Right, but she's not making any money off the $50 resales on eBay unlike Lynnderella who's selling her stuff via auction now. I think there is just too high a demand. I agree it's marketing but I do think their polishes are magical. If you can find me dupes for the beattles collection I will gladly bow to you

ALSO since you admit to never having tried the polishes, how do you know what their formula is like? Most of the reviews I've read tend to say the formula is phenomenal. *shrugs*
Who said I never tried them? Just because I don't buy in to it does not mean that I don't own any. I actually own 2 EP's. A Little Fishy Told Me & a green glitterbomb whose name escapes me that I got in a Llarowe mystery bag. It takes more than a marketing gimmick and a decent formula to wow me. I will say that EP is miles ahead of Lynnderella from what I've seen. I'm not a fan of glitterbombs so I pay exactly zero attention to what Lynnderella puts out.
