I enjoy reading threads where people honestly share what worked and what failed for them. On the other hand, a well made pair of glasses can last a long time and feel comfortable all day. It makes it easier to compare with an old pair of glasses that already fits well. A product that still looks good after a few months is more impressive than something only good on arrival. Of course shipping delays can happen, but good communication reduces stress. That is why I sometimes leave comments myself when I test a new shop or product.
If anyone is interested in real user experiences, I sometimes write short notes about the shops I test.

If they ignore basic questions or reply with copy pasted text, I become suspicious. Recently I have been testing several online eyewear shops to compare frames and lenses. Bad lenses can cause eye strain, reflections and headache when you wear them for hours. I think sharing honest feedback helps other buyers avoid the same mistakes. I also like when stores show real photos without heavy editing or strange angles. The same is true for metal versus acetate frames for glasses.
Just sharing my personal feedback.
