Sure, I'll PM you if I see a restock. Best of luck!Hmmm, I'll have to be a good member for another little while to access the clearance bin, but thanks for the heads up! ^^ In case they do restock, would anyone mind to mention, just in case?

Are yours even shipped yet? Mine aren't (I placed another order for Strong Woman later on the same day). Ah well, at least we didn't have to pay for the wonderful service this time
I just checked and my status has changed to accepted. I would be most surprised if I were to receive SP before the end of this week... Surely both our SPs will be shipped the same day?

I guess Archie was the distraction that kept them up for so long. I really do not tend to get BU of lippies b/c I have so many I have never used one up however, I did get BU of both PaPa and PiPi (both of which I contemplated skipping originally but get so many compliments I am glad to tried them). I figured the restock was a sign from fate I should BU both.

Nice swatches! I know how you feel about WC because iy looked like Cozy Up on me. WC doesnt wash out your face though.
My NW45 Strenth swatches. AP, SW and WC. I don't usually like Frosts. I'm on the fence with WC

Like you, I very much doubt our goodies will arrive in the next few days. Thursday is the earliest we'll get them.

I really liked WC over Cozy up and I hate frost. FOr me it will be a good layering color.

For what it's worth, I think WC looks really nice on you. It makes me actually want to take a look at that one because I pretty much ignored it.My NW45 Strenth swatches. AP, SW and WC. I don't usually like Frosts. I'm on the fence with WC

Thank you TwistedFaith! It doesn't completely wash me outbut I'm a bold bright lip kinda girl. I'm also on the fence about the VGN2 may just get the lipglass and pass on the stick.

I think so too. Somewhere near the weekend. It doesn't really matter to me. As long as I know I'll get it I'm fine.Oooh, mine have been accepted too! Bless them

Last year I placed a rather big order via MAC UK for the S3C3, Vera and Chenman collections. It took 2 1/2 weeks or more before I got my package and I really CRAVED those goodies. Now that was torture. I'm looking forward to getting SP but I'll live if it takes some time. Nearly died waiting for my best haul so far...

Did you place the order by phone?

Yup. Only it costs 18 pounds to ship, so I only order via UK if I need pro items before I can get to the Pro store in Amsterdam and my orders need to be substantial enough to be worth those shipping costs...I order as a pro member, but I guess non pro members can order there too. I don't know if MRV is a pro?I never knew you could do that!

Plus... you need to take into account that delivery varies from within a week to nearly 3 weeks during new popular releases...

Yeah, it would be worth it only with big orders. And only those products that I'd have no way of getting otherwise. It's still nice to know that the option is available

Yes I got a BU of AP and SW. I already had BU's for PiPi and PaPa. I hope we all get our orders soon. I also placed a second order for Aztec Brick this weekend, I couldn't get it out of my head...

Yes, it is the costly choice and my only choice, it seems, with the upcoming April collections. But, I'm a bit afraid I will end up empty handed if the stuff is sold out while they process my order.Yeah, it would be worth it only with big orders.

This very threat is hanging over my head at this very moment as I await my Strenght black box. This time, however, I managed to order possible BUs for 2 lippies. If they come with the black box, I'll have BUs, and if not, I've got them anyway!

And a lady at Selfridges told me it's also possible to order by phone from the US website for European customers.Join the Specktra family
So, MAC UK is available for non pros too via phone order.
