QUOTE(advocado @ Nov 18 2012, 02:16 AM) But everytime i passby those shop no customers one, not including those in prime shopping malls la, like very remote or secluded areas for example Scotts garden 2nd floor, that area hardly got shoppers walk around. Expenses should be at least 7k a month so how they sell so many specs/contacts to even cover the cost? pasar malam , road show, school link...And if the margin is really that high, cost rm30 sell few hundred then other shops will be competitive already especially online private sellers. |

1000% profit is really crazy, i doubt there are many business out there that can do 100% profit or even 50%.

Spec are in high prices , due to our costing also higher compare to others business . eg : computer refractometer might cost a around RM30k Machinery inside refraction room might cost around RM30k Machinery to cut lens might cost RM100k Rental , Optical shop have to be rent at place which is obvious , meanwhile rental sure exceed > RM8k Round-up if you want to own a optical shop . RM400k capital is a must . ** unless you running a low end optical shop . |

QUOTE(DarkNite @ Nov 18 2012, 08:12 AM) interesting and useful info, many thanks! BL is from USA, last time ray ban is from usa then company bankrupt or something and italy bought over...nowdays all the ray ban is from italy if i am not mistaken...this is what i learn when i was working part time la....from italy is label RB...its engraved to the lens at the right side if i am not mistaken...like a signature...need to look closely to notice...some prefer the USA models due the the lens quality thats why some people are still finding BL models but its super hard...limited old stock only left...BTW wat is BL? and how to know wat wat grade is the RayBan? its not easy to know about grade AA and original...just like perfume got grade AA also...very hard to smell the difference since they smell the same. if you deal with ray ban many times then only you can know the difference by the look and feel of it... |

rest assured the earlier kids are exposed to gadgets and pressure to perform in school (aka more classes at earlier tender age of 3 /4 )...... prelavence of shortsightedness will increase.
And dont forget those getting older majority will need reading glasses as well. |
