B2M - Read before posting questions about Back to MAC.

[SARAHluvsMAC]

yes they are the same price, and pro pans are actually cheaper than a small pot eyeshadow, but they aren't going to start giving the whole line away for free...

 

[SWEET LUST *]

When I emailed MAC, I already knew about the new policy at freestanding stores only. I only asked if I had to purchase something to be registered. They replied saying it wasn't necessary at counters, and that I can do B2M anywhere. Since I specifically asked about eyeshadow/lipglass though, I asked if I were to walk into any counter and b2m for eyeshadow, and that's the reply they sent me.

Is this available in Australia and other places or just the US?

B2M policy in Australia still remains 6 empties for one lipstick at all locations.

 

[calbear]

Interesting - the memo my store got allows exchange for any pot eyeshadow, any lipstick that is not in special packaging, tinted lipglass, lustreglass, lip gelees or plushglass.

I wonder if this B2mac will work on LE stuff? Because I have had issues before with LE lipsticks, but if this is the case i need to start depotting all my e/s.

 

[MisStarrlight]

LEs are ok to get for B2M...as long as it's not in special packaging.

Well when I went to my MAC counter today they said as far as they know it's still only MAC stores that have the new policy but the MA said hopefully it'll be in counters soon. As far as she knows she said counters were still the usual B2M policy.

Eh, either way I'm happy with only lipsticks!

OK, I went to a MAC seminar last night and asked about the new B2M policy and they told me that B2M for l/s, l/g & e/s will ONLY be at F/S stores and PRO stores and NOT at counters (only l/s). hth!

 

[iiifugaziii]

i'm sorry if someone already addressed this; but the NEW b2m policy is only available in US and UK at the moment. or at least that's what it said on the memo

 

[jenii]

Oh, that is *so* cool. I've got a few empties now, and I'm pretty excited that when I do take them in, I can get something other than a lipstick!

If that's only at the freestanding stores, I guess I'll have to take my empties there. I don't care, if it means I can get a free e/s!

 

[m4dswine]

This is sooooo confusing!!!

Who said this?

The registering part of it might be kind of what we do at Lauder. When a customer comes up to me with a coupon for a free sample, we take their info and create a registry card so we can call them for special events, GWP, new collections etc. It's a way to create a relationship, instead of the customer going to any of the counters in the area, she will hopefully come back to us and we can track her preferences, etc.
Maybe MAC is doing that now too?

So this is available in the UK - but I guess the counter's in Debenhams will not get it

 

[mybeautifulface]

For the l/g B2m does this include lipglass and lustreglass?

 

[AudreyNicole]

Another B2M Question...

Do empty full size paint tubes count for B2M or only the plastic products?

Re: Another B2M Question...

They count.
