Have escalated this, but not expecting much. Would be happy with a partial refund, as I'll use 'em anyway.
More interested in others knowing what to expect.
@lou3500: As for $50 being "cheap", I guess you have more disposable income than I. I consider $50 to be relatively pricey for just two lenses, and certainly don't expect to have big chips out of it that didn't happen in shipping.
