Wonder if those purses are the ones we were SUPPOSED to get?  Or do they even really exist? Seems like she promises to put lots of things in the packages but somehow has a reason for them to not be in there after you have paid her.

Her ebay shipment probably hadn't arrived yet

As far as me finding out about jessicas LOST paypal dispute, yes I was told because I am assisting her with some of her business needs since i myself have owned and operated my own businesses for the past 8 years.

You did recieve $80 valued earrings. RETAIL value, it doesnt matter if she paid a penny, they are retail valued as $80 - therefore it was not fraud. and since when does dollar store carry earrings? I've said it MANY times, i have sensitive ears and these did NOT make them sore, i cant use anything but real gold, or surgical steel and ive had mine in since Thursday with NO issues so, they may LOOK/feel cheap as far as some plastic parts but they are good earrings.

Her distributor has guaranteed the sunglasses are authentic and paypal has that proof.

as far as any EXCHANGES go, you would need to mail back the EXPIRED/DAMAGED (only items subject to being exchanged) to the address on the box (You know, her home address - look up her mansion on trulia, she doesnt need $2.50 a box, trust me!) and she can ship you an exchanged product.

Id really have hoped you ladies would have read into things. you take a chance with any box of getting items you dont like. for $25, you got sunglasses, jewelry, full sized brand name nail polish, avon eye liner and a stila cosmetic (all of the remaining have been returned for a refund BTW since the distributor was at fault - shes also personally checking all items now, she trusted this dealer not to ship her expired goods but is aware shes been ripped off and is taking every measure to ensure it doesnt happen again to her or to any of her subscribers!!)  - Like ive said, this is her DREAM. she was screwed over by the look bag and wants to do better than they did with her. Back off and let her fix things without attacking.

Paypal wont leave the merchant without her goods and her funds, the protection goes both ways.

You are not helping your friend at all.  And any of us can pay $100+ to become a "consultant" with a company, pass out some catalogs, and call ourselves a business owner. (And honestly, I'd be embarrassed to call myself a business owner if I did not know how to use an apostrophe, but, maybe that's just me.)  It doesn't automatically qualify you to help other companies with their "business needs" and judging by the commentary on the Facebook page today ... none of the advice this woman is receiving is being taken.

Wow.  Took me an hour to get caught up on this thread!  Wanted to post so I can get updates.

Sorry to all the ladies affected by this.  I had a moment's regret in passing on this one but now I feel relieved!

I am also happy to be surrounded by like minded beauty lovers who watch out for others!

Keep up the good work!

 

[bluelion]

Are the pink purses on the main page the ones she was meant to send? If so, not really my cup of tea anyway. If she continues purchasing the same kind of quality cosmetics/accessories in bulk, $25 is certainly way too much per month, even if they are full size products. Knowing where the products are likely coming from, I'd say $10 or $12 would be a fairer price. In addition to that, she should consistently disclose whether or not products are discontinued or expired. I see that she's toned down her return policy now. Scratch that, her mission statement on facebook is still the same.

But she definitely should've been more careful about copying and pasting from Ipsy. What stylists?

 

[glamourdolleyes]

She'll read it here.  /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

She called me out for not complaining about my items until today. I told her I was out of town until Sunday and she would know this since I posted it on mut and she frequents there. She said I'm the "frequent flyer", not her. @@

You'd think that having a husband who runs/owns a Groupon-style website, along with all her money that her friends have alluded to .... she'd have a decent website.

Thats what I thought too.

I think I've stayed silent long enough. This is the first time I've been burned by a sub service. And I am also her sole Canadian customer. Yes I'm the unlucky duck who had to learn the $40 lesson. Everything has just gotten so bizzare so fast. I don't even know if its worth asking for an exchange of products because I don't want more discontinued makeup. I want to write a post warning all my Canadian readers about this but now I have to look out for threats of legal action for having an opinion? And the new mission statement sounds more stand-offish and intimidating more than customer service oriented. A huge blow to the company's already teetering reputation. What to do??!!

Laws in each country vary however most have a freedom of speech. So long as you stick to the facts you're fine. Make your review. If she threatens you it's just that a threat.

I would just file with paypal. If you win I believe you'd have to pay return shipping but patty would have to return the original shipping to you along with the purchase price. I'm not sure but does she get in trouble with paypal after so many disputes are filed against her?

 

[zadidoll]

Since she's in Canada it would be what Canadian laws require when it comes to shipping products back for a refund.

http://www.econsumer.gov/english/ -- for those in Canada who were scammed see if you can file a complaint against Red Carpet Box on EConsumer.gov's website.

 

[Flyergrl48]

I've stayed quiet for awhile just thinking I would chalk it up toa lesson learned! So today I posted on her FB page that I wanted her to take me off her list and she told me she couldn't do it until she fixed my dispute. I told her I didn't have one and that I was just disappointed with the box. I was trying to be nice but she wasn't getting it. I finally told her I hated the glasses and the mail polish was just blah and they Avon I can get from my mother inlaw. Still not sure if she took me off or not. I don't think she deleted my post which surprises me.

 

[zadidoll]

I saw that. You might want to have your mother-in-law double check to make sure the Avon item isn't expired. Some people's products were expired.

 

[Hellocat4]

I'm so sorry, queen, that's a lot of $. Please file a dispute. That is just wrong. I am guessing Canada has even more stringent laws regarding expired products (many other countries take that very seriously). I would also guess her offense is worse since it involves crossing a border and possibly customs? I'm not trying to be dramatic- I know it isn't a large scale crime, but I am just saying you probably have more than a leg to stand on when it comes to getting your money back. Also, she needs to remove that ipsy-inspired/copied statement. Her own writing (on the threat-based warning) is very elementary, so the contrast really stands out. $25 is way expensive, when you consider the sub market. I thought my glossybox was high- this chick is totally ripping people off. After seeing all of her threats against customers, and unprofessional mut fb posts on her timeline, I have concluded that she is Not the "good person" her cohorts claimed. I couldn't sleep at night if I knowingly ripped anybody off.

 You fail as a facebook detective my dear but nice try!! You can't list multiple jobs on facebook. How about you dig deeper? And by the way, a starter kit is $275, I have a tax ID and business license, and that ISN'T my only business

 

[nelliebelle1197]

This is just weird. The Posh Pod people were obvious grifters. I honestly think the Box Monthly lady has some serious issues. But this one is odd and delusional.
