Anyone ever order with a gift card and paypal? or paypal and another form of payment?

Yes I have. It works just fine and got my stuff like everyone else.

Oh, but I like Ebay! Just not for MAC, it seems.
I did want to look at one set of RiRi items last year. I was so out of it that I didn't even realize that she had more that one launch. I went on MAC in the morning, couldn't even get to look at anything and didn't bother. By lunchtime out of curiosity I checked it and practically everything was sold out! Somehow that made me feel like I had to get something, how crazy of me lol
A couple days later thru Googling I saw the Riri Woo lipstick was still on Nordstrom and nearly looked over my shoulder like, um, isn't anyone seeing this is still here? That's how I signed up with Nordstrom lol to get a rose-gold Riri Woo

i do get some things from ebay but as far as actual mac collections that have not yet launched online...i cant do

Who knows where they get all that product from.

People made their displeasure known on their FB page!
Even I commented, I just found it was unfair.

I need to decide soon!!

I'm with you about GotS - i want blue-purples, not red-purples - i have enough of them already.

I'm pretty sure about the eye shadows, tho, but, yeah, there are several i really have to see in person

Good luck, everyone! I hope that you get what you want (and the right products in the right boxes!). I won't be stalking because I need to swatch (will be running to the store next week!).

I hope I don't jinx it but has MAC decided never ever again to do another hideous waiting room?

thank you!

not really.. people here put a lot of effort in obtaining swatches, information, advice etc.. and then have to give it away to lurkers or people who just join for getting that information.

that's really unethical.

....I'll drink to that^^^^

Oops, better not start that...the "socks" will come back

Yep, that was around the time I decided to quit being a lurker and officially join. All the drama kept me from being an active member until things cooled down a bit. I suggest anyone who is curious why it's not a good idea read this thread if you haven't already.

Thank you for posting the link

I know that TrendMood situation seemed to be a longstanding issue too.

how do you apply the second form of payment after paypal? lol bc there are two buttons so I don't know how to do it. I hope that makes sense. would I check out w PayPal then apply the mac gc or checkout normally then apply paypal somehow?

Oh, I've told MAC CS to go look at the quantities on Ebay

hoping they would investigate. Maybe one day they will get busted.

I tried everything to upload a comparison pic of Soft Sand and Golden, but seems like my phone is broken. Uploading it directly doesn't work and Bluetooth doesn't work either, so I can't upload from my laptop. Anyway, Golden looks more redtoned in comparison, whereas SS looks more yellow and ''muddy'' in the pan. That's all I can come up with at 2 am and half asleep, lol.

Thank you, Naynadine. A description is good enough for me anyhow. I really appreciate it.

I was just going to post that...looking to see if her name pops up. She prolly already has an new name to sign up here...ip address #41 ..lol

It's kinda funny. I think you might consider me one of these "stalkers" that you're talking about, seeing as I only have a few posts (even though I've been a member here for awhile). I usually don't say anything in threads because I guess I don't feel like my thoughts are "profound" enough to say. I do like seeing your swatches and I enjoy your posts (some of you ladies are hilarious), but maybe I'm a bit shy about posting myself? I guess I can't speak for everyone here that are guests (I'm sure there are plenty that take advantage of all of your swatches and commentary), but I guess as a poster that doesn't know anyone well here, it's kinda odd to jump into all the conversations that go on here. Us lurkers aren't all bad, and we don't all want to buy everything up on ebay to sell!

Just thought I'd say something

It's sad to say, but it's not just makeup that ends up on eBay in large quantities from sellers. I am a Blu-Ray collector also and I collect mostly LE steelbooks, which is just a pretty steel case for the movie. I have to be standing outside of Best Buy/Target before they open to get them before they are gone. I have seen people literally pick up every last one and buy them. One guy made me so upset because he wouldn't give me one out of his 20+ and I was right behind him in line. He gave me his eBay username and told me to buy one on there if I wanted it so bad.

I don't have a ton of posts...been a long time member but have dealt with social anxiety for years. Finally decided to try some meds and am opening up a bit better...so, it's all good! I've loved this place foreva!

I mean come on..where else can I feed my addiction?? LOL

Well, I post and chat like a cat who's had too much catnip

I think this is an interactive forum, and as such, the more we contribute the more ideas we get, information exchanged, and friends made.

Or @specktramood, since all the pics were from here anyway.
