Stock Shortages
seriously what is up with mac? grr im sooo angry

EVERYTIME i go to my counter for something its always out of stock

its happened with
- select cover up concealer
- studio fix fluid foundation
- select moisturecover concealer
- painterley paint pot
- steamy nail laquer
- blacktrack fluidline
-- bare study paint pot
- beige-ing shadestick
- volcanic ash exfoliator (i know this was limited edition but i bought it the thursday it came out and used it twice and decided i loved it so went back to get another one and it was sold on on the monday which was frustrating)

i know most of the items are pretty 'neutral' so will appeal to more people but its like beyond a joke now i HATE havin to go back everytime i pass and ask i feel like such a idiot.
its also incredibly frustrating as i dont want to buy twice of everything to make sure i get it and when i run out i dont have to wait months for it i shudn't have to.


does this happen to anyone else or is it just my counter? lol

also there may a reason for this but if somethings sold out i can understand why they leave it on display as it could get forgotten about and not put back on display when it comes back into stock but why not put those little labels they have on the limited edtion stuff sayin 'sold out' why not put them on ordianry stuff thats sold out so people dont ask???

rant over lol

Re: Stock Shortages
newcastle fenwicks (if thats what luceuk wanted to know!)
i work in the store so get a 20% discount which i can use on mac so i really HATE paying full price when i can get my discount there but may not have it for much longer so want to take advantage as much as i can!

i managed to get a painterly pot at the metro centre counter and didnt really mind paying full price as i desperatley needed it

but like when i went and asked for it i noticed the lip conditioners that they keep next to the till they were all empty apart from like the odd one slotted in

is there serious shortages going on or what lol

i just hate having to keep asking as when they say 'noo its still out of stock' i just feel like screaming lol

Re: Stock Shortages
I've never had this... must be very lucky. The closest I've had is the MAC counter at Stansted telling me they don't stock SFF in NC15 at all, rubbish!!!!

They are having trouble making Golden Bronzing Powder. It is out of stock pretty much everywhere, and nobody knows when they will get any.

Not good news, sorry.
