I'm not too sure about other counters, but Causeway Bay does most of the time. I intended to buy Petticoat last year, yet by the time I made it there the display (along with Naked You) was already gone and replaced!

Since then, I've always tried to make it to the counters on the first day. IMO, the Causeway Bay counter sells out the fastest due to it's convenient location. People pass by, see the MSF and get sucked into buying it at the end!

I doubt it's to do with knowing ahead because I don't think there are that many HK MAC addicts around that watch Specktra anyway. Unless you happen to ask the MAs though!

You can try visiting the DFS counter in TST, if you pass by.

That counter sells out the slowest, still having some stuff from the Lure collection.

thanks for the tip hun =)
might bump into u at MAC then! LOL!!

oddinary · 08-01-2007, 01:36 AM #5 (**permalink**)

LOL, that'd be pretty cool. I've never met any MAC addicts offline!
And I dooooo hope there are postcards avaliable for this collection!

Oooh, what a dilemma I have. I'm flying back to HK on the 4th from London!
Because of the exchange rate I'm wondering whether I should wait and (a) see if they have it at Gatwick airport, (b) wait and go to the HK counters on the 5th (c) grit my teeth and buy it in London, with the bloody high exchange rate and tax... ;___;

^ Ohh, that's a hard question! I know MAC is expensive there when I tried to buy something at Heathrow and got shocked by the price tag! :P I'm not sure how fast these will go, because I do believe the A Muse MSFs hung around for a week or so. That's relatively long to me, though there were 2 repromotes! Do you know how much the MSFs are there, compared to HKD? I forgot their exact price, but they should be $200 each. Anyway, I'm going to check today and I will let you know later!

Oh what time did you go there? I went there around 1pm today!
Aww, too bad I missed it. But I need to save $$ anyway! How much was it?

charzz · 08-02-2007, 06:02 PM #12 (**permalink**)

I couldn't resist, I bought the Northern Light MSF at Selfridges today!
I'll be cross checking the prices between the duty-free stuff at Gatwick airport and HK, it might just be worth waiting until I land :P

charzz · 08-02-2007, 06:05 PM #13 (**permalink**)

Oh and the MSFs in the UK are a whopping 16.50 pounds :S = $263HKD.

oddinary · 08-03-2007, 01:40 AM #14 (**permalink**)

^ Ack! The price difference is so steep! But at least you got Northern Light, right? It's selling out pretty quickly everywhere!

I was there shortly before 4 pm, and I'm sure you would get that @DFS TST later. Threw away the receipt already, but I guess the price is $240, not sure (baby brush + bag + shimmer powder = good deal ! ! )
