the sad part is anyone who honestly believes what she says without looking at MUT will fall for these bullying/scare tactics. i'm sorry but any reputable business person wouldn't have to resort to saying these types of things. she and her minions act like she's owning up to her problems and trying to make them right, but the hostility she has shown towards legitimate dissatisfaction is the complete opposite.

Someone please translate this (from the website) out of crazytalk:
"Engaging in conduct that would constitute a criminal offense or give rise to civil liability or otherwise violate any law or regulation All products delivered in a Red Carpet Box are at the sole discretion of Red Carpet Box and can be subject to change or replacement at the sole discretion of Red Carpet Box. If any product is determined to be unsatisfactory by Red Carpet Box in its sole discretion, can be returned for a replacement item, after written authorization has been provided by Red Carpet Box, of a product of equal or greater value, also determined at the sole discretion of Red Carpet Box."
When I see "sole discretion" thrown around like confetti that much, this is the "sole" I imagine doing the discretion-ing:

I would buy from a classy broad like you if I liked what you had to offer. From a quick read of your blog, I can see that you are an open, intelligent and reasonable person, and as a buyer you have the experience, judgment and connections to help you do a much better job than Patty did at starting and running a beauty box business. So, give it lots of thought and planning and see what you come up with.
I am fine with small samples rather than full-sized items. It keeps the price point low, and I get to try lots of new products. But, may I suggest that you purchase samples of new, upcoming products. What I love about the successful beauty boxes is that I get to try new products, and quality luxury products that I would not normally spend money on unless I know that they will work for me.
So, good luck with your idea. I'm sure that the ladies here on MUT would be happy to provide you with feedback on your ideas. Perhaps one day I will open up my mailbox and find my Classy Broad Box!

Oh my gosh! After reading all day about Patty and her beauty box business, I am inspired to start my own business. I will send out samples of anti aging products. I'm going to call it The Old Bag.

Being a 'Subscription Box' junkie myself, I am always tempted when new Sub Boxes come out. To me, there are 2 major factors to a successful box:
1. The Products and
2. Good Customer Service
When I first joined MUT, I didn't have a Birchbox sub. But I read lots of posts about how BB's customer service was great, and that really pushed me into subbing BB. In the back of my mind, I was thinking that if I had issues, at least the CS would be there to do something about it. Because of that, I am more willing to let certain things on the Products-end to slide, should it come to that.
From reading all the posts in this thread, it seems that Red Carpet Box lacks both. For that reason, it's a FAIL for me, and I won't be subbing.

I am now so incredibly happy that I did not sign up for this sub, especially after I got scammed with Box Monthly. And from personal experience every single pair of Betsey Johnson sunglasses I have (and I have a few) always come in a pink case with a sticker on the glasses and a tag. Definitely not authentic ones in this bag.

I think everyone who wants to file a paypal dispute needs to submit the photos of the counterfeit glasses on eBay with their pair noted.
I can't prove that my items are expired (discontinued, yes) so I won't be making a PayPal claim. I will just have to call this a wash.
The glasses I received are also not included in the ebay photo.

You can prove it. Which items did you get? If you got the avon eyeliner go to my blog and take the screenshot of the email they sent me. If you got Stila products call them and ask them and once they confirm they are expired ask them to send you an email stating so and send that to paypal as well.

Right! I was even telling my mom about this "Box" and realized for the amount of money she ask I can purchase from the Sephora Sale site and off better items!! While Profiting and also maintaining happy customers!
