Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

[biancardi]

They did. They are now requiring a order number for all reviews. I am waiting for points on reviews I submitted last week. 

Yep waiting too.

me three....

I always have order numbers, that isn't the problem.  They also are no longer accepting reviews for products that are over 20.00 (like they did before) - only boxes or sets that have 2 or more products in it.   And only USA boxes - I still have 4 outstanding items - detox & renew, tea 2, secret key value set and the upcoming seeds & flowers.  That kinda blows.  I will still review them, points or no

 

[Jane George]

Only us? Geez

 

[Jane George]

Btw can anyone tell me the order of dates on products...

I have an expiry date(I know it is expiry) of 20150106 is that first of june or sixth of jan?

It is secret key btw

Not sure if same as cleomee as that is year month then day which makes it expired.

well i totally understand the blocking of the reviews from last year ,they had plenty of time to unbox and review till now, we was told before in october time you couldn't send in reviews and such for older boxes any longer, certain people have spammed up the town with old  boxes purely out of greed so they can get the money conversion, quite rightly they should be denied, .

am i reading you right @@biancardi i can not review my flowers and valentine box for points now , i knew my lb14 would arrive too late, 

has there been another email as i just got the soothing sister one and a reply from lauren,

no, no email - I am just reading the review FAQ which got updated recently...

 

[biancardi]

She just responded to me - that was a mistake (the USA only boxes...) She took that out line out.

 

[Jane George]

you know, I never thought of that - I thought it was always CCYY-MM-DD, so 01-06-2015

but I don't know now - lol

edited to add - 01-06-2015 is the way yanks write it - so January 6, 2015

reading that i have till the 20 th to post my last bundle review and it will be done by then so i then ask for paypal balance conversion points to money,still, 

so i wonder if the people pumping out boxes from before november have been told now their too late,

I understand the need to limit the timeframe for the reviews, but making the deadline November 1 purchases seems a bit close to me... November 1 shipping makes more sense, I think... There are boxes I purchased in October that I didn't receive until January.

ETA: This is just an observation, I am not really angry about this or anything.

My cleomee says 20170214 so unless long year that one is month second. Might have to go on secret key hunt tomorrow to see if I can find out.

i thought it was like america backwards to the uk, we are 20/12/2015  and i thought it was 2015/12/20 but I've seen it recently on other korean and japanese as  2015/20/12

 

[Jane George]

So could be either grrr lol

yeah, I don't understand it myself, but I did see a lot of really old reviews on my bloglovin' pop up last week - haha

 

[Jane George]

Tbh I can't remember what I did last week let alone in November

No worries, I'm definitely not offended. I haven't kept up with my blog very well, and while I submitted 2 reviews from boxes I purchased before November last week (Wine & Cheese and Green Food), I had no intentions of going back and reviewing a whole bunch for points... the time and effort are not worth $3 to me.

And no, they weren't restocks, I had a couple of boxes get caught up in the shipping debacle before the holidays. My Tea Tree Cosmetics box (which I purchased in October) shipped 11/26 and was delivered in January, Black Out was also purchased in October, shipped at the beginning of December and wasn't delivered until the end of December, same with Lucky Box 11. It just seems to me that the purchase date requirement is a bit strict considering the long wait time there sometimes is between purchasing and shipping coupled with the amount of time it can take to ship boxes internationally.

What I'm wondering now is what Memebox plans to do about reviews that were submitted before today from boxes purchased before November. It seems to me that they should honor the guidelines that were posted when the reviews were submitted... but who knows!

I agree. Especially when there are issues with weather and also the local delivery service as well...

It should have been ship date, not purchase date.

oh wow was that to do with the long showman problems ,wow that seems a nightmare ,where as ours fly into the uk by plane go through customs and then van and lorry to us,do i presume in america they enter via boat ,so if they were held up does that mean the boats can't even unload they sit in the sea or harbour all that time waiting for their go,

will memebox have this issue with getting goods into usa to sell as well then because that could be a bad business plan in the long run,and we thought shipping took weeks in december january for us,
