I am really sorry that memebox will stop shipping in certain countries :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I hope there is a way around any problems they have... I also noticed the shipping globally under each box... I am already jealous of special usa shop offers, I don't want to see usa fans getting more boxes than the rest of us (and I say it a nice way!) !!! Isn't there enough memelove for everyone?!?

 
I don't think any of us want boxes being shipped from the US.

The quality (and value) is going to drop drastically if they do that. 

And the "brand" focus worries me as well.

I think most of us are just crossing our fingers that all of this behind the scenes stuff is just because of the Memeshop and USA Exclusives shops going through changes. 

However, doing brand type boxes ( similar to their current "value sets") that just ship within the US would make sense. Since those bring in an entirely different type of customer, and also bring in some major profits.

Just popping in to say hello to all my favorite ladies! Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday for those of you who celebrate! I've had a crazy few days- super busy visiting family and trying to keep up with my blog so I don't get too far behind! LOL

I bought the boxing day box (who knows what number it was at this point...way too many of them in my opinion lol) that had the "deluxe miniatures." To me, deluxe mini's doesn't mean "foil packets" so I'm down. $12 is pretty much the only thing I can afford after Christmas LOL I like deluxe samples because I like to try stuff and not have giant full size items everywhere. I have enough of those as it is. At this stage in the game, I'm more interested in deluxe samples so that I can try stuff and then buy full sizes of the stuff I like. I've got enough full size skincare to get me through my entire life ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'm off to continue cleaning my room even though it's 3am...way too much work!!!

 
Quick update - Boxing Day box number 4 now sold out too. Only a few old boxes left #17, CPM2 (which will be there till the end of time...).

Only bought the samples box and Pony palette using the VIP code as saved $5 or so. Will see what the new year brings.

 
@@MissJexie hey happy holidays to you too! I wanted to get the sample box but it sold out after I woke up lol. I didn't buy it immediately because I didn't need those hair or makeup samples. Hopefully its good.

@@Alidolly oh wow! Thats really quick. People must have been thirsty. I'll save up points for legit themed box. Expecting a New Years Collection #1 and #2 soon lol. It has been the common trend since Thanksgiving. But the quality hasn't been like before... :/

 
@@veritazy agree - most of the recent boxes seem to be repeats and old stock. If they do release New Year boxes, I'd want it to say "all new stock for the new year" as I'd likely wait for new themes boxes too otherwise.

They've obviously still got loads of CPM2 boxes which they should just reduce to $12 and get rid of them. $19 isn't a big enough price drop. Breaking them up might give them a slightly bigger profit margin ($8 for the appletox / serum and a couple of dollars for the other item). Actually tried the eye shadow yesterday (blue palette) and it wasn't bad tbh. I've got the browns and pinks to though so only missing the purples lol!

I'm not in a mad rush for new boxes so can wait till something I really fancy comes along...unless they decide to stop shipping to the UK next..could be their way of streamlining to US and China only lol!

 
That's just mean... I see 40% off sale then notice us only grrr
No....that's just typical. They always forget the global folk.

S'ok...nothing I want or need anyway. I've a whole body shop advent calendar worth of stuff (and Tesco one too). My MIL gave me some Champany's products as well...I'm drowning in lotions, potions and creams. ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I've got to say, the SharaShara shadows have really impressed me. I keep it in my emergency makeup bag in my purse and now I find myself reaching for the little trio even when it isn't an 'emergency'.

 
USPS has had my Black Friday #5 box sitting in NY since 12/19 with no updated info --UNTIL I put in an email update request.  All of a sudden I get an update it is on the move.  Meanwhile the Christmas Glam box arrived yesterday after sitting in NY since 12/22 and again no update.  There is hope that the BF5 box will arrive next week.   It gets tiresome wishing my boxes would arrive.  (Wishing don't make it so.) 

MB's new no ship policy to Hungary and other destinations -- I presume was prompted by customs issues.  Perhaps if the neon pink wrapper sans the large font Memebox was in a brown rapper -- I know boring as boring can be, but the idea is to blend in and sail through customs without raising the red or pink flag being waved in front of a bull.  I know some luxury houses do the abbreviations not to skirt customs necessarily but to cut down on theft.  I mean if you saw Hermes or Chanel on a shipping label, wouldn't that be like saying hey postal peeps there is something very nice inside this package.  

Am at least happy to see the spoilers on the boxes I have ordered and are between here and there, so thank you ladies for posting them!

 
My BF5 is still somewhere . Ordered same time as 4 shipped the same day yet 4 arrived just before Christmas and no sign of 5 as it still says somewhere. Tbh I'm not thrilled with the boxes and they were for gifts secret Santa s so I suplemented one box and just bought online for another in the sales . Yet boxes ordered afterwards also snail mail arrived sooner. Roll on new beauty boxes kicking in . I'm waiting for all my Asian Korean Japanese snacks boxes to be delivered as only my January abcdeat box has arrived as of yet

 
Anyone remember if Memebox added Global #19 as a single box yet??

 
Hi Ladies!

Am I allowed to ask questions regarding products received in boxes in this thread or is there another more suitable thread?

I need help putting together a care package for a friend with my excess Memebox stuff and want to make sure that I'm providing items that are more likely to be suited to her but all of the info cards basically say the same thing for all moisturisers/cleansers so I was hoping people had first hand info they could give.

So, do we think think there will be any further boxes released in 2014? And will they include new products or old - that is the big question!

Hoping Empress and the restocks I ordered arrive next week. Wonder if they'll put up the info cards for the Boxing Day boxes since they are sold out now and you can't cancel, no reason not to..as would love to see what they contain. Really hoping gamble on the mini box pays off...

House Internet connection fried (on mobile 3G signal). Hope its fixable!!

Well I know lots are waiting for the single global19 to go live . So that should be the next box for sale really.

I'm still waiting for my lost blackfriday5 box and mask and lb12 and global18 to turn up. I'm not to fussed about any restocks to be honest . I'd rather some well curated boxes or a new global bundle up bit that won't happen until they do the single 19 . And nearer to when 19 ships .i imagine we will see NY box like they did for bb. Xmas. Boxing Day and thanksgiving as they know people will buy . But a new year and new companies we will see . I think boxes will slow drastically and will ship only to certain countries.i expect the drive for USA and China will be ramped up more . I think what has happened in China will be what goes on with America next
