They have loads of LE items still listed except you can't order them. Isn't that nice?

Well let us know how it goes! If it works, I'm going to be very *excited*. But I'm not sure where they'd be getting the products from if MAC doesn't make them anymore. ?? Or maybe they do, but just don't sell them in stores and counters. What a mystery. Good luck guys!

Ordered a Parrot, DeMenthe, Sweeten Up and an Earthly Delight. If they show, awesome, if not, I'm not out anything, so it's worth the try.

I would be very amazed if they actually had many of the discontinued shadows. Some (black gold) have been discontinued for many years.
That said, I ordered about $300 worth of makeup. My credit card prays it's a mistake!

LOL I did the same thing too and I'm sure my cc is hoping it's a mistake as well!

Here is my LiveChat with a Nordstroms Beauty Agent. Not a lot of help but this seemsso doubtful to me.

You have been connected to Lani N.
Lani N: Hello, Jude and welcome to Nordstrom Beauty!
jude: Hi Lani. I have a question about some items listed on the MAC site.
Lani N: Yes, how may I assist you?
jude: On the MAC site, listed under the Velvet Eyeshadows are a number of new releases but many of them are long discontinued items that have been impossible to get for a long time. Are these accurate, does Nordstroms actually have these colors in stock or is this an error?
jude: II can provide the link if that helps.
Lani N: I have the link, thank you. Yes, we try to accurately represent our inventory on the website.
jude: Okay.. I just wanted to be sure because the Black Gold has been out of production for a number of years. I just want to be sure before I order that the items are actually there.
Lani N: We fulfill many of our online orders from our Nordstrom store locations. Please be assured that we will search all locations for the color you are requesting.
jude: Okay, fair enough. Thank you for your help.
Lani N: My pleasure, and thank you for chatting with us today, Jude

I just completed a LiveChat with Susan at MAC and she seemed very skeptical. She said that maybe Nordstroms found the old shadows in their warehouse because that is the only way they could have suddenly come across them. She gave me another number to call.

I clicked on the back button during the LiveChat and lost it. Otherwise, I would have posted it.

There was a girl selling these same discontinued shadows on Live Journal (Pretty Twisted, Parrot, de Menthe, Black Gold, Poise, Clone, etc., etc....) and a TON of people paypaled her the $. I asked for a list of all the shadows she had because I really wanted some of the older ones like Black Gold, and she never wrote me back. Two days later, she posted that "it didn't work out as expected" and that she was "working on" giving refunds...So either she was a total scammer, or she thought she could get all those shadows from somewhere and sell them for a profit, but then found out they weren't in stock?

I wasnt one of the people that ordered all the rare stuff (I wanted something 'normal' from her previous sale), but she did give me a refund. I needed the money back for a pet emergency and she was very nice about it. I believe the others got their refund via paypal as well. I think she lost her method of getting the shadows or got screwed over somehow. Dont know.


Shipping on Nordstrom is enough to keep me from ordering, haha. I'm so cheap.
