Well I just died again coz the lipglasses are $53 and the lipsticks are $51, wtf...
Wow... And I thought the Mexican markups are outrageous... we pay $21 for a regular lipstick and single eye shadow pot... My store told me they wouldn't be getting the Brooke items in so I don't know what the pricing would be on those here.

At that price, Australians would be better off buying it on ebay or Facebook, even with shipping costs added! :finger:

Agreed. I do buy things off eBay sometimes if there's a few things I want from a collection. The more money I can save, the better. Oh really? Here the single eyeshadow pots are $30 and regular lipsticks are $36 :( even though the mark up for this collection is huge, the bronzer is only $41 which is a good price.

I need to stop complaining about MAC prices here in Trinidad. Regular prices for lipsticks and individual eyeshadows are $130TT and when you convert it, it comes up to about $20US.

Scary thought :shock: Oh wow the bronzer is actually cheaper than the lipstick!
Yep, I bought it :D hope I like it...

It's understandable for us to want MAC's U.S. prices lol.

Same for me but if I do get MAC stuff in a counter locally, I only buy it duty free. Thank God we can get stuff duty free without having to go to the airport! Otherwise, I send my stuff to my sister in TX who clearly loves me too much and brings my stuff back when she's on break from school.

I'm in Mexico, but I have a mailbox in TX for this reason... Sometimes I buy my MAC for cheaper, but mainly I do it because people at my MAC store suck at telling when collections will be in store, not calling when they say they will, and not holding things for me when they say they will. Ordering online ensures me I get my products.

Plus I also shop a lot on ebay.

Buying limited editions where I am is a pain! If we even get the collections, the stock is so low. I will never forget the madness that was the Riri hearts Mac collection.... sold out in store in less than 5 minutes. I always order them online and ship to my sister if it's something I really want.
