Well it looks like all the good stuff is sold out now. I keep asking myself if I should just order that compact...it will not get out of my head. :headbang:
The Golden bronzer looks easy to wear for us pale chicks, and you could always pop something else in there if u don't like the bronzer. I think the compact is quite reasonably priced :shrugs:

I got my little sister a set of Sedona Lace brushes and they have the exact same brushes as Sigma, except the hairs are pink and black. If you are wanting the F80, you might want to try buying from them because they are cheaper and have sales often (50% off on Black Friday).
Really? how are they able to do that? I might have to check them out?

I missed it by an hour here on the west coast :( Is there any hope for a restock or will I just have to go in-store?

Swatches from Karen made be knock it down to just Goddess of the Sea and Sea worship eyeshadow. If I get to go in store I'll swatch the shadows.

Well I ordered AS and I already have a ton of bronzers in my collection and just repurchased a NARS one, so I would honestly be buying just for the compact. I thought about getting it and switching out products, but I'm kind of on the fence about Golden because it could be a bit too light for my NC25 skin and RG has too much shimmer for me.

If you mean how are they able to offer 50% off, then I'm guessing because they don't cost anything to make, so they are still making profit. I honestly think they are much prettier than Sigma brushes, but they are 100% the same thing and probably made at the same factory. You should definitely check them out if you like those types of brushes.

i really like silver sun. I found it unique.

I say this all friendly and with a smile so please no one read it the wrong way... I'm thinking pm's were probably smart as the few things I was told in pm didn't sell out crazy fast. Maybe it is a good idea to not discuss lists of what we want during the overnight stalk. OF COURSE talk about all we like, don't like etc but don't post an actual list.

MY LIST:
this is so easy
for them to scroll
and see this
long list of
must haves
and note down
what
they need
to buy.

See. it stands out!! If we just hide it in posts randomly they won't notice as much. maybe even throw them for a loop. Like i really want that pedro duo blush. (it's not as obvious) i sooo do really want this blush LOL List the stuff we don't like, like the overpriced things, the 100th shade of red lipstick, the perm stuff etc I don't think many ebay people research what is perm or not perm. I'm just suggesting it as I was just in the osbourne's thread earlier and in here. Everyone is posting their must have/would die without products. I say this with a smile because I do it too!!

I think there are some ebay lurkers, not all. Maybe we shouldn't say things like "i have to have this or i'll die trying to get it" kinda comments while waiting for launch. it's cool to talk about what we like and don't like but once an ebay/er sees "i'd kill for that color" or "i want 5 back ups" they know exactly what to buy and it's our fault. Maybe don't list what you all got until at least 30 minutes after launch time? this way ebayers don't see you bought backups of certain products. Even if it just helps give an extra few minutes for you all to buy. Some of you missed lipsticks by a few seconds. Like I said, I mean this all friendly and in good fun. Some of you didn't get everything you wanted and now you have to fight all the resellers and ebay idiots because they are reading about everything you are trying desperately to now get. "most" ebayers won't read a paragraph of writing. they have no time. just trying to help

so ive been trying to catch up the last 25+ pages of thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i hope people got what they wanted (I did thanks to a great pal and friend my cali twin @macmakeupluvr86 who endured stalking with me and pmd me times and helped beyond words. she knows im forever in debt to her awesomess. now everyone: remember this is just the initial release. there is still store release, macys and nordies release etc. there is time and its not the end of the world,,,. i also volunteer to help track down stuff that people missed and check the site for restockings. weve gone through this before and this is why we are not just a forum but a community. WE WILL ENDURE PEOPLE! and most likely will be over whatever we missed in about a month when osbournes comes out anyway. God knows i get over misses real fast, as fast as i get over brand new lippys. so where was I? i was in the middle of a full blown CRISIS. lol. some crazy crap going on at work and some drama with my dress.. (marrying in a month.. and it looks like i need a new dress cause the people i ordered the dress from sent me a picture of something thzt does NOT REMOTELY LOOK LIKE THE DRESS I PAID FOR.... ) but its going to be OK. and if not: im going tocalm down, do my hair today so i can look pretty while i search for dresses hopefully the stores will be sympathetic and find me a dress. lol its a disaster... a funny one though and i learned my lesson which should apply to everything: dont get things online from random people you dont know.. dont believe the reviews since a lot of them are fake. see for yourself, touch and try things on.........

Keep in mind that they are also paying attention when whenever someone posts a new swatch of an item and everyone's drooling over it. We'd also have to contain our excitement for any new collection's color story.

well i dont mean stop talking about it completely just don't make lists. I think it's ok to oogle over swatches and stuff but during the overnight wait and the day before launch we should try as hard as possible to refrain from discussing the hot items.

A few collections back, i remember we would all post a code that it was up and everyone would hold off 30 minutes before posting what they got so everyone had time to get first. I don't remember who's idea it was or started it but i'm sure others do. credit to that person because it worked :)

OMG I am so sorry about your dress! I can relate to dress drama. My seamstress bailed on me two days before my wedding and my MOM had to make my dress adjustments! Congratulations on your wedding!! :) It will all work out and you'll have a beautiful day!
