Count me in among those who are losing interest because of all the waiting.  Yawn.

It's like Google+ all over again. Some people got invited and then sent out their limited invites then Google doesn't open it for 2 months. There was so much hype around it, but people lost interest after waiting so long. It could have gone big and even overtake facebook but they took too long and lost their chance. I had an early invite and it was so boring on Google+ because no one else was on there.

Haha! I love the Google + analogy! 

SO TRUE - for Google AND for Glossybox.

That's business 101. Don't hold a contest unless the rules are clearly stated or there WILL be a problem. I won a box and I never noticed any rules posted anywhere. Welcome to the USA Glossybox lol!

Exactly! And it shouldn't have been as big of an issue as it was, imo, Glossybox should've said "our bad" shipped off the box and forgot about it. They'd already handed out what 1000? of these boxes...what's one more? 

Which also got me thinking, what if someone and I just had the same name? My first and last name aren't super common, but just be googling I know there are at least 5 other people in the US with my name. It's all just really strange.

 
I'm not even interested anymore. The first box wasn't great, and they are taking SO long to start the damn subscriptions! Everytime they post something on fb, I want to comment....they shouldn't even post on fb unless it's about opening up, and stop saying "soon". I don't even care anymore lmao

I So agree with everyone ... the wait is such a buzzkill.... I think i might pass on this as well. I'm over the hype and sick of waiting ... I think they overdid it and lost people's interest.

 
I'm sure that they read here and that's how they figured out that 2 boxes with the same name were the same person.  Just a thought. 

I'm also bored with the hype.  It's been going on for far too long now and I'm over it.  The price of the box has also seriously turned me off.

I was a winner and I wasn't super impressed with the first box, other than the OPI polish - which is only worth $9 anyways.  Yes, everything was full size, but the color of the gloss was horrid (to me anyways), the eye gel burned my eyes, the lotion smelled good but did nothing for moisturizing my skin, and the CARGO eye bronzer was actually given away on Ulta.com yesterday as part of a full size 4 piece gift set with any $35 purchase yesterday.  To pay $21 for deluxe sized samples and one full size item a month is too iffy for me.  I've noticed that when subscription services promise full size items, they are usually a lip balm or nail polish and I can just go buy those and I'll still pay far less than the box would have cost.  I would consider signing up for Glossybox if it was just a bit cheaper.  I'll follow what everybody gets and if there is something that I just "have" to have, then I will either try to swap for it or just go buy it myself with the $21 that I saved by not signing up for Glossybox in the first place.

OMG I know thous post on FB are getting so annoying! I read them thinking it's going to be about the subs and of course not! And I don't remember seeing anything about entering more than one email address or getting more than 1 box! I don't remember seeing rules at all to be honest!

Not the Google + comparison lol! Hilarious :smilehappyyes:
 
I'm over Glossybox as well. Open subscriptions coming "soon" doesn't cut it anymore. Making everyone beg for a stupid box of cosmetics really turns me off, nor was I impressed with the first box. I can buy all that stuff in here in NYC; I was hoping for european products. I'm already subscribed to 7 different subscription boxes so I'm not hurting for new samples.

 
No it didn't. I think we got in there before they even finished setting up the sign-up. Even the confirmation emails I received didn't look ready. As an example, one of the sentences about contacting them was incomplete. It reads:

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at [email protected] or by phone at .

No phone #, lol.

 
I tried to process my order 3x. i forgot i already created an acct prior today. i hope they ddnt charge me 3x. im waiting for the charge to go through, i hope there is none. Thanks for the announcement!

Ah darn, oh well. I feel better just knowing I've sent my order. Made sure I got a spot. I hope we can finish our profiles after tho I don't see why we wont be able to.
 
I HOPE I WONT receive the same stuff for this month from their free boxes. I was one among the winners and it seems they havent updated their partner brands yet.



 
I just signed up too hope it all goes through I already received confirmation that they got the order and received payment. I was also able to complete the beauty profile.
