That is all im saying - dont let the opinion of 4(?) unhappy people posting over and over, sway your own opinion. even if 5 were unhappy, that leaves 45 that were pleased,and percentage wise, thats GREAT for any company let alone a brand new company. I firmly believe in her and her business and think you ladies that are trying to keep your products & get your money back (reguardless of if you "threw them away" or not) are going to regret your decision to make so much noise instead of maturely try to work it out with the owner. I will be sure to post updates on the next box, and im sure its going to be awesome.

ALSO, I offered to buy a pair of earrings that someone was displeased with and was told she wants $30 for them!! you paid $25 for 5 items and said you think they are cheap so why ask me for $30!?

this whole thing SCREAMS shady that you guys want free items and to get your money back which is sad.

I UNDERSTAND THE EXPIRED ITEMS, but as far as not liking them or doubing if they are authentic? thats a risk you take with any box!

I have a lot of experience with paypal and let me tell you, its not going to fly and you guys can lose your account for filing false disputes so i hope you think with your own head before you follow the lead of someone trying to be greedy.

hahaha. I really doubt your first statement. As for taking risks with boxes, I subscribe to multiple boxes and authenticity and quality are two things I'm not concerned about because these companies have sound backing from investors and work with makeup, skincare, etc. companies directly to acquire samples and products. And if any problems should arrive (and they have), I have found their customer service to be unbiased and objective, courteous, and helpful.  Also, your experience with paypal should tell you that they are very pro-customer and there is more than enough evidence for anyone to prove her paypal claim and receive a legitimate  and not ill gotten refund.

If she has nothing to hide, she should post permissions for the email to be posted. its $350, $500 or $750 for "advertising" and deleting negative things etc - each level has a specific "plan" for success of the business.

Um, the ToS CLEARLY states that companies are NOT to post about their products unless they are paying for advertising space; this is NOT uncommon. There is a MMU maker here who does not discuss her line FOR THAT EXACT reason.

I really don't get where this is coming from. No one here has said they want free items, they just want the items they thought they were paying for, not expired or possibly fake items.

Just wondering, are you referring to your offer to me to buy the earrings from me? bc just in case i never told you a number, i told you to make me an offer... Just saying just in case...

Also no one is trying to get free items. everyone here is willing to return everything for a refund. & i think i can speak for everyone in terms of that. o think you people against us expressing ourselves negatively about the company keep turning our words against us and misinterpreting us to make us look bad and RCB as the victim. That is shady!

I have no idea who anyone is based on screen names. a few of you got the same earrings so i dont know. however, you cannot speak for everyone because one of the main complaints, told her she could not return the items because she "threw them away" and wants her money back. surely anyone can see that there isnt any way to refund something like that.

many of you have already confirmed they are authentic.... you have the option not to pay for your box. shes telling you whats in it, make an educated decison. i have no doubt mine are authentic, they say the brand in 3 places on them.

We have a lot of members who love or absolutely hate what they receive in their sub boxes. Some of them love it one month and hate the same box the next. In August I saw a ton of people extremely unhappy with a very popular box around here (myself included). Tons of people still sub to that box because they did like it. This forum has always allowed us to post not just facts but our opinions, good or bad about products. We are passionate about it because we love it. We always tell each other when things go bad because a lot of members have lost cash on freshly started subscriptions. We warn each other. Having said that, when a few of us start oooohing and aaahhhing over a new box, we also promote it because we want to share the goodies.

Isn't the next box exactly the same as the first? Minus the Stila products, I guess.

Which are frequently more complaint than anything else! That said, BB hasn't been a total punk-up as this was.

And MyGlam and Beauty Army, let's not forget Sample Society, The Look Bag, Beauty Box 5, Test Tube, QVC Test Tube.... without a fail there is always someone who absolutely HATES their box (I can recall several past posts of people saying they threw their whole BB away) or people who absolutely LOVE the products.

 

[Roxstar]

I hate to put it this way because, I believe that Patty had no ill will (at first), regardless if she was just trying to make a quick buck by buying lots and reselling (nothing wrong with that if they are what was promised and safe to use) or that she honestly believed in what she was doing. I personally think that a $25 refund for expired cosmetics would be cheaper than the doctor bills of someone unaware, who had trust in a "business" to provide fresh products as promised. We aren't just talking about sunglasses here; we are talking about things that either go on our face, in/around our eyes, or on our lips. Completely unacceptable and dangerous.

I will say that I believe and, am grateful that MUT has such honest ladies who most likely are NOT looking for drama. They and I, just don't want to see anyone get hurt or scammed. And this (because it apparently matters) is coming from someone who did purchase a box.

 

[kawaiimeows]

am i the only one who finds it highly suspicious that all these supporters of red carpet come in acting like they have inside knowledge about it, even though they are allegedly just customers too.

Too be honest, it's not the people who are unhappy that's giving me a negative opinion about her company. It's the people who are defending her... I don't need a sob story, info about her personal life, her illness, etc. Business is business.

And what's up with the hostility coming from those who are defending her?

Honestly, I would have given this box a chance like i do with the other sub boxes(pink package and boxmonthly) out there, but now, nope, not so much. The way she handles customers is very unprofessional... I can understand if she deletes comments on her facebook page(like glossybox), but sending legal threats through messages because of a bad review? seriously? And then attacking an admin who stayed quiet...

Also, based on your video, how can a purse fit that small flat rate priority box? If she had the intention of sending the purses in the first place, she would have at least sent a slightly bigger box. I believe her reason for not sending out the purses in the first place was because the purses don't fit... well no wonder...

I don't see her company sincere at all. 25 boxes is not hard to manage. She would have caught those expired items, planned accordingly so everything that was promised was sent, and be more professional towards her customers if she really was sincere. 

 

[DiorAdora]

Every time I read a new update it just has me rolling on the floor lol style! So she advertised her company to start off with 50 special vip spots! She shipped out our boxes took extrea 25 slots and has upgraded the box for them with things that were suppost to be in the origianl boxes ! This has become the biggest joke! 

 

[nelliebelle1197]

How do you know 45 were pleased? Not everyone who was displeased is posting here or even knows about this place. And as to your previous comment about the box content, we all know where the legitimate companies get their products- through vendor relationships. They don't buy cheap wholesale lots and expired products off shady websites and eBay. There is no way to produce quality boxes and stay in business without relationships with vendors who mass produce samples for promotional purposes.

As to your unfounded accusations against Zadi, please provide proof. I have seen the vitriol your beloved Patty spewed at members here, calling them names and insulting them. Mods here had conversations screen capped, then sent to them. You cannot expect to have any reasonable person to take you seriously if you refuse to provide proof.

And didn't the PoshPod woman have an autistic son? Can you explain why personal circumstances matter or give you a pass on professionalism?

[yousoldtheworld]

There were more unhappy people...I saw myself MULTIPLE people post about being disappointed on FB, which she promptly deleted.

And yes, that's just what everyone here wants - free expired cosmetics, dollar store earrings, and a free eye infection! Good call!
