This is an amazing box! This is what I've always wanted Popsugar to be. I'm a little disappointed in the t-shirt, just because I feel like I won't get to wear it, but other than that I'm stoked!

Slightly off topic, but have any of you ladies seen movement on your tracking info? Mine STILL says pre-shipment, and I'm becoming a bit concerned. It shipped 7 days ago, and according to my tracking it hasn't even left California.

Mine still says pre-shipment, but it departed Compton yesterday.

Doesn't it say departed shipping partner facility on yours?

Okay, you were so right!!!  Thank you thank you thank you for pushing me over the edge with the cost per item breakdown.  This box looks epic!!!!

There are a few things that don't necessarily appeal to me, like the shark's tooth necklace, but I'm sure I won't have any trouble selling or swapping them!  Even if I just threw the things I didn't want in my closet and forgot about them, the box is more than worth it's price to me!

Can't wait!!!!

So, I did a little digging. These are being sent USPS Package services. According to the USPS site:

"You can enhance the service and convenience of Package Services by adding extra services such as insurance and USPS Tracking. These services are available for a small fee."

I'm just assuming that they didn't pay that fee so they aren't obligated to tell us where the package is.

Mine still says Pre-shipment as well but left Compton on Tuesday. I'm hoping it's moving and that it just hasn't been updated. When I order from Hello Apparel my tracking does this and doesn't update until after I receive my package.

You're welcome! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm glad I convinced myself with that breakdown too!

Ahhh, thank you! THat is so helpful. Sorry, I haven't meant to complain about this, but a girl gets anxious when spoilers like this come out! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm just dying for this box. So maybe we'll get it Saturday?

Having said that, why the heck would they give us a tracking number if we can't track it! We just can't win. sigh.

 

[Saffyra]

If your box says its still in preshipment or whatever, it probably means it is going out TOMORROW.  The CS guy is an angel and told me that.  One shipment went out last friday and the rest go out tomorrow /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I'm SO EXCITED for this box!! I love pretty much everything!  Aaaahhhh, I can't believe I have to wait until Monday or Tuesday to get this!  (Mine is one of the ones that ships out tomorrow, for all of us people who ordered late).

I think I'm just gonna stay subscribed to this because like someone said earlier, I think people are clamoring to have their products in this box since its such good publicity /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Would love to know!

Thanks

MUY Cool T-shirt â€“ I only wear plain tshirts. Muy bleh!
Sara Beltran Shark Tooth Necklace â€“ Makes the box for me, love it.
Nail Polish OPI full size Greenade â€“ My favourite colour.
C Wonder Bangle â€“ Not my style. At all.
Revives moisturizing renewal serum â€“ Can’t wait to try it!
Wallet from Charming Charlies â€“  Have a nicer one, will trade this.
LAFCO Soap â€“ Love nice soap.
Tom Ford sample â€“ I never turn down perfume samples.
Philosophy Time In A Bottle Serum â€“ Looking forward to it.
Laura Mercier Bonne Mine Compact â€“ Meh, I’m too pale for this.
Donkey Tea â€“ Sounds adorable, I love tea. 

X pen ballpoint Pen â€“ Cat lost my best pen, been wanting a new one.
Graphic Image Notebook â€“ Love it! Hoping for green.
Johnathan Adler Picture Frame â€“ Beautiful! Love JA.
Small poster Fausto Puglisi Collage â€“ Curious to see it
March edition of Marie Claire â€“ Nice addition. 

I don't love everything, but didn't expect to. I felt guilty for ordering, but I'd be kicking myself now if I hadn't. 

This box seems really different from others, because it's such an odd mix of luxury items and inexpensive (but nice) things. The dollar value is high even without crazily inflated prices. NG definitely knows how to pull some strings.

I agree. I like most of these things. I'm going on vacation to a tropical location in April, so, I'll try and make use of that shark tooth necklace. And I'm excited for the tea and a made for Nina Garcia nail polish!!

I've gotten one box from Bianca Jade (MizzFit). I thought it was pretty wonderful. I paid $50 and got $135 worth of product (and $123 worth of product I'll use). I think I'll stay subscribed for her next box. 

 

[hitchcockblonde]

So excited about this box! I tried SO hard not to look today since I know my box will probably get here tomorrow, and I wanted to be surprised....but I can never do it. LOL. Such a fun and fabulous assortment!

I'm a visual spoiler-seeker lol I need pictures asap. I am sooo grateful for what has been given thus far but I wouldn't be a true subscriber if I didn't always want more lmbo!

I hear you on this .. also  sometime I am not sure about something till I actually get it.

Look at this!

http://www.marieclaire.com/fashion/nina-garcia-five-years



Read the bottom, there are links to items in the Quarterly Box, and there could be variations! Like a skull bracelet instead of hearts, or a different JA frame.

This must be the pen style:

http://www.x-penpal.com/collections/lord.html

And there may be shirt variations...

I would not be caught dead in any of those shirts, but I can see the 'live work fiesta' one being cute on somebody else. The others... wellllll....
