I'm sorry for ranting but I just really pissed off right now! Did this happen to anyone else?

Well I just called and they said Its sold out even though when I ordered at 8pm it wasn't! I think it's bs too...So they made like 50 BOAA for 5 million customers?? Cmon.....

If I get billed for it and it's not in my order that will piss me off even more. Since it's still says it's confirmed in my order I am going to assume that I'm getting one.

They told me to get one at the store, so now I might have to phone Kelowna and order one if they even have any. And pay $8.00 for shipping one little thing.

The excuse will be posted on many blogs in a minute about how MAC did not "anticipate the popularity"...which really burns me up. MAC reads the countless blog comments from beauty blogs and read beauty message boards so they know better. There really isn't any excuse.

The only thing I can think of, is that it was close to being sold out even before the launch. I mean, look at melon that was sold out for days before the launch. I seriously thought they would have re-stocked before the launch. It makes no sense not to. But then again Mac doesn't make sense when it comes to releasing enough product for the demand.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

wow, I just finished catching up with this thread. Glad to see most of you guys got the things you wanted. I called my MAC store back and added Bad Fairy n/p to my order. I don't like the OPI "dupe" for it :/

So now I have these on hold:

- Bad Fairy n/p
- Briar Rose bp
- BOA blush
- light cooling powder

i am a little peeved about that too. repromoting too soon.

Oh so fair is being repromoted too.

maybe that's why it took so long for the tartan tale color story...

pot or palette, makes me no difference but too soon.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Are you guys calling MAC after ordering online to confirm you'll get what you ordered? I haven't gotten a shipped email so should I call them too?

i didn't because they are dupes for last years stuff and because people want quick color products like lips and blushes, beauty powders. MES are something people need to see in action and take the time out to apply. imo

Well, to be fair, we knew it was going to be like this. After Marine Life and Stereo Rose... It's pretty insulting to our intelligence that we'd believe MAC would actually anticipate the demand for a product.

Like I said with SR, it's a brilliant marketing campaign they have with the beauty bloggers / youtube guru's. And they aren't paying a cent for it.

I just check my CC statement online. If I was billed for the full amount, I don't worry about it. The last 2 orders I had from Mac.com didn't send me a separate shipping email, I had to go into the order confirmation email to re-direct myself from there. HTH!

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Yay, the full amount was listed on my card! I can't wait to get my stuff.

I don't have either of those. Not sure how often I would use the blue.
