6 months, $585 and I still don't have my glasses. – I have never been treated worse by a New York business in the thirteen years I've lived here. Six months ago, both my friend and I purchased a pair of frames from the Selima store on Madison Avenue. They were custom orders?to get a frame in a particular color that the store didn't stock?so they told us the wait would be two months. We waited. Two months later. I called to inquire about the status of my order. No call back. I called again?"Oh, they're not in yet. We'll call ... read more
Dissapointed – While the frames are fun and stylish, I'm disappointed with the service. I don't mind spending a lot for a great frame. The owner herself was helping me, and I tried on several pairs when I came to one I liked. She immediately said I should buy them and really wanted to make the sale. I realized later (when I got another pair of frames that actually fit me correctly somewhere else), that she did not bother to tell me that the nose bridge was way too small for my nose and did not sit comfortably on my face afte... read more
Intense Improvements – I have been shopping at Selima Optique for over seven years. I'm a fan to the frames she designs herself, as well as the vintage styles she has. For the past couple of years I began shopping at other places. Her staff wasn't as top notch and welcoming, and the jobs they were doing were lousy. I thought, 'if I'm spending this much money on my frames, shouldn't I deserve amazing customer service, as well?' I was fed up with the store, so I took a break. About four months ago I stepped foot in Selima Opti... read more
Was once on my do not miss list.... not anymore – I used to find the service at Selima top notch. Each time I visited New York, I'd go an inevitebly buy a pair of glasses. While her glasses were unique at one point--nothing has changed in ten years. No advancement, no changes, just more of the same, without the level of service she once had the market cornered on. I guess most of her staff left for better jobs.
its not 1990 anymore – I guess this store used to be cool. I'm not sure--but its sure not cool anymore. A mix of independent brands with big names like armani. What is this trying to achieve? The staff knew nothing about the stock of glasses, just sat there barely able to speak english. I don't know what happened. I wouldn't ever go back. Its not what it used to be thats for sure.
Wonderful experience!!!! – It was the best experience i had, people great you, help you, smile, and even dance when they like the music playing..... they have an incredible selection of brands, and the best is Selima Optique: huge range of shapes and colors..... they have everything to please any kind of desire......
Best Optical Store in New York City – Best Optical store!!!! So cool, so elegant, I finally walked in to Selima Optique after reading so much about it in the press and having most of my friends wear these cool glasses i had to make sure the next time i was in New York City to visit this boutique. The visit was absolutly worth it! When you entered the boutique and saw the 18th century oil paintings hanging off the 14 foot high persimon red wall. You feel like you have gone back in time, but suddenly you are reminded that this... read more
What happened to this store? – This used to be my favorite store in New York, but its really lost its charm and character. I used to be helped by Selima, but now there are non-english speaking staff that know nothing about glasses.
I LOVE Selima Optique!!! – I LOVE Selima Optique! a quick note about my experience at Selima Optique. I arrived, welcomed and taken care of right away by a smiling gentleman. He took great care of me and listened to me, and my needs. He recommended 5 pairs and I asked to try 4 more that I liked, but he was right about what looked good, felt comfortable and matched my colors! Selima happen to be there (at least I think it was her, super sweet and she also helped out!) I was not there to shop really but ended up getting one pa... read more
