GlossyBox - June 2012

[bloo]

Does anyone remember how long they took to get to them once they shipped out? I live in New England and can't for the life of me remember how long they took to ship.

Good point, but I just recall it not taking to long. Week maybe?

I got the email on the 24th last month and it had shipped out 2 days earlier, so the 22nd. I hope they are already on the way. This will be my last month so I am hoping its a really good box. If only for the card crap I had to deal with.

Last month it took 6 business days (7 if you count the Saturday) to reach me in TX.

- In response to bloo's question above

Last month I got my Shipping notice on the 25th and due to memorial weekend had to wait till Tuesday because I sent it to my job...so If we get our shipping notifications today we should be getting our boxes starting tomorrow.

I HOPE!

Last month I got my shipping notice on the May 25th and I remember getting my May box on June 1st so it didn't take too long to get to me... I too am hoping for a good June box because I seriously think this will be my last box. Don't get me wrong, the boxes themselves are nice and so tempting but I'm not going to let myself be a potential victim of theft and fraud. I decided to sign back up with Myglam (The last couple of bags looked a little decent to me... maybe they're finally getting with the program, or trying to at least) so I'm on the waiting list for that, and I'll just stick with my Birchbox and SS. Myglam is the iffy one for me but I'm happy with the other 2 so far.

You remember how they posted a picture on their Facebook wall and asked us to guess the theme?

Well, I did some research and stumbled upon this page with the same picture. Maybe we'll be getting the same products?

• Aquasource Eye Perfection by Biotherm 
• 3-step skincare system by Clinique 
  
• Eye Therapy Patch by Talika 
  
• Thermal Water by Avene 
  
• Foaming cleanser by Sisley 
  

If we really end up getting all of this, I will be super happy /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Would they really send us two eye products? And where do they ship from again?

They ship from NJ I believe. I could be getting them mixed up with BB though. Those products are from Germany's GB Magazine website for anti-stress ideas.. I doubt we would get the exact same contents. At least that is what I gather from watching many, many unboxings from various countries. The boxes are never the same. Occasionally they will have one product that is the same like the US having the Burberry lipstick 2 months later.  Germany's June box didn't even have those items featured.

 Thanks! I just thought it would be weird to not have more of a variety of items in the GB.

Me too! That's why I went searching for the last three months of Germany's GB. They got some good stuff. They get Kryolan (or however it's spelled) a lot. I hope we get some one day. It's a brand I've wanted to try forever. I didn't get the free box that was sent out but that gloss color would have been bad on me anyway.

I wonder if it will be somewhat like last month's again with the full size product being a nail polish.

They ship from South Kearny, NJ (I'm guessing that's the Glossybox warehouse) to the Newgistics facility in Elizabethtown, NJ, and then they apparently get rerouted along the Newgistics network.  Mine shipped on the 24th.  I received the notice on the 25th, and it was waiting for me when I got home on the 31st.  I'm in Portland, OR, so that's downright speedy shipping, but it seems like *forever* when you're anxiously awaiting goodies.  

If it takes a week again, I'm hoping it ships today/tomorrow and arrives next Tuesday because Tuesdays are usually my crappiest days at work since that's the day the weekend workload catches up, and then I get the added bonus of having that particular day be month-end close this time around.  Sure, we're off on Wednesday, but we usually get to go home early on the day before a holiday (in my case, that usually means half an hour after I get back from lunch!), and chances are pretty much one hundred percent that's not going to happen this time around because of the whole month-end-Tuesday thing unless my coworkers miraculously get done with their work so they can take some of mine (not likely due to the month-end thing), and not getting to go home early will be viewed as my fault because a certain thing has to be done every day, I'm typically the only one who does it, and it usually takes me all day on month-end Tuesdays.  So.  Yeah.  It would be *awesome* to come home to a nice, shiny, pink box of happiness next Tuesday.

Isn't that the truth!!

I CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!!

My cancellation request was finally processed after several days and three emails. The confirmation was terse and slighly guilt-inducing, but whatever. I'm kind of sorry to go too because that first box was really awesome, but I have too many red flags going up. The fact that it took five days to get this thing canceled was bad enough. Maybe I've gotten spoile din an age in instant communication, but I'm used to having an issue addressed a little more quickly. Not immediately or even the same day, just a little mroe quickly than five days. Of course I'm wondering right now if this is a symptom of a boatload of customers canceling at once after the credit fiasco...

I am really hoping glossybox pulls it together and fast. I luckily haven't had issues with the card but I can see where your disappointment comes from. Does the problem seem to have stopped or is anyone noticing it still happening? I am gonna try to stick it out because I'm gonna give them three strike system. So far no strikes for me personally but I really do look forward to getting my box.

 

[MKCurio]

I can't remember when I received my shipping notice last month but I know the box arrived on the 30th.  I'm so excited to see what's inside!!  

 

[dreile]

So has anyone received their shipping notices for this month yet?
