How am I cheaping out on my eyes? Uv protection? Check. Stays in place while running and bicycling? Check. No discomfort after 5 hours on the bicycle? Check.No doubt they're making a killing on the margins, but LOL at people who say a $5 pair from Walmart is the same!
There are a few things in life that just aren't worth going cheap over, one of those is your eyes IMHO.

Keep trying to justify your purchase. In the end you are working your life away for frivolous junk.
I picked up a pair of Maui Jim's yesterday at the outlet mall in Carlsbad. They are polarized and extremely light weight. Paid $179 for them and they were having a 10% off everything in the store sale on top of that.
This is the one I bought. Very happy with them so far. I was looking at Ray Ban because those are what I've had for years but these were the same price but much lighter. They fit my face and don't slide down my nose or move around at all while I'm wearing them. It barely feels like I'm wearing glasses when I have them on but they really cut down on glare when driving.

I'm in the Ray-Ban camp, for both prescription and sunglasses.
I've owner cheapos, Oakleys, Bole, and nothing has come close to the quality/service of Ray-Ban. I'll have to give Maui Jim a shot.
At least Maui Jims are made in the USA.
Did you get gray or yellow lenses? I can't stand the yellow.

You've never put a pair on, then. I spent almost $5k for Lasik, what's another $200-300 on a pair of sunglasses? There is no brand that can compete with the optics quality of MJ's - period. Not Bolle, Oakley or Ray-ban. Your cheap sunglasses have worse polarization on them than 3D glasses.
