Last night I attended an exclusive event at Gaffa's Fine Eyewear boutique on Queen Street. It was OK. Lots of people, style, music, wine and simple snacks.
I was happy to be able to check it out. However, there was one problem, they promoted that there were these swanky gift bags for all attendees valued at $300. 
This obviously got peoples attention. The event was from 7-10.pm I went at 8:30, was told I was "too early for gift bag"by an employee. Annoying. 
So, I went back at 10pm and another girl said "oh we took the rest to Lobby". Like WTF. There was no way I'd be chasing that much! These glasses were my favorite. 
UPDATE: I got an email from Mr. Gaffas and maybe I will buy my glasses there. It was very nice of him to reply to my email. I understand that it was a 'gift' but I was there two times. I went to the event based on a friends recomendation from a far away country. I know it's a great shop with great glasses. I'll let you all know how my store visit goes tomorrow.
