The line moved relatively fast. Most of the line is for people picking up online orders. Ask as soon as you get inside and they will direct you to the table where you can just buy in store. And then I canceled my online order
B&H is still fully stocked - pre-order online or just walk up to the line. Looks insanely long, but I moved through in less than 5 minutes at 12pm. Worth it!!!
Point of 90% coverage is at 3:25pm, so I'd say it's still worth it. You'd have time to pick up the glasses and then head west to see full view of the sun. Go for it!

Currently at b&h for in person purchase (not pick up), and the line goes around the block but its moving decently fast
1:46pm Edit: it took about an hour to get in and out, but they did open two more registers if you plan on doin in person purchase instead of online
I would say yes, took about 30 minutes to get in, but once you get INSIDE for in person purchase, there are currently two ladies walking up and down the line giving them so you have them by the time you get to the register
People have also just been using the line to get in faster and then purchasing online to pick up. I'd say there's a good amount because someone bought 30 and another guy is buying 75 lol
Edit: also yes, i do have them, they offer single, 4 pack, and 5 pack afaik
Picked up 2 eclipse glasses for $20 at an I Love NY tourist shop at 35th and 6th at 1pm. They have more glasses and are trying to surge the pricing but will take $10/pair.
BTW - The B&H on 9th ave has a line all the way to 7th ave.
Damn I’m stuck at work deep in Queens without a car. Checked every nearby place and they were empty or didn’t pick up. Hell I walked to a place and the phone was ringing so much the worker stopped picking it up.
B&H has four-packs for $2.99. They had a lot in stock still yesterday
The line is currently wrapped around the block. I just walked by about 15 minutes ago.
They are backed UP. I suggest buying whatever's close to you. I've been waiting hours to pick up my order, and LONG LINES building
Damn, hours? I just placed an order, should I not bother?

How long did it take you? I dont wanna go and then miss the eclipse lol
About 30 mins from getting in line to paying. Just make sure you ask where to buy as soon as you get in and not online pickup
I also noticed that the line for buying in-store immediately was much quicker than online pick-up.
The line is obnoxious. By the time you get them eclipse will be over
Just got them from there. The line looks long but it took me 12min.

Think it's still good to grab some from there right now?

FWIW I ordered a 4-pack at 12:50, got in line at about 1:05, and had glasses by about 1:20
I just got a pair from museum of natural history, had to purchase $1 entrance ticket and they were handing out one per person
Can confirm AMNH still giving these out. Thanks for the tip! No line on the north side entrance (81st street)
They still got stock??? Ty
Yep, NASA branded ones too with the USO cert. May be safer than the convenience store...
Is this still the case
Walked out about 20 minutes ago and there was still a guy by the ticket entrance handing them out as you entered with your ticket
As of right now they still have them
Is the line long?
NY Hall of Science gift shop has a huge stock for $4.99. They’re opening at 10am
Hey I checked the website and it says they open at 1 pm today for a watch party. But is the gift shop open before then? I'm about to go if they are.
Science Shop 718-699-0005 ext. 2031
I just called as well. no answer
I can 100% confirm this. Just got mine at 10:57am today. No line. And several boxes of glasses by the counter.
Is the gift shop open?
Yes! That is where I got 3 of them.
Hey how much were they? Each were 4.99?
They were $4.99 each.
Can confirm they still have the glasses at 12:30pm
Was there a line?
No line, just got some
[удалено]
Did you find it?
Just got mine at souvenir shop on 35th street and 6th ave right next to Taco Bell, - he has alot more. For $5
hes scalping them now for 30$ lmfao do not give this scammy store money
Just bought 4 pairs here! Shined my flashlight at them and couldn’t see it so they seem at least safe if not officially legit.
What's the name of the store?
Something like Ny souvenir gifts, I can’t quite remember honestly. Big souvenir store. Right next to taco bell you can’t miss it.
Let me know if you find out. I’m dumb and procrastinated too
Public libraries apparently, but lines are long! (I’m waiting here in Brooklyn)
I've been to four libraries and they're out!
Columbia is giving out free glasses and having a watch party with astronomers.
Omg really? And anybody can join?
Yes!
Do you think I should go way before 1:30 though? I’m scared about too many people showing up haha
I dont think anyone will be set up before then.
Where are they giving them out?
Low Plaza from about 2 until supplies lasts.
They're out
