Hope you get the job! Maybe another restock will magically happen!
I'm tottally wishing for magic...I hope this time they stock the canadian site! Both times I was able to put the moxie in my cart because it automatically goes to the us site...then when I tried to checkout it drops moxie out of the cart cuz it realizes I'm in canada! So cruel...

Yes, I know they did. And I agree, what did they have...a stock of 50? Or just people buying up a stores worth. Frankly I was surprised they 'restocked' so soon so it doesn't really surprise me that it would sell out so fast. I feel as if this was a mini-restock and a possible REAL restock will happen a bit later. They really need to find a way to limit people only being able to buy 3 per order. It would help.

Ok, while I do this it's selfish to buy 10 CYY I also think MAC should have enough stock that people can buy 10, 2, or 4. I feel stock should last AT LEAST 24 hrs! I guess it's hard to predict, but come on! BY REQUEST!

First post! :)

I've been a long time lurker and happy to finally register and discuss makeup with everyone!

I was able to snag all three when they first released, they won't be here until Monday though.

Does anyone mind swatching Moxie and Girl About Town? If they are very similar, I want to give my backup to my best friend.
Also, if anyone also has Dear Diary, do they mind swatching with the new CYY? I saw the post about the color being different then the one that was released last year.

Thanks Specktrettes! You guys are the best, I've learned so much since finding this forum.

By any chance is there anyone out there who has a CYY from the Quite Cute release that would want to swap for the CYY from this release?? :) (fingers crossed!!) Feel free to PM me if you do!

I doubt these are similar. GAT is way pink and people are saying Moxie is more red.

Thank you for saying this. I was beginning to feel uncomfortable with some of the comments on here about people who buy more than 2 or 3 of a color. Rocker has been my HG, everyday go to for years. I wear this lipstick at least 4-5 days a week pretty much year round which means I can go through it pretty quickly. I stocked up when it was discontinued as I didn't think it would ever come back and it is one of the colors that has never been re-promoted.

I ordered 4. If I can get more, I will. These are strictly for personal use. Piapreet frequently wears CYY and goes through a tube fairly quickly. She is NOT someone who hoards and sells on Ebay. People don't need to criticize or be snarky. We wouldn't do that to someone else.

Yeah the Instagram thing is nuts. I posted a pic on IG with my own $0.02 on eBay scalping and the girl who now has 10 CYY got nasty and catty on me. I was like whatever lady! Spend that eBay money on drugs for all I care. I blocked and deleted her so Smh. She who dies with the most CYY is still ugly on the inside. To each their own!!

do restocks ever happen in the middle of the night? i'm kinda wondering if i need to stalk all evening/night/dawn/morning/etc....
i'm usually not that keen on things i miss on the initial launch, but this one i kinda missed for personal reasons so i'm pretty bummed!

Hopefully, everyone is referring to people that resell for profit and not die hard fans! I have NO qualms with you buying 4 or 20 for personal use. Seriously! It's just a bummer that MAC didn't anticipate rabid fans along with the rabid ebayers that neeeeed these lippies! Hopefully they do a full restock and not just these dinky little ones.

I can see that if I was a fan and I didn't get ONE lippie in the color I wanted but someone got 10, I would be upset but it seems like misplaced anger. I think the anger needs to be towards MAC not a lover of MAC

hmm, as far as I remember, they have been early in the morning, afternoon and dinner time but I don't remember a restock after that...
