Mine was supposed to be here on Tuesday. You're right, it's not a BB issue, it's USPS. I really don't want to cancel, and am more than willing to stick it out with BB, hoping that they are working on their issues. I am still pretty satisfied with my boxes, but if I were the people getting nothing but foil packets, I would not be happy at all.

Hello everyone!

I'm new here... been lurking for a while though.

I'm in California and still waiting for box 36 which seems to have taken up permanent residence in NJ. I emailed BB about this on the 16th... but of course I have gotten no response.

Last month my box did not arrive until the 24th.

Lame...

on top of that they send me an email today about earning extra points for purchases of items from the Oct box... uh... I haven't even got to try them yet and the offer will expire before I even get my box!

I'm giving them one more month and when I get my 6mo coupon I'm cashing out and cancelling.

I'm still waiting on box # 36 myself.

It was walmart. I don't think they cared either way and this was during finals so I didn't really care either way. Walmart could afford to lose $10.

FYI for those getting a sample of the Eve cleanser, if you want more than one use, decant it into a small container that seals. This sample may not look like much, but a dab is all I need to use it on my entire face. This is at least a few weeks supply.

I love it and I wish they sold the cleanser in a much smaller size for a lower price. I was thinking I might buy it, eventually, with points to offset the cost, but with how long it is taking me to use it up, I think a full size would spoil before I could use it all.

Weirdly, I actually had the exact same thing happen with a package from Walmart. USPS said it was delivered, I never got the package, I contacted Walmart for a refund, and then the package mysteriously showed up the next day. I didn't end up pursuing the refund after that.

Right. I had already submitted my refund request when USPS called me back and I was like ... that's... too much effort for me and I need to study. :| I wonder if Walmart frequently has a problem with USPS.

I am going to call and Cancel my sub right now.... I JUST got my box today, and it's crushed. even the card inside is crushed. It's obvious that the box was smashed before it was put into the mailing cardboard and not the post office's fault. I wasn't so upset about waiting because on my bonus points and because I was expecting 

Kérastase Chroma Sensitive

  blinc Eyeliner in Black beautyblender® double theBalm® cosmetics Mary-Lou Manizer Kusmi Tea Paris - Wellness Essentials All things that I was excited to try...   What I got was   Dr Jart Water Fuse Beauty balm- Which I got last month Naked princess lip gloss Nexxus Pro mend split end foil theBalm Cosmetics Mary-Lou Manizer  Tili bag- also a repeat for me.     I have always been excited to get my birchbox, but right now my skin is boiling. The pictures of what I was expecting is still on my box page...

Anyone with box 32 or the delayed shipping get an update?

Mine was supposed to be 32, and got here today and was not box 32. I am still to pissed to look through to see which box it really is.

I'm in Ohio

I'm STILL waiting on a shipping confirmation email for the replacement box I ordered Monday. This is bogus.

When do they normally put out the 20% off codes (not the anniversary ones), is it the end of month, or random? The item I was just came back in stock, and i'm not sure if I should wait or not. My anniversary code already expired.

Yup... Still no shipping info for me either. Beyond bogus.

TJMax has a bunch of Keratese right now. I don't know if I looked at the price correctly because I think Birchbox is cheaper.

any idea if they sizes will include larger bust sizes in the smaller bands?

Hey! I actually work at VS, and tons of stores just started carrying DDD's in sizes 32-38 (only a week or so ago), so they aren't just online anymore!

You might try calling them.  Them may let you use your anniversary code in this case.
