I can't wait to see whats inside!! and i do think the winnners will have there boxes 1st because they stated 1st boxes are only for the winners other boxes will be threw subscription 

 
So excited!! I was just telling myself how I would really like something in my mailbox next week! lol This is the perfect early birthday present (since my birthday is may 6 :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Glossy Box US is more expensive than Glossy Box Canada? That's surprising. It's usually the other way around. I'm really hoping the Canadian one will be great. Can't wait to see what people in the US get in their boxes!

 
I can't wait to see what's in your Glossyboxes, ladies!!!!

  Please post pics for us!!!!
 

 
I agree $21 is kind of steep but i guess if they include better things it will be worth canceling myglam and birchbox for ? lol I don't know if i can justify $41/month in subscription boxes....

 
Sad =(

I didn't win a box nor am I going to sign up for Glossybox. $21 is just too steep for me. The UK box is £10 which is equal to around $16 american dollars so why are they charging an extra $5? Same thing with Glossybox Canada. $15 Canadian dollars = $16 American dollars.

 
Thanks for the welcome :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Glossybox countdown is on! I’m excited to see what’s in the box. I know it’s going to be good because this is not their first time at the rodeo. I’m pretty sure they have done research and are fully aware of the vast difference in price point between them and the other monthly sub boxes. I’ve been watching the youtube vids from the other countries and it looks like this is the Bugatti of beauty boxes. If it’s good I’m going in. I can’t bear the thought of having to watch vids of everyone else opening their “awesome†box while I’m at home hoping my MyGlam bag is 1. Not crappy and 2. Comes on time.

 
I also think $21 is pretty freaking expensive but I think I'm definitely gonna sign up for at least a couple months.  I've just heard so many good things about it to pass it up.  Hopefully it turns out to be worth the money. 

 
Hmmm...I kind of don't like their business model of sending the first month free to a select few winners.  I'm bummed I didn't get one!  

$21 is a little high IMO.  I think $10 is a steal and I have no idea how Birchbox makes any profit.  I think for a good box $15 is fair and I'm comfortable with that.  But $21...that seems like it is pushing it.  For $21 I can buy a full-size shadow/eye-liner/etc at Sephora and I'll know that I'll <3 that!

I may consider Glossybox, but I'll wait a few months and make sure it can keep up the goods.  Until then, I'm only subscribing to Birchbox which has been very good to me.  I'm going to be very good to them the next 20% coupon that comes my way!  :-D

Disclaimer: I won a first box

but I think it's more fair than any other way, they didn't give them away to specific bloggers or anything, they held a drawing for them so everyone got a fair chance, imo. I don't know that anyone would have had a better chance of getting a box if they had a sign up list and opened subs for the first month.

I agree and if I didn't win I would want to see what kind of stuff they have for a $21 sub price.

 
I'm actually starting to think that it's a good thing that they gave the first boxes away given the price.  Now that the first boxes are out in the wild, they have to hope that we look at the contents and decide that they are worth the money instead of getting us to hand over the money up front and cross our fingers, as has been the case with Posh Pod, Sample Society, and pretty much every other startup.

 
I didn't win a box but I'm super exicted to see what members received and subscribe soon! Maybe we will get to see later this week.

 
Hi guys! Im new to writing on here but not new to reading! Started reading in November. So I hate to have the first thing I write to be a favor BUUUT Im trying to win one of these precious Glossy boxes though one of the last contests they are having.

That is a good point - you can preview what types of products they put in.  I totally jelly...I hate missing out on stuff.

I just feel like so many of these subs (cough, MyGlam, cough) send out a really slick first box to get a lot of hype and then...you get some duds for awhile.  I don't trust that the boxes they are giving away will be representative of their monthly boxes...so it won't be what causes me to join.  But I am hoping they prove me wrong and have consistent awesome boxes!  If it's good stuff, I'll join in after a few months for sure.

I do like that the giveaway was random...

 
GlossyBox has a great reputation in other countries though so lets hope its not that way!
