They must not have had very much in stock at all. Last I checked, only Dish It Up, Runaway Red, and Innocence Beware were left as far as lipsticks go. I think I'll be good and not go to Ebay for NS. I have tons of lipsticks and another cool pink wouldn't be unique to my collection.

It might be ebayers who purchased all of them in such a short time. Oh well...

I am not seeing innocence beware,it says sold out. Thank god for my back order with Nordstrom I finally got quick sizzle, which I do not think I need a BU of,especially that I got pink pigeon and I do have candy yum yum which I hope they will repromote. That lipstick is the bomb. I really want a backup of watch me simmer,but will wait for reel sexy. Someone mentioned on specktra that stores were getting shipments,so I will check my store,who knows. When did they even restock was it last night or early morning.

Okay, it must've sold out in the last few minutes. I can relax on this collection now and pick up a quad a little bit later. I'll have to stalk earlier for future collections. I've been refreshing for weeks and still didn't get all I wanted.

The safest way is probably to order everything on the day (or evening) of the release. Restocking seems so arbitrary that makes it really hard to catch something - unless you spend 24/7 refreshing the website.

Can't believe it,I wonder if they restocked on midnight? I missed out again. They must've had a lil amount. That sucks!

You're right. I was on the fence for WMS at the time, so I didn't get it, and then regretted it. Now I've ordered it and hopefully I got it before it went out of stock. I do wish they would order more stock on what are sure to be popular items though. It restocked today when I was coming home for lunch, so I missed at least the first ten minutes of things being back in stock.

My thoughts exactly. The fact that they didn't make enough lipsticks to meet the demand, but seemed to have more than enough of those stupid sticker sets is fucking comical. Really? What do they think their customers would rather have: The lipstick or a sticker of the lipstick they couldn't buy? That is just bad business and a sign that someone at MAC did not think things through.

Ha! There are indeed more stickers around that lippies. Oh boy...

Nope, it was posted when they restocked. It took 2 wks practically to restock it seems like 10 lipsticks in each shade. Rather annoying.
wow,that is so like them. So,it was only available a few mins then,that's craZy. Another iris apfel incident. Smh.

I've been hitting refresh like 25+ times a day for weeks and I missed it. I'm seriously over it. If I don't get what I want the first time, I'm just going to move on the next collectionl. I hate wasting my time. They shouldn't have put the status as "coming soon" and not restock for over 2 weeks. They shouldve changed it to "coming soon" yesterday.

The same thing pretty much happened to me. I've refreshed a million times and just happened to check when I got home for lunch and got a few of the items I wanted. I agree that having "coming soon" for weeks is almost like false advertising. "Coming eventually" would fit better.

It's so true, though. I feel like the low stock has been an issue for a long time, and yet I keep stalking and buying anyway. I think I'll have to give myself a policy of buying the first time around and not getting my hopes up for a restock. I have better things to do than refresh multiple times a day only to get the same message for two weeks, only to have a 10 minute window to buy when it does come back in stock! I just can't bring myself to give Ebay $25 for a MAC lipstick! I'll just save my money or get a Chanel one instead.

No the sign on the items should say "coming soon... but just not to you, try EBAY instead"
