Quarterly Co Nina Garcia *SPOILERS*

[eallen014]

I just got my box and it had one variation - I got the bracelet with skulls.

Mine has been like this too. I am so close to Compton its killing me because I know it will not take more than 2 days to reach me once it starts moving!

I hope it's been moving and just hasn't updated for us. I'm all the way in FL and so want to receive this box already!

I am so jealous of you! I got the heart one so I was assuming it was the only variation :/

I emailed them. I figured in 4 days my box should have some movement. I am hoping they can give me more updated info on their side. I think it's more than likely that it is moving and USPS is just not scanning it in but if it's lost, I don't want to wait another week to sort it out.

maybe this was mentioned before but what are those little tabs on the makeup compact?  Is that like fold out directions??  Also, love the wallet, love!

The tabs are pull out cards that tell you how to use the palette /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Mine arrived to the post office this afternoon, so I will probably get it tomorrow. I'm all the way in NY, so those of you who had their box stuck in departed shipping partner facility, it will probably pop up in the post office in a day or so.

I am not sure how I feel about this box. Like, I like the variety in the box and the contents but I'm not sure about each item itself. Not sure if that makes sense. For example, I love that she put a necklace in the box but I'm not sure I love THAT necklace. I like that there is a wallet in the box but am unsure about the wallet she chose. I haven't gotten my box yet so hopefully I'll be more appreciative of what's in there once I get my hands on it. If not, I might actually sell this box. But let's not get ahead of ourselves just yet.... /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I wish I would have gotten in on the first box but I still think about that little fur neck stole scarf dealie.

I agree with what you're saying.  I actually like the box overall, but I still don't see how the necklace can be valued at what it is...

Here's my last two items worth posting...

Got the pink notebook which I'm happy about because pink is my fave color.  And my picture frame didn't have and scuffs on the front that I could see... just weird dust particles.  One of the back tabs that keeps the back of the frame in place broke off though because it's really flimsy.  For a split second I though about emailing and bringing it to their attention, but then saw that it was just $12 from JCP and just felt like it wasn't worth the hassle for me, personally.  Plus the back stays in place just fine, still and no one will see the back of it anyway.  Perfect addition to my bedroom /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

If I get the skulls, I would trade you!

I think I like your frame better! XD But it's interesting that yours cost only $12... I think mine had a price tag for $15.

 

[MissKellyC]

Got mine!! My variations were the pointed bangle (love!!), red notebook (wanted pink, but red is good too) and the chevron pattern frame. It has a couple of scuffs, but nothing I'll complain about. It'll be great for when I move out! My tee however has a hole in it. I'm debating contacting CS about it though... I'm honestly not even sure if I'll wear it...???

 

[MKSB]

Mine still says "ready" on the Quarterly site and I haven't gotten a shipping email. Should I be worried?

 

[wisconsinbeth]

Mine is here!!!!  WOOT!  One of the first this time after getting mine a good month after everyone else last quarter /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />   My thoughts:

First for the variations -

I LOVE my bracelet - it is a pave elephant.  So whimsical - LOVE IT!!!!

Picture Frame - Chevron.  this is much bigger than I had thought.  It had some weird dust - but it brushed right off.   I like it - but it doesn't really match anything in my house.  So, I'm on the fence whether I care or if it's close enough.

Notebook:  I got yellow.  It is small and cute and perfect for the purse.

Everything else:

Necklace - like this a lot better in person then than in the spoilers.  Still agree with everyone else - no way I'd spend $100 on it, but I'll wear it.  From the spoilers I wasn't sure if I would - it's a lot smaller than I thought.  It'll make a great layer necklace with a more casual outfit.

Serums - We'll have to see on these.  I generally like more natural products, but in my younger years had some good luck with Philosophy products (in my late 20's).  Good value here though regardless.

Wallet - it's pretty.  Sure it's a lower quality item - but really what did we expect in a box with 15 items??  I think it will easily last a season if not more.  I'll use it.

Soap - not positive about the scent - but I'll always use soap.

Polish - so excited to try this out!  Probably will put it on today.

Tea - I'll use it.

Perfume sample - very small.  I'll throw this in my travel bag.

Pen - it's a pen.  Nothing too special but I can always use one.

Poster - well, it's a poster.  It will be thrown away....unless someone on here says they want it.....

Laura Mecier - SO EXCITED to try this.

After getting this box in person - it's going to be hard for the PS Resort box to beat it.....

Your bracelet variation sounds cute! I have a feeling that for me personally, the PS LE Resort box will beat out the NGQ2 box.... I'm more excited about the spoilers we've seen for that box vs. the contents of Nina's.

I hope you're right on the PS Resort.  I've been trying to stay away from the spoilers so I only know about the towel.......which I think I will definitely like!

I saw that on the site and was wondering if anyone would get it! That's the only variation I might keep, even though I don't like gold. 

This box would be hard for PS to top. I think this box and the resort box will be very different from each other. I'm hoping the resort box is very relaxing and spa-like, as the pinterest board suggested. I hope the curation is great and all the items have that dreamy getaway feel. If so, I'll feel justified in getting both,  and they'd be hard to directly compare. Thinking ahead though, I can't afford to regularly spend $200 on boxes, even months apart, and right now I am leaning towards keeping NG. Though I might sit the next round out entirely as summer items are often a miss for me.

Hello Ladies, For Those who are worried about shipping (like I have been) I put in a request for any updates on my package status yesterday because it was still reading left Compton as of 3/19/2014 and I live across the country in Massachusetts.  Well this morning I got two emails one stating that it was received by my local post office and the second that it was out for delivery.

Keep the faith!

 

[bevin79]

Got my box!! My shipping wasn't updating either, so it was a surprise! Got the elephant version of the bracelet. Love it!!

Thank you! I subscribed also but still no movement. Hopefully soon!
