Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

[Alex Z.]

I don't have any more memeboxes coming to me... Is this the end?!?!?

I checked and it looks like there are at least 100 of the Boxing day 5 boxes left. I think most people are waiting for the info card before buying it. At least I am! I'm considering it if it's awesome! I'm not sure about the masks being good, but getting 15 would be great (especially since I have none right now!).

Hi ladies... I hope you all had wonderful holidays.

I got my last box today...Cleopatra (which I am happy with). But I'm with you Alex Z. Is this the end?? I've received a few boxes and value sets over the hols, but now what?

These holiday themed boxes ... Black Friday, Christmas, Boxing Day, blah blah... Haven't interested me. Enough with lazy holiday themes where they can just throw anything in a box. I want interesting themed boxes, like we were getting prior to November. How long does it take to get it together?? And if they are so crazy for holiday themes, why overlook New Years in favour of FIVE Boxing Day boxes ... What the hell? It's not even like they were crazy-good value.

Finally the Global shop has some cute new sets, but we're supposed to eat full shipping prices now?? Give me something to work with here ... :/

I'm not even going to touch on that affiliate email we got.

I'm not trying to be pessimistic here, just needing to commiserate in a way only an addict can understand. =) I am slowly lowering my expectations, but it is rather disheartening.

Has anyone ordered from the shop?

<3

 

[Alex Z.]

I thought of ordering from the shop because they have a few nice offers now but with no free international shipping no matter the spent, it's not worth ordering... Maybe there will be a nice vip code tomorrow in my inbox!!

I'm with otherw here.  I received my last 2 Memeboxes yesterday - its weird not to have anymore coming.  But after 60+ boxes, I have more than enough product to last me.

I think with the lack lustre boxes of late, little communication, and all round crappy customer service, it might just be the end for me and Memebox.  It was fun while it lasted though.  I will look back fondly lol.

My last box also came today. Seems so odd. At least I have a testerkorea order to look forward too.

I look at my stash and I know it was time for me to be "over" Memebox.  There's no way in hell I can use all this stuff unless I spend six hours a day slathering it on.  Time for a weeding now that all my boxes have arrived. (well, except #17 wherever it is)

I have four more coming then it's the end of the line. I need to weed out but it's so haaaard! Lol, I always think I'll use everything or that I'll miss out on a HG product. But it needs to be done. I'm glad my meme infatuation came to an end because it's bordering on hoarder status.

One foot out the Memebox door here as well. Cancelled all but one of my accounts with them.

It's obvious the company has shifted focus away from boxes for the Euro and N, American markets,  and is pushing us to their own products, or whatever other bundles they can sell quickly and cheaply with no semblance of theme now. How far they've slid in a short time.

Disgusted with the lack of communication regarding all the changes and cut- backs on both products offered and the rewards for loyal customers. 

I hope each of you remembers the really good Meme- times here and with the new and restocked box buying. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> It was like eBay on steroids, wasn't it? /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> 
My best to all who are jumping ship. I totally understand, but I will miss you, as I have read this thread almost every day since last June. 
Good luck, health and beauty to all. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Looks like there's no boxes today as they're promoting the Sally's Box set on Facebook. Only checked as daughter not well today and having to take the day off work to look after her /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> shattered as been up most of the night.

Free shipping on the buy one get something free offer. Better i suppose, but still not interested. Waiting for Friday...if no BOXES then think that's me out (at least until they start respecting their global clients and providing them what they really want ...BOXES....do we need to say it again memespies...

They've raised the prices on the 1+1 sale since yesterday. The Ariul detox mask set has gone up by $9. Still cheaper than the shipping cost I'm sure.

seriously?  WOW memebox.  

yep, I checked the spray essence - that was 10.00 yesterday, now 19.00

I was going to post about it here and then thought of the shipping costs.  So, they basically offset the shipping with the uptick in cost.  Which isn't that bad, I guess, considering now more people will purchase these items, as it will be free shipping...

I got my last memebox last night and I think that is the end of my affair with Memebox. I'm pretty well supplied with ampoules, serums and cleansers. I guess like everybody else, it was good while it last. The quality of the boxes  went down hill and not worth purchasing anymore. Of course, I'm thankful to Memebox introducing me to Korean skincare and to all of you for your reviews and advice.

 

[Fae]

I'll write my last review & use up my points! ^^ I'll probably get the lipstick set!

We're all waving goodbye to Memebox and then they're going to release a Venom box and this thread is going to explode again LOL

But in all seriousness, they're not going out of business, and I know that they see the drop in sales, so I'm really just wondering what they have up their sleeve. If it's nothing- then this is the first time I've ever seen a company do so incredibly well in their first year of existence, and then just threw it away. Maybe they're doing so well in China that they don't need us global shoppers? I don't even know.

All I know is there are other companies (Beauteque and 3b for example) that are already testing the waters and finding their own place in the kbeauty subscription market, so they'll always be something for me to obsess over. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Kbeauty wasn't a passing fad obsession for me- Memebox was. It was a cheaper way to try new brands and products and that was fun for me- but now that it's over, I'm just thinking of my next TesterKorea haul LOL

I sure hope the Memespies are reading these last few pages of comments.  But maybe they don't care.  I haven't gotten the impression they care what customers want since around Thanksgiving.

There are other fish in the sea, and other K-beauty companies on the internet!  Ah, we are such a fickle bunch.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

A question regarding reviews - I have two accounts with Memebox but the only one I purchased on the second account was Cleopatra. When I submit my review, can I put the email for my main account so all of my points are in one place?

It's great to see other companies jumping into the fray, well except KPop box or whatever it was called, what a nightmare. I wonder if she's gonna put out another, have you heard?

I placed 300.00 in orders with TK since the first part of December, they're filling the void!

They unfortunately don't allow you to do that, however I'm assuming you can just put the review link and your main account e-mail, and rather than put an order number, just check off the "gift" option. Otherwise they'll put the points in the account that purchased the box.
