $99 I would have done it (since I really want 2 extra pairs).

Has anyone else went ahead and purchased or is the price keeping you from getting them?

The price is exactly what's keeping me from buying some extra pairs.

They are 250$ each here.

You've got to be kidding me.

99 sounds about right.

Any other opinions???

I am hoping to give some feedback to Nivdia so maybe they drop the price or give a better price to get multiple pairs....its worth a shot right?

Wow, $150.... I'm glad I only paid $20 for my Shutter Glasses that work great on my 9600GT on my DLP Projector + CRT Monitor.

Yeah, they are still a bit pricey, but they are of better quality than the other shutter glasses. They have bigger lenses and seem to have less ghosting than my old e-dimensional glasses.

Yep. Too much. It would be great if it's priced about 50 bucks a pair then I can get 2. With the current price I'd rather pay another 50 additional bucks and get the whole set just in case the old emitter goes dead.

Well they finally have the shutter glasses at my place of work, so I grabbed an extra pair on my staff discount.

Not 99$ but, much better than 250-299, which is what they cost here retail.

Now my wife and I can enjoy 3d together, in high quality..

Next is to find a 52+ inch DLP t.v and stick 3d vision on there !! :D

There is a pair on ebay right now for $99 buy it now. I bought a pair from this seller and it is fine. It does not come with the extra nose pieces, which are pretty handy if you wear glasses.

I won't be buying an extra set for that price. I'm tired of the greed and that is what this is at $150.00. At $250 it should be considered criminal. :ph34r: It's like they are milking it for all they can now before they drop it altogether and move on to a "better" system. I was shocked at the price when it came out. They should at least have included some vaseline. :">

Thanks for the tip. The seller (Aspen Media) has a perfect record. I ordered mine yesterday and it shipped today. Asked them and they replied these glasses are brand new in factory plastic bags. Go get it boys, still a few dozen available. Their website listed for 149 but their ebay's 99.
