I just got my Gucci sunglasses from them today and when they came they popped out with a Safilo group booklet. I was like WTH is this, not a Gucci booklet? But then I found out that Safilo and Luxotica are the manufactuers of all luxury brand sunglasses. This is the real deal here. I believe that Otticanet does truely sell real sunglasses. Here is the company profile of Safilo

Some people will still wonder why anyone would spend $150 or more on a pair of authentic designer sunglasses when for $30 he/she can buy designer inspired or replica sunglasses that look just a same and guarantees the same 100% UV protection. The old saying "You get what you pay for" definitely applies here: yes, UV protection may be the same, but you can't compare the quality of lenses and frames on brand name sunglasses with the cheap ones. To assure the highest quality, all designer sunglasses are crafted by carefully selected manufacturers and tested using the most advanced technology.How could anybody seriously think that a small sunglass factory located somewhere in China could create exact the SAME quality frames and lenses as biggest sunglasses manufacturers like Safilo (Gucci, Dior, YSL, Valentino) or Luxottica (Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, Ferragamo, Burberry)? Remember, the quality of lens relates to quality of vision: cheap replica sunglasses often have distorted areas which according to the specialists, could lead to eyestrain. Another benefit of a high-quality lens is that it will be optically correct which eliminates depth perception problems that could cause terrible headaches and blurred vision.
