POPSUGAR Must Have January 2013 Box

[Beauty-Flawed]

Question for those of you who have referral boxes, when it came time for your referral box did it say paid next to it's status or did it say referral?

 

[Lori Harp]

Mine says processing also! I sure hope the January box is great or I may have to cancel my subscription. I was not happy with the luxury box!!

 

[ricarlav]

I'm processing too! This had better be a great box to make up for the joke that was December. I subscribed to get my first ever Glossybox too!

My box this month says "(paid)" and this is a free box for me because of refferals.  Last month mine said "30.00" under the charge column.

Anyone else notice that under "Shipped On" it says "processing," instead of giving a BS date? Looks like they've been listening!

I totally noticed that! Now we won't think our boxes shipped when they haven't!

 

[cmello]

they always have the processing on tthere.. most likely its already shipped or  been picked up and they usually then update it aftert they send out the emails from what i've experienced in the past

Mine is processing too!

And I am still at $35.00/month, cause my state (MD) doesn't require taxing online purchases from other states. It you live in CA (where PS is based), or one of the states where tax is required, you will be charged the $35.00 plus tax. It isn't random.

Mine shows that too!!  I wonder when it will actually ship? My historical ship dates show:

08/28 (don't know when received, tracking number expired.)

09/28 (don't recall when it was received, tracking number expired)

10/18 (received 10/24)

11/12 (received 11/16) 

12/07 (received 12/15)

Awesome thanks for the help! Mine says paid next to it as well and it's a referral box.

Past months it has shown a date under "Ship Date" and "Processing" under Tracking, but after days and weeks of "Processing" with no tracking number we all figured out that the ship date was pretty much made up, and a lot of people complained about it giving false hope... what I was saying is it looks like they finally paid attention and aren't listing a ship date until the box actually ships!

I had a response from them 12/11 about something ... I replied to it that same day and never heard back.  I replied to it again this week (Tuesday) and still have not received a response.   /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Do you live in California?  You get your boxes rather quickly, I'm jealous!

Its funny that you mention that because when I reply back to the e-mails they send and ask me to reply back, I never hear back from them either, its really aggravating.  Why ask me to reply back when you have no intention of getting back to me. Ugh!!!!!

I live in central Arkansas. It usuallt takes 3 or 4 days from the time I get a tracking number to the time FedEx actually shows any movement (those dates are from the fedex tracking). August and September, I got mine DAYS after everyone else. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Exactly!!! So irritating! And they always come from the generic email address, which I can understand, but they never sign their name!

 

[OiiO]

Ahhh I'm still on the wait list so I'll be the last one to know if I get the box this month or not /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

You know what is strange? I live a couple of hours from the shipping site in CA, and I receive my box after almost everyone else. Every time. It drives me batty!

With the way Popsugar ships, we here in CA often receive boxes after most people. The one time we live close to where boxes ship from, the company actually tries to make an effort for all subscribers to receive their boxes around the same time lol. I wish Birchbox and GB would follow suit - those of us on the west coast would receive boxes closer to the beginning of the shipping cycle!

I'm thinking about how I am not that excited about the January box and I think this is due to the December and Luxury boxes.  While I like having awesome mugs for tea and fancy soap and lotion, I think I have forgot about how excited we all were with September's Must Have.  I think they need another awesome box to get the hype back up!  And to keep us renewing our subscriptions...
