I know for a fact that some collections are non-B2M-able in some locations. I'm not sure who makes the decision, the store manager or the regional manager or corporate. I went to MAC Soho for a Heatherette launch party in March and it was made clear that no Heatherette item was going to be available through Back 2 MAC. At my location in Connecticut however, they were.
Like I said before, there are the general MAC guidelines, but I suppose at some locations the managers/employees stray off of those rules, whether on purpose or not. You just have to contact an artist at your closest/favorite MAC and ask them what their specific policies are.
