How much do 3D glasses cost?

Question

A while back, when you went to see a 3D movie in Bogotá, there was the cost of the film and the glasses were thrown in for free. Then, at some cinemas, they started to collect the glasses after the showing. Tonight, I was charged $2,000 for my glasses, that is about 1 dollar US.

Do you pay for 3D glasses? Where are you and how much? I can't imagine that in the UK as little as 70p is charged...

Answer 1

It depends. If you are a cyclops it will be very expensive. If not, then it has to do with how far apart your eyes are set in your skull.

Answer 2

In Puerto Rico they just charge more for the 3D movies ( $3 sounds about right) and then you have to return the glasses. It was the same deal in Florida and New York, last time I was there.

Answer 3

In Germany, they cost 1€.

They look better than the ones you get here! - afowen, Feb 1, 2011

Answer 4

The same deal here in the US. When they started showing them at like Disney and whatnot there was no charge for the glasses. Now at the local theatre they have a "glasses rental fee" of like $3 US. I've stopped getting the popcorn to make up the difference, but now I'm having a neat movie experience but no popcorn! :s

Here, when you buy them, you keep them. And when you go again it's fine to bring your own, they carry a separate charge. It varies from cinema to cinema though - some you buy some you don't. And you pay between USD 2 and 10 depending on where you go - afowen, Jan 31, 2011

For the film that is, not the glasses... - afowen, Jan 31, 2011

For my wife and I it's like just under $20 and we can't keep the glasses. I think we might be getting a raw deal! - estudiante9871, Feb 1, 2011

Answer 5

In NC, USA we have to pay for the movie and then $3 for a 3D "experience fee. You have to return thre glasses after the movie. They have a divice in them that makes an alarm sound if you don't....

I didn't realize that they had an alarm device; I hadn't tried to walk off with a pair! - estudiante9871, Feb 1, 2011
