I really can't wait for these to hit Debenhams counters so I can test them out myself along with Altered Beige & Caliente. Hopefully one of my MAC Hauls should be arriving today - but I never feel I can order Lipsticks/Glasses online as I need to try them first. I really struggle to find colours that suit my lips. :S

The first of my MAC orders arrived today - just eyeshadows. Banafsaji is definitely my favourite, although the others are nice too. It definitely looks more purple than blue when I swatch it

I am going to be getting one of the quads from the T.R Collection for sure. If Bare My Soul ever comes back in stock I want to get that one. However, I have not really seen any reviews of the TR Quad. Has anyone ordered this? I'm leaning towards Bare My Soul because I have seen many reviews detailing that it is a "Good" MAC Palette.... I don't want to buy a palette where I can't really work with the shadows...

I missed the postman!

Now I have to wait until tomorrow morning to pick the package up from the sorting office. My card says I have 2 packages, but for the life of mine I can't figure out what the other one is, unless it's a book from Amazon, but that wasn't supposed to arrived until Saturday.

Ugh, I hope so. I can't see any info at all, it just says member since 19th April 2013 and that they're in the UK. Right now this person is bidding on over £200 worth of stuff, would be great if I could actually get the money... I have contacted them and said that new buyers are of course welcome, but they will need to actually pay and if they don't, they will be reported. I haven't heard back at all, which is worrying me a bit, because I think someone genuine would just say of course, I will be paying, but then again, that wouldn't necessarily mean that they would either.

I think its a great idea to choose something you want more than make up and start saving for it! I put down a deposit on my dream holiday in Feb and I am saving and selling as best as I can now to pay for the rest of it! I need all the money by the end of June, Im going to be so close so I decided that I need to pass on the summer collections, feel a little but glum as I do want a couple of things from temperatures rising, but I don't actually need them!

Thanks - I'm sold on that one just for the When In Rio shadow. Still not sure on the other quad.

I've just opened my box of goodies and found that my Skinfinish has Fingerprint marks over it and it looks like it has already been swatched or something. Has anything like this happened to anyone else??

Do you have your settings so that bidders with non payment strikes can't bid, if so this will show who has been prevented from placing a bid and may help to help you work out if it could be her?

Do you have her username, or is she keeping it private?

can I also cheekily ask how you manage to list more than 10 things in Health and Beauty in a 30 day period? does the auctiva tool enable you to get round it?

If they only opened that account on 19th April, they might not have had time to get a non-payment strike yet. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Anita that the winning bidder pays up

There are lots of reports of this on the Extra Dimension thread - the fingerprints appear to have been made during the manufacturing process.

The username is rsa7862013. She won't have a non-paying bidder strike yet, but I was just wondering if it's the same person who also bid, but didn't pay up on your auction, because you said they then used a different username. Oh well, maybe i'm just too paranoid and she's just genuinely a new buyer who will pay up just fine.

I can list more than 10 because I've been selling loads of stuff with good feedback, and asked for the ban to be lifted. I don't use Auctiva at all.


Thanks, Dawn!

well when she used a new username, it was the same as the old just moved the year from the beginning of the user name to the end of the username, it doesn't look anything like the user names she was using so fingers crossed with Dawn that you get a successful outcome!

Was asking them to lift the ban easy?
Everything I want to sell at the moment is BNIB so within guidlines and I have good feedback and no negatives or anything? how did you go about asking? sorry to ask so many questions!

 

[Anitacska]

Okay thanks.

I honestly can't remember now, but I think I e-mailed them when I was trying to list something and it said I had a limit and there was a way to contact them? Just guessing now, sorry. But it was fine, they said okay and now I can list as many as I like.

Thanks. That's made me feel a lot better. I have ordered quite a few items from MAC & this is the first time I've ever experienced something like this - but if it's just a manufacturing flaw I can live with that.

Why do these people do this? It seems to be sort of on the same line as people who generate spam - so pointless, and just ruin the whole thing for everybody

If anyone wants to get the new Real Techniques brushes they are back in stock on iHerb: http://www.iherb.com/Real-Technique...iber-Collection-Limited-Edition-3-Brush/48839 It's also 20% off RT until 10am PDT time (think that's 6pm our time) and if it's your first time ordering you can get 10% off on top of that with the code GQT924 and another 5% off automatically if you spend over 60 dollars. I just placed my order and the shipping was pretty cheap too for DHL express Worked out about £9.50 for the sets so quite a bargain

I ordered mine last monday evening, used dhl express and they arrived in the UK on the thursday and I paid the customs fee then and got them on the friday! was really impressed with iherb, its the first time I had used them! Will definately use them again for Real Techniques purchases, as even with customs fees it was cheaper than buying them here!
i love the powder and blush/contour brush, not so sure on the eye brush, its stiffer than the mac version (286?) and not as soft, but I haven't actually used that one yet.

They are meant to be out in the uk in boots today, but not on the website yet?

I placed my first order too. Does everybody need to pay customs too? Or is that randomly picked?
