As someone who wears glasses, I find it annoying to put on 3D glasses on my opticals, they bothered me a great deal while watching Coraline.So I purchased these 3D clip-on glasses and I just recieved them on the mail, a pair of glasses costs $6.95 and you will have to buy a minimum of two pairs at least. I can't wait till I try them next month hopefully Up! will be still showing. I tried them and they fit my glasses comfortably. I tried watching a part of an episode of Chuck in 3D and it looks good.

RealD and IMAX3D uses different technology. The glasses they provide are Polarized, and not the Blue-Red lenses as in the image you posted.

I wear their glasses over mine, and they fit comfortably. Never had an issue yet.

Well it varies from one person to anothr, I felt dicomfortable and it took from my enjoyment of Coraline. That is why I was thinking of getting contact lenses, but when I found those online I bought them in a compulsive move. Anyway they were cheap enough so I won't feel much guilt though shipping was more expensive than the actual things.

As someone who also wears glasses all the time, the conventional 3D glasses (with different lenses) irritated me, but the one's that Shariqq mentions used for IMAX and RealD are much better and highly comfortable. The IMAX ones especially are fantastic (3M after all...), in terms of their fit and covering of the eyes viewing area - I don't how anyone could favor them over clipons..

What bothers me is placing them over my ears, they were discomforting and a little painful especially with my opticals already on. Viewing wise they were actually better than the red-blue glasses.

 Cry i'm so sick!!!

the other day i went to Aramex in Bahrain to pick up 17 shipments of mostly DVDs.most them are shipments that are over a year old but i never managed to pick them up...i kept on delaying.

the thing is...i don't really buy any DVD i want and i don't buy loads to DVDs as many of you might think....OK that's me lying but i'm very picky,i don't buy any DVD i want or any DVD that gets released like many DVD collectors out there.

but i've been collecting DVDs for 8 years and i have loads that i don't really need anymore.i sold many DVDs over the years but not so many ppl buy from me.

what sickens me the most is it's already 2009 and we don't have a very popular successful website that you can sell your crap like ebay.com.i know there are loads of Arab-based websites like ebay.com but they aren't really successful and they don't have many users.if you know of a website that's successful where you can sell your crap in here then let me know.

anyways,i sell loads of DVDs here,if you wanna buy or you know someone who's interested then please send him the link,thanks.

P.S. i give special discount for cuties.

I'm not cute, but I'd certainly like at least a couple of those DVD's.

Here in Dubai, as Oz will tell you, Souq.com reigns supreme....it is an effective medium to buy and sell DVD's, though you have casual buyers there, no collectors from what I can tell. I have myself bought and sold many DVD's in the past, though I don't usually purchase much.

I'm not sure registering on souq will help you...if I'm not mistaken, it only caters, as of this moment, to UAE and Jordan. I think they have a tie-up with Aramex where you can send your goods anywhere using their service, but, but, this may end up costing your buyer more if he's not in KSA...
