I believe someone posted Boxing Day Box #4 on FB Memeaddicts group, it was kind of a bust of a box, imo.

Eh, doesn't look like a terrible box to me. They promised a box of items seen before and that's what they delivered. It feels sometimes like people are going to not like boxes no matter what, which they will because it's a mystery box. We pay money and take a chance knowing that we could end up with colors or products that won't work for us. I know Memebox has been crap at times (I got a K-Style 4 box so I know that for sure!), but when they put out boxes with 5 or so items and the value is quite a lot higher than what is paid for it, there's not much to complain about imo. Sure, we can be unhappy if we can't use a product, but why go into buying a mystery box if you aren't prepared for that? I guess that if feels like all I read when I new box is out is complaining.... We can't feel entitled to have Memebox deliver us a box that is perfect and has just the items we wanted, because it's impossible. I'm definitely not saying Memebox is perfect, but it does feel like they've at least heard the issues and are trying to improve upon it, and thankfully CS is answering most emails now!

In all fairness, branded items like that don't sell ANYWHERE near their retail/suggested price. It's why branded boxes aren't great deals like general Memeboxes. So you could recreate that box for that amount, so it's really not a good value.
And I think most of us just don't want a bunch of repeats.
Especially one with crappy/meh/not quality/not well received products.

Didn't the description for box #4 clearly mention the two brands and that there were going to be repeat items? So it shouldn't be a big surprise to anyone what's in there. I'm just glad I didn't get it because I sold 3 of those items once, don't need to do it again.

Well, well. It looks like some of my boxes have finally departed LAX. Theyve only (supposedly) been there since Thanksgiving.
Skincare Elixirs (Nov. 28 ship) and Cleanse and Tone (Dec 8 ship) still haven't moved but my Tea Tree and Memeglobal order have.
I got my restocked Moisture Surge today. If I was Memebox I'd be raising hell somewhere about why all their boxes are missing...
And it's not because of the holidays. It *could* be because of that longshoreman strike but who really knows.
Did TK or other Kbeauty shop orders have these issues??

I guess I kinda think of it in terms of how much could I get for 30 bucks on another site and it's generally not much when I add in shipping to Canada. So for me Memebox is good value. Especially since I couldn't even buy one good skin care cream here for $30 I bet! It's such a personal thing, the feeling that you've gotten your money's worth.
Also, I'm confused by the hate for the Skinfood products since I thought people really liked those? I haven't tried any yet so maybe that's why the box doesn't look too bad to me! (About the repeats, the description did say it would be repeats or would include some repeats I think? Is the whole box repeats or was there a new item or two in there?)

i actually not got any of those in boxes so it not so bad if that makes sense.
the egg white pore and the tomato cleanser would be the only things id use though.

Thanks Lorna - appreciated. Tried typing in the code (to bring up the details but can't get it to load as was hoping thr other boxes would be there too as looking for the #2 box contents
/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> )I had no interest in warehouse clearout boxes.
But I didn't even see that. It actually listed the brands it would contain?!
Oh, wow.
I'd still do better on HonestSkin though with $30.
Similar customer service.

This was the description, so I was expecting warehouse clear out for sure.
"This lovely box offers 5 full-sized skin care and makeup products from the hottest K-beauty stores (like Skinfood and Tonymoly anyone?) for only $23!Grab yours now, because Boxing Day Special boxes come in limited quantities only and we don't want you to miss out! P.S. This box does not contain any item that was featured in CutiePieMarzia 2. However, you might see some favorite repeat products from our previous Memeboxes "

My Tea Tree still hasn't moved, but now I have hope! Thanks!
I'm also missing an Honest Skin order from that time, but I already got a refund through Paypal for it, so I don't care what happens to it. Honest Skin is such a sketchy company - avoid them like the plague! I just placed my first order from TesterKorea after hearing nothing but great reviews.
I seriously can not stop laughing at this.This was the description, so I was expecting warehouse clear out for sure.

At least they're finally being honest about some things.
But favorite repeat products? :lol:

There is hope! Mine updated today about 11:30am. I was checking them because I was about to write another email to Memebox. I'll wait a day or two for the other boxes to update before I do that now.
At least they're in California and nothing will have frozen while they sat around.
