Not even. I can deal with glossy because you know that they may be a day or two behind, but their box eventually comes out and its worth the wait. These boxes might not even be worth it!

They finally replied to my email and told me, QUOTE ' you should have your tracking information early next week.' 

As you can imagine, I gave them an earful.

It would be pointless asking for a refund, but I would MUCH rather have my money back now than this stupid box

I want my money back. Honestly, after all the BS, headache, and waiting, I know this won't be worth it. I want my $26 back because I truly do not believe they will ship Monday. I ordered in what.. July? It's been so long I can't even remember and it was first "shipping early Sept" so now I'm just over it.

 
I also paid for both seasons but i also recall it saying no refunds so i guess we will all just be waiting until they ship... I hate waiting I'm ready to get my box but I hope they arent exactly like the canada boxes I really hate those Sally Hanson nail things I cant get them to work right on my small fingers.thats the only thing I remember out of the canada fall boxes since its been so long since they got theirs. Hopefully its an amazing box so I can be excited for the winter box.... we shall see

 
Has anyone seen this? Preview of what's supposed to be in the fall (winter?) USA Luxe Box:



 
Thats the fall canadian luxe box and then she's just announcing that there will be a usa box. If you look at the date that was long before the fall boxes started to ship.

 
If that's the box we are actually getting, I dig the shape!  It's much longer and taller than the boxes the other companies send out (more along the line of some of the boxes I've received my Birchbox full-size orders in).  It looks like it might be the right dimensions for teabags.  I like using pretty boxes like these for my tea stash at work.  I'm using a Glossybox right now, and it's just the wrong shape.  My OCD simultaneously loves (pretty box!  All the tea collected in one place) and hates (the teabags don't fit neatly!) it.

And the contents, in case you don't want to slog through the video:

  • Wrapped in a silky/rayon wrap instead of tissue paper
  • Sally Hanson Salon Effects nail polish strips (full-sized)
  • Calvin Klein Beauty perfume (standard perfume sample size) and luminous skin lotion (30 ml)
  • Moroccan Oil hair spray (not sure of the size, but it looks like the size of the Redken spray that Birchbox sent out last year)
  • Guerlain La Petit Robe Noir (5ml)
  • philosophy hope in a jar moisturizer (0.25 fl oz)
  • Lancome Defincil black mascara (their standard sample size)
  • loofah

So much not for me, although I'm going to hold out hope that there are box variations and that I get stuff I am unfamiliar with.  I'm also hoping that my request for no perfume actually gets me a box without it because that's a lot of it in one sample box for someone who can't use it.  I think I'm most bummed about the fact that these are all very common department or drugstore brands.  I like more obscure stuff that you would find in a boutique (although I'm fine with drugstore stuff as long as it's not a brand on every end cap at Fred Meyer), and the main reason I get these boxes is to become exposed to stuff I've never even heard of before, like that Nuxe oil that I discovered through Birchbox last winter.  I guess Birchbox is still the best beauty sub for me.

  Actually, at the beginning of the video (specifically at 1:08), she states that they sent her an advance US box.

Nice find! Though it seems like she got a lot of perfumes.... I hope that those who answered no to that intro/sign-up question don't end up disappointed :/

I will really like this box if I get it! I especially love the
Sally Hansen product - these polish strips outlast any polish I've worn! I also enjoy HIAJ and would love to try the Moroccan Oil and mascara. I could go either way on the perfumes but at least the samples are bigger.

Same. I'm not really all that excited except for the item out from the email sent earlier, and the  hope in a jar .

 
That doesn't seem like much stuff for $25, does it? The Discover with Marta box is the same size and is $24 every two months. The samples are bigger and there is usually a pretty hefty full-size. And no perfume.

 
Fingers crossed for box variations because the products in the video doesn't catch my fancy. Not really worth the $26 dollars I paid. D: 

 
That's no fun that it's exactly the same as the Canada boxes. I figured we would get a different box since they are shipping them seperately & all. Sigh... I guess it's good they didn't have an option to sign up for a year since I'm not digging this box at all.

 
I was really sad they were sold out of this month's but that preview doesn't look all that great.  $26 isn't that much than Glossybox's $21 but the wait is so long and I don't think the products are that special.  The packaging is beautiful though- I'm a sucker for pretty packaging so I'll probably give next season's a try for that alone.
