About Specscart.

Written by the company

Specscart.

Specscart is one of the fastest-growing eyewear startups in the UK. With three physical stores in Manchester and an e-commerce website, we bring 2000+ fashionable eyewear styles made in the UK at unbeatable prices and deliver them in a record-breaking time of 24 hours.

Like superheroes, our brand also has an inspiring origin. Okay, it didn’t involve any radioactive spider bites, but it“s a lot more relatable. Our founder, Sid, broke his eyeglasses just one day before his semester exams. Wandering through Manchester City Centre in search of a replacement, he encountered only overpriced or mediocre options. The glasses he fancied were locked behind high-security displays, priced steeply at over £150. After reluctantly paying a small fortune without the chance to properly try them on, the glasses arrived—too late for his exams. Hope was lost here, but direction and purpose were found.

Sid realised that eyewear, much like shoes, should come with options that cater to different needs and occasions without breaking the bank or compromising on quality. Driven by this idea, Sid envisioned a brand where selecting glasses would be as enjoyable and straightforward as choosing a pair of shoes for different occasions—hence our tagline, “A Frame for Every Game.“

This vision gave rise to Specscart: an award-winning startup, on a mission to revolutionise the eyewear industry by changing the way people perceive glasses, from being a tool of sight correction to a sustainably made fashion accessory, that is a true joy to wear.

OUR PROMISE

At Specscart, we make a commitment to never sell anything that we wouldn’t buy ourselves. This means you receive essential upgrades like anti-glare, anti-UV, anti-scratch, and impact-resistant coatings on all glasses at no extra charge. Plus, every order comes complete with a protective case, designer cleaning cloth, cleaning solution, and a screwdriver. To ensure your vision is at its best, Specscart offers free eye tests for everyone at all our retails stores.

Great service however they need to…

Great service however they need to reduce the price of thinner lenses especially when the frame chosen needs a thinner lens or alternatively, not let you scroll on through the process and place an order only to get a call the next day recommending thinner lenses but you'll have to pay extra

Excellent Service

An amazing service, and customer services could not be more helpful. I placed my order on Monday after losing my glasses over the weekend and I had my new pair on the Wednesday! Will definitely be purchasing from them again and recommending to friends!

Fast delivery as promised but you sent the wrong frames nothing like the ones I ordered but I need to keep them because I can’t drive without glasses. Did report it but heard no more. I am ready to order more perhaps someone could ring me. Thanks Peter

Very pleased

Took a little longer than I'd hoped, but was very pleased with my re-glazed sun glasses, and much cheaper than the high street chain some people say 'should have gone to'.

Fab, speedy service from a UK based company.

Need a new prescription pair of sunglasses last minute but ones that wouldn't cost a small fortune either and happened upon Specscart, bought the purple Brooke pair and as promised the glasses were ordered and shipped within 24 hours. Very chuffed to see that this is a Bury based company - I have family there! Will definitely be ordering again whenever my prescription changes.

Thank you for a great offering.

Absolutely incredible service as always. I had to get my lenses changed/glazed, I sent them off on a Friday morning and received them back finished on the following Tuesday! I’ve been using them for a few years now to change lenses of old glasses and they always do a brilliant job and never had any issues.

Excellent Service!

The person I spoke too this afternoon at about 14.10 was amazingly helpful. I had broken my varifocals and understanding that they coul not replace in my time frame - holiday in 3 days time, I asked if they could pruduce single vision in 24 hrs. Yes, checked frame and lens stock ws good so I placed the order online. Received acknowledgement at 14.14 and confirmation of dispatch at 16.55. Incredible service thank you.

I cannot recommend Specscart high enough

I cannot recommend Specscart highly enough. From start to finish, the customer service from Kapil and Johnathan was absolutely outstanding. They went above and beyond to make sure my glasses were exactly as I wanted them, taking the time to personally liase with the workshop who made sure the frames and the lens colour tint was just perfect.

Nothing ever felt like too much trouble. They were patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making sure I was completely happy with my purchase. It's rare to find a company that takes such pride in both its products and its customer service.

The quality of my glasses is excellent, and thanks to the team's dedication and attention to detail, they are exactly what I had hoped for. If you're looking for a company that truly values its customers and is willing to go the extra mile, I would highly recommend Specscart.

Thank you to everyone involved – you've provided one of the best customer service experiences I've had.

Thank you for such a kind and generous review.

It means a great deal to read this, because the experience you described is exactly the kind of care we want every customer to feel. Glasses are personal, and when there are specific details involved, it really does take patience, communication and pride from the whole team to get them right.

I will make sure Kapil, Johnathan and the workshop team see your words. They will be genuinely touched to know their effort made such a difference.

Thank you again for trusting us with your glasses.

We look forward to serving you soon.
