CFDA POPSUGAR Must Have box, Special Edition April 2015 *Spoilers*

[Mailbox Junkie]

  Well, I am glad to know that you guys don't see it as a conflict of interest to sell stuff from boxes that you don't want. I have read some stuff lately on other threads that people seem to think that is wrong. But I just re-sell stuff to generate more funds for my boxes! 

  I think Rachel Zoe has reaped the benefit of coming into the sub-box business at the right time to have learned a lot from PSMH trial and error. I think it is obvious PS has realized they need to scale back a bit and focus with the monthly boxes and maybe this is a wake-up call for LE boxes. 
sigh~On a side note I just love Rachel Zoe.

totally agree. even if the earrings were at one point $400, it's silly to take up 67% of the box value on that one item. Though it is really nice - and I hope the company gets some good exposure for it. And the discontinued item? that's not right for a "must have" box (unless it's TJ Maxx's must haves). I too have tried to rationalize this box - and defended them in the past due to our expectations. But this just wasn't a $200 box. It was a $100 box.

Hah! I would have been OK taking a 67% worth pocket book

Walking through Soho yesterday, I happened to spot a burlap/leather market tote IDENTICAL to the one in this box in the window of a little boutique. It just had a different message on it.

Found it funny....but still not keeping this box!

A quick google search could have given us some spoilers earlier (but think we would have been built up further by the brands vs items);

How the heck did we miss that?

Love the bag and the earrings.  Not sure it's worth keeping the whole box over though.  Lucky Coachella folks got access to the bag designers:

A Success Story?  According to who, exactly?  Popsugar? I guess because it sold out in 48 minutes.

With Milly and Anna Sui listed first, people would have been pretty excited...for something fashiony if this one had leaked. Good find!

Uh, yeah. On paper it sounds like a great box!

Is this the 5.3 lb box from Popsugar? I don't want to send back the wrong one

Yes, but you will also know because the black CFDA box arrives in a plain cardboard box while the monthly box is in its regular pink and white box.

Ok thank you!!

Box finally arrived. How do I return it? Unbelievable. It's missing items too. What a pain

I swapped for the burlap tote & I absolutely love it!! It looks so cute hanging up on my vintage hooks in my mud room. Don't get me wrong, if I purchased this box, I too would've been completely disappointed with the box as a whole. This box just had so much potential & it's too bad they just couldn't swing it.

I had decided to keep the box even though it holds no interest for me.  I hoped for a pink lipstick but got red which I'd never wear.  I figured I could trade.  The earrings are a nice quality but I don't wear gold. Of course, I got the gold bracelet too.  I was hoping I could trade it for the silver but when I took it out, the bracelet is damaged.  Now I can't trade it either.  Guess I'll have to give Popsugar a call.   What a mess this box has turned out to be.  It's my first Special Edition box by them.  Not a great impression was made.

I really love the earrings (in theory) and am thinking of bidding on ebay.  Does anyone have a non-professional picture they could share (possibly in ears!).

Thanks in advance /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

annnnnd I'm a sucker and bought them!  I hope I like them as much in person,  one click purchasing is dangerous!

Hey just email them and wait. The email [email protected]. Took them a day at least to respond

 

[Mailbox Junkie]

I am returning mine too. Too much drama plus I just kept thinking of boxes I could reinvest my funds in!!

That is a pain! What was your box missing? It is not like there are that many items in the box to begin with!
