I bought a couple of t-shirts there. Does that qualify me for the shades?

Why didn't they just send you the glasses in the mail instead of sending a letter saying you are going to get free glasses?

No but they'll sell you a bike for $1,000 off MSRP and Harley doesn't do that either.

It's a marketing ploy. They want to get you in their door in the hopes that once there you'll see something besides the free sunglasses that you just have to have. I do it all the time with my new customers in the hopes that I can turn them into frequent (or at least repeat) customers.
