MAC x Rihanna Collection Discussion (2013)

[Corally]

Fall and Holiday are special packaging.

Woohooo! 

I definitely don't want the special packaging so I was seriously considering stalking the Dutch site for this release even though I really want to see some swatches first. Happy happy.

For a second I thought that rose gold packaging was for the summer collection, I'm so happy it isn't!

Wth MAC, just do max 4 without seperate orders.

I know, right!? They should've done the normal 4 max, and made it PER ADDRESS.

 

[internetchick]

I think the 1 per order was simply meant to slow down resellers. Harder to build up their stock that way.

After 2 hours on an ipad and iPhone I got Nada. I ended up cp'ing from someone who managed to get a few of them but it cost me $50. MAC is seriously my crack....:shock:

Wow... Well they also say crack is wack! Whoever did that ripped you off! Especially since people still have pending orders and its not even confirmed if its even been shipped for anyone! What happened to people just doing kind things out of the goodness of their hearts?? I would ask for a refund n just wait for June

 

[KiKi Kontour]

Yup. No one took my offer, so i bought myself yet another one!

STICK EM UP!!!!! AND PASS IT OVER....NOOOOOOW!!!

I reuse my boxes to mail stuff down to my sister and use the tissue as stuffing for sales or CPs

I do too I use the black paper but I always recycle the boxes. I know everyone doesn't tho just seems wasteful

From comments i can tell the Virtual Room Sucked. i can see alot of people liking the only 1 item option. yes more people are able to get the product. but i also see lot of those people love to back up items. so i dont see the point of liking the virtual room.

People buy lots of items for ebay, but some are also buck ups, some of us buy to do cp's. im glad i didnt do cps for this collection. trying to get something for someone else would have suck. im very fatigued most of the time to be dealing with waiting and waiting.

if you like to buck up items dont complain about others buying more than one. the 4 limit in my opinion is the best option.

I didn't like the virtual waiting room, because I was too dumb to know what was going on at first

I seriously thought it was a technical site glitch thingy

You guys are cracking me up! I've rarely ever spent $50, usually $30 for a missed lipstick, but that's the price I've learned to pay when you're not there at the store opening and don't have a pro account. It's rare though ladies....examples are Archie's daddy's little girl was $30, I CP'D two Ronnie reds at $30 each, but ended up selling one because that was too much. Also Marilyn. I paid $50 each for all 5 or 6 marilyn lipsticks. Didn't have much choice, just like with this. I don't want that rose gold stuff lol

 

[macnc50diva]

Oops accident!

This might be a stupid question but what is CPS?

Girl...you doing it all wrong...but if you like doing it like that then who am i to tell you otherwise!! I think Specktra and just associating yourself around good makeup people can get you the things you miss out on for good prices....if you watch a lot of people offer a lot of these things that sell out quick for same price with shipping and tax. Now Marilyn may be an exception bc people went nuts over that collection but i still don't agree with 50 per lipstick. It just makes me sad to read this....

PS. paying more than retail is not a CP anymore that's just a sale, IMO, one with price gouging

 

[KMQE716]

This might be a stupid question but what is CPS?

CP=Custom Purchase, where someone purchases something for you, that you cannot obtain for whatever reason for the retail price, shipping

 

[KMQE716]

on another note, MAC took the money from my bank account at 5:14 so i take that's a good thing

 

[Haven]

I missed out b/c of work.

I will have to wait until the next launch in June. I just checked evilbay, and this ls is being sold for up to $120.00. Who would pay that?
