I'm sorry Was it someone from Specktra?

 

[Anitacska]

Well, nothing has arrived. I've contacted my bank and it looks like they're going to give me a refund so I should at least get my money back. I am still really disappointed tbh, especially as it had Parrot e/s and I've wanted it for so long.

It's good that you can get your money back at least. If it was someone from Specktra, you should name and shame them. Can you leave feedback for them?

Yeah, it was.

Australian user named iheartmakeup. I've informed one of the admins who is trying to look into it - but everyone has given her good feedback and received their items which is why I'm just so confused about it. She seems like a nice girl, but she doesn't come on often enough to reply to messages so I've been left in the dark with no package arriving. Maybe she has sent it and it's been lost or at customs, I don't know but it's been nearly a month since she said she re-sent it and nothing has arrived and no other messages from her. It's depressing. I'm back on my hunt for Parrot

 

[Anitacska]

I know her. She used to have a blog, Too Much Blush. She used to live in England for a while. Em or Emily I think she was called. I once bought something from her blog sale and it was a bit weird, she never responded, but the package turned up eventually.

Yeah, it was.

Yeah. Em is what I know of her as. How long did it take for your package to turn up? If it does show up I don't mind re-paying at all, but going this long I didn't think it'd be wise to leave it any longer especially as paypal refused to even deal with the issue as it had been over 45 days.

 

[Anitacska]

I'm not sure, a week and a half maybe? But she was still in the UK then. It was just weird because I e-mailed her a couple of time to ask if she had posted it and she never replied, and it was the same with another blogger I know. It was all fine in the end, just very unprofessional.

Well I suppose at least you got your items.

I've managed to get what seems to be an authentic Parrot off the US eBay. Paid double retail which annoys the hell out of me but I'm desperate for that shade. Hope it's worth it. Suppose if not I could re-sell it on here to try and recoup at least some of my money.

 

[Anitacska]

It seems Debenhams are starting to put up the new Mac collections.

And I was looking at the Mac lipsticks and noticed they still have LE ones like Force of Love (!), Dish It Up, Watch Me Simmer and Runaway Red in case anyone's interested!

 

[rockin]

So I see Styleseeker is out today. Which other collections are we expecting? I've lost track.

Most importantly, are any coming out which are MAC online only? I'd hate to be waiting for them to appear at Debenhams or HoF and miss out.

This was posted on the Early buzz thread, don't know how accurate it is. Also we think Project RF might actually be Ruffian Ok, this is a long list but I just had a chat with Mac UK and they named some stuff I know nothing of (and apparently they neither): Me: Hi Sarah! Could you tell me what collections are coming out in the UK in September? Sarah: STYLESEEKER Sarah: HAUTE & NAUGHTY TOO BLACK LASH Sarah: CREMESHEEN + PEARL Sarah: "M·A·C VIVA GLAM 6 mths" Sarah: "OFFICE HOURS Sarah: "PROJECT RF ONLINE ONLY" Sarah: "M·A·C FACE AND BODY Sarah: MIDDLE EASTERN LIPSTICKS Sarah: "NEW ACCESSORIES Sarah: "SPRING 2013 TREND LIP & EYE PALETTES ONLINE ONLY" Sarah: "ILLUSTRATOR BAG COLLECTION ONLINE ONLY" Sarah: "FY13 GO SEES ANNIVERSARY FSS + ONLINE ONLY" Sarah: "PRO LIP PALETTE PRO ONLY ONLINE TBC)" Sarah: ELECTRIC COOL EYE SHADOW (again ?) Sarah: Above are the following Collections coming out in September Me: What are Project RF and Middle Eastern lipsticks? And Go Sees? Sarah: Go Sees are MASCARA KIT, PREP + PRIME KIT, FOUNDATION KIT Sarah: Project RF is relaunching products that have been discontined I think Sarah: Im not sure what Middle Eastern Lipsticks are as I do not have any information on that collection I am afraid Me: Ok. Do you know if and when By Request and Ruffian are coming out? Sarah: By Request will be out online only on the 4th October Sarah: and we will not be getting the Ruffian Collection in the UK only in the US

Thanks, Anita - I'd best get working on my list, ready for when everything is up. Fingers crossed that Project RF is Ruffian - I really want the gold one.

Thankfully quite a bit of what I want is going to be permanent, so I don't have to buy it all at once

Nothing seems to be up on HoF yet. I would prefer to order from them as I get more points on my card that way, even though cashback is low. Debenhams cashback is just 3% at the moment

 

[Anitacska]

Have you been using Topcashback lately? None of my last 4 orders (Debenhams x 2, Boots and HoF) gone through, I'm really cross. I don't know why. Debenhams owe me over £10 in cashback!

Thanks for reminding me - my Boots one hasn't tracked. All my Debenhams ones have, though, usually same day. I always clear my cookies before going into TCB and on to Debenhams or wherever. I haven't actually ordered anything from HoF recently, because Debenhams have had good cashback offers.

If you haven't already, go into Customer Care - Cashback Claims, and lodge claims for any that are over a couple of weeks old that haven't tracked.

 

[Anitacska]

Yeah, I have done that. The weird thing is, I actually used different computers when I placed 2 of the orders, Also I'd never cleared my cookies before, so I don't know why it should suddenly be a problem.
