Sighh...I called both Macy's Chanel counters near me, both had never heard of the Byzance de Chanel collection, but they told me Fall would be out June 13th. I called Nordstroms, and the SA was like oh yeah we're getting that!!!! but then she gave me the same June 13th date, so I'm pretty sure she thought I meant the Fall collection. I even emailed Chanel CS asking if it was coming out in the US/if normal department store counters were getting it. All the reply said is that "it will be out some time in early June." No response as to whether it will be at counters or not. If anyone has gotten a better response, please let me know!
RAHG. Oh well, either I can find it online or I won't get it, which in the long run is probably for the best since it's not that unique and I'm not even a huge fan of the EU formula. It just all looks so pretttyyyy.....

OK, I tried searching the Chanel web site to see if there's hope for me. I went to the store locator and searched for locations that had "Les Exclusifs de Chanel"... I'm not sure what qualifies as an exclusive, but if this collection does, then it should be available at one of my local counters... pllllllllleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssseee

The lady I just spoke to at Chanel.com said there was a delay getting the Byzance de Chanel products but they should be online around June 29. lol Who knows~!
awesome! thank you so much! i look forward to seeing it!^^ Sure.
katred - yup I'm puzzled why chanel uses the promo pic which makes the colours look unappealing. They are much much prettier in person.
The red blush looks amazing! The only international site from which I can order Chanel from Germany is garden.co.uk. Anyone knows, if it's possible that they'll have this collection? I doubt it to be honest, since they didn't even seem to have the quint from the spring colection.

omgosh - I just called Chanel CS & it was the ultimate in confusion
She told me that there are 3 different Byzantine collections. It won't be online only Boutique - but then when I complained, she said well maybe it will be online & she didn't know any time frame!!! Holy Cow

Alisha -- those swatches look great -- I am dying to see what the lippie looks like on!
What is up with the confusion on the release dates? I can't believe that Chanel customer service doesn't even know the diff between the Byzantine and the Fall collection release dates!
Maybe we need to ALL complain and tell them to get their act together!! haha

Par for the course, right? I did specify when I asked that I meant the collection with the red JC and the red lipstick...and she did repeat the actual names of those products when she told me end of June. But does that mean she had or gave accurate info? Not necessarily.omgosh - I just called Chanel CS & it was the ultimate in confusionShe told me that there are 3 different Byzantine collections.

This is unbelievable! Does anyone have a clue?
As usual, we know more than they do! I can't seem to reach anyone at the Nordie's counter - but I'll keep trying. Elegant, is your Saks lady still there?
I might be able to reach the Saks lady I dealt with in Boston at one time - she seemed to be pretty with it. I'll have to find her card.

Oh - so I called BG & she was so confused too - thought I was talking about the $250 gold compact - not the new gold highlighter JC

I just called my SAKs gal - she is on vacation
I should call Chanel CS like 10 times & log what they tell me each time & then send it back to them in an email - just to make a point

OK! Found someone with some information!
Shipping delays from France have caused a delay from the original 'go live' date of June 1. They are now expecting to go live ONLINE on June 29th, but I would start checking around the 15th, when stock is expected to arrive. Me, I'll be checking before that. Costs are as follows:
Topkapi quad: $65 USD
JCs (Rouge, Gold): $43 USD each
RA in Byzantin: $32 USD
