I have two kids and I would not want them to say the F word, or the B word either for that matter. Just food for thought.
Okay, off the

I'm not going to get into an argument with you over my statement or my name. I will say however, that post was inappropriate. I know people are upset about the whole thing- I hate it to. I think it's ridiculous but to say that without even a little editing (F*ck would've been a lot better) is inappropriate. Like it or not.

This is utter crap and so very MAC. I can't believe that all of you who ordered in the wee hours of the morning are getting the shaft.
I am going to my damn store an hour before they open. I will cut anyone who gets in my way! Just kidding. I figure if I go in an hour early and I still don't get the damn doll, then it wasn't meant to be. Still so irritated with MAC.
I blame MAC more than Mattel. If MAC felt that Mattel couldn't produce enough quantity to meet the demand for this collection, they shouldn't have entered into a contract with them. AND MAC should know what they have in their warehouse so they know when they sell out. Not keep selling them hours after their stock has been depleted. Classic case of the right hand not knowing what the left hand is doing. Whatever!

Ugh.. I'm yet another one who ordered last night (11 pm Pacific time). I called MAC CS today to check on my pending order, and sure enough, I didn't get the doll. I asked if I was on the backorder list, and he said no. He said essentially "tough luck." I did get both beauty powders though, so I guess that's *something*. I'm so frustrated and disgusted with the whole thing though.

total 2nd. I mean this is so obnoxious and this is so classic mac. It's one of the biggest reasons why I'm getting more and more turned off from it. I mean it's ridiculous! The more they pull these stunts the more I resent and not only resent but begin to get more and more of a bad taste in my mouth.

i bought the springtime skipper and moth brown e/s, and the limited edition mini case. i didn't have alot of money to spend. i just bought a bronzer and e/s the other day!!!
that sucks for those who tried to get the barbie, they should have thought about the amount of people who would want it.

So, I order my doll (and the rest of my stuff) at 11:20pm Central time last night, and they sent me a confirmation that they received my order. I haven't gotten an email yet saying that it was cancelled or backordered or anything, but macpro never charges my credit card until the order is shipped, so I have no way of figuring that out from that. Did anyone that ordered around that time last night get an order confirmation, but not get the doll? I tried to call customer service, but of course, they are not available after 5. If I don't have some kind of confirmation by tomorrow (early) morning, I am driving the 2 hours to my nearest freestanding store to stand in line and be murdered over a plastic doll because I love her.

well, I don't know about you guys, but I was sleeping at midnight, since I work early in the morning, and I think it totally sucks that MAC decided to get those out at impossible hours of the night! What the hell?? I have to work to have money to buy MAC, but that also means I have to go to bed to get money...so, quite the vicious circle!!

I canceled the barbie off my order so that it wouldn't tie things up. My card has been charged the amount, minus the barbie, but it hasn't been changed on the pro site. HTH!

That is just one of the many annoying aspects of this collection so far. Seriously! Midnight! WTF? The earliest they usually put a new launch up is usually like 10!
BTW....I have been in such a tiz about the doll that I totally didn't even notice the tote bag until like 5 min ago!
When did that go up? I didn't even realize that was in the collection!

Amongst all the frustration and anger in this thread (and rightly so), your post put an image in my mind that totally made my evening. To think that we're so crazy about these things that we'll resort to the actions of a 10-year-old to beat off the 10-year-olds!
I'm not saying this as a criticism, just an amusing statement of fact (of our craziness, not the beatings - we haven't actually gone that far yet, right?).
Well, I'm glad I'm not hankering after the doll, mainly because I can't afford it and I'd rather get something I can use (the makeup). I completely feel for all of you tho, this run-around is not good customer relations, especially for the hour at which the craziness (which they started) happened! I was hoping the tote bag wouldn't go so fast, but ... really, what was I thinking? It's Barbie and MAC, and there's a reason I bumped my makeover a week earlier!

I know some of you are probably in the Twin Cities area - so FYI:
I just called the Mall of America freestanding store to see if they were for sure going to have the Barbie collection out tomorrow, because I was planning to go in the morning before I go to work at noon. (Because last week they kept saying not til the 15th)
She said that they would, but only the makeup & bag - NO dolls. I didn't say anything about the fiasco online about the dolls, she brought it up to me. She said MAC has miscommunicated with them about this collection, and she herself was upset too. She mentioned that MAC informed the store quite a while ago to let people know they could order the doll online starting on the 13th. So... that's what they've been telling their customers. She said they have been receiving a rash of angry phone calls today from people who happened to look at the site today, and saw that the doll was made available early and sold out immediately. I felt so bad for her, it sounded like she had been hearing about this all day.
Now, considering how much bad information has been put out there - I'm hoping this isn't more bad information, but I'm posting this so that no one drives to MoA hoping for a doll when there aren't any. Call first before you go, maybe there will be a miracle delivery or something and they'll get some... but it sounds doubtful.

I found myself looking at the words "sold out" glaring back at me from the site. I'm not sure how they sold out so fast. My sister lost a ton of dolls she had been collecting for a long time in a basement flood. So I wanted to get her something different and nice. I guess I'm out of luck too. There is no way I'm paying the gouging prices on ebay.. My store here in NJ said they are only gettin 24 in and if I want one, be at the store by 10 am. Yea, I'm sure my boss will totally understand why I would be almost an hour late.. for a doll! Yikes.

Wow just been on Ebay, can't believe the amount of tight-a**es already flogging off the Barbie merch!! I find this really mean, they are just in it for the money and many people on this site are clearly upset at missing out
The collection doesn't come out in Australia for another two weeks, I'm not interested in the doll but if one is available I'd be happy to get it and pass it on to someone who didn't get one (at cost price).
