When I've bought Betsey sunglasses at Burlington Coat Factory, they haven't had the sleeves/cases. Now I'm wondering if those were counterfeit.


A sleeve or case does not meant they are counterfit. Just need to know your product, and you should be able to tell the difference.

Large corporate chain stores would have very little risk unless someone did a switch and returned a fake item. You DO want to take care in smaller stores though. Like kiosks in malls. Anyone can open one and sell something. The mall doesn't know any better and won't shut them down unless they are told. I have worked near one in a very famous mall that sold counterfeit handbags and I had to complain a few times to mall management. There's still small Chinese gift stores in the mall with fake chanel earrings and its very easy to find fake hello kitty stuff in a mall. If it doesn't say sanrio on it with the copyright symbol, its fake.

Can we please try to stay on topic and focus on the box and service, thanks everyone!

 

[zadidoll]

As Playedinloops has stated please state on topic folks. I'm going to post a general warning to everyone: no more name calling. The thread is in regards to Red Carpet Box not who has the best education or the most degrees, that is a moot point.

Here are the customer service information for the companies whose products were sent out by RCB:

Betsey Johnson - http://www.betseyjohnson.com/Contact.aspx - note: Betsey Johnson no longer sells accessories such as such sunglasses, purses, etc on their website however they maybe able to determine if the pair a consumer received is counterfeit or legitimate.

I also suggest that a new Red Carpet Box thread be started whenever the next shipment goes out.  Only to discuss that box in particular and any issues or concerns or even rave reviews.  Thank you.

Red carpets facebook has been quiet today. She went from posting every couple hours to nothing. She was supposed to send out more boxes today.

Does anyone know what Facebook's policies are for promoting your business there? I know certain things are not allowable such as running giveaways unless it's through an app. I know thing like advertising sales by a company are not allowed. But what are the full rules?

Apparently they are shipping for sure, and it looks like it'll be the same products, unless this is a new eyeliner? From about eleven hours ago, on their updates of people advertising Red Carpet Box:

3 VERY important annoucments!!

1) Red Carpet Box has 25 boxes ready to ship! its $25 plus $6 for shipping for awesome goods (see my pics posted for examples) Designer Sunglasses, earrings, eye liner, nail polish - EMAIL {deleted}@mac.com if you are interested in this hotness!
2) Tasteful Treasures has challenged me to get some more parties booked to hit a BIG goal. If you cant have a party, you can do a "book" party and just collect orders, just 3 orders of any amount qualifies as a party! I have already asked some of you personally and LOVE that so many of you are willing to help me out!! Book party hostessses are getting FREE shipping, and 20% of sales since they are harder than actual parties! I have a date of 10/20 open for a party and 11/2 - Get an extra $25 hostess points if you take one of those dates! ALSO be entered to win a PINK basket of goods for helping me out!!
3) MEN - Yes, I'm single and have been. I have NO time to be "holla"-d at etc. I have my eyes on the prize and a man is not it right now. its all about Amanda and meeting Amanda's goals right now so dating is taking the back seat. Hit me up in the new year! LOL!!! Unless you wanna do a book party! LOL!!!!
(Had to remove the email addy due to MUT ToS)

 

[bbbrandnewww]

What does dating have to do with her business? and I thought she had some rich lawyer husband?

 

[Loladevil]

I'm confused by that announcement post, is this a post by Patricia, whose email is listed, or Amanda, who apparently is too busy selling useless garbage to date?

 

[Playedinloops]

Its a post by amanda, which I believe was on her own wall and showed up on red carpet box's wall because she tagged them in it. I don't think anything else in it was intended for RCB. 

 

[nelliebelle1197]

Wow, way professional there

 

[tinkerbll695]

From RCBs facebook page:

"Remember, you are getting discontinued Korres eyeshadow, discontinued Avon pencil, Borghese nail lacquer, the boxed earrings at no more than 10.00 in retail value, Betsey Johnson or Big Buddha sunglasses, a purse, and a bonus item AND a Korres lip gloss! The price is 25.00 plus 5.99 shipping and handling."

That just sounds horrible....

 on the post that caryatid posted:

why does she refer to herself as Amanda in 3rd person? Is the red box owner Amanda or Patty? Are they the same person?

 

[classybroad]

opps never mind i see now

 

[Honicakes]

I wonder if she included her pyramid-scheme-esq "parties" in her business experience?  If so, then I am doubly unimpressed. 

 

[Loladevil]

I'm always looking for new subscriptions, in fact signed up for several based on recommendations from you ladies but I'll steer clear of this one.

 

[Playedinloops]

Again, let's stay on topic ladies. Amanda's business doesn't have much to do with red carpet box! Thanks again.

 

[bluelion]

I'm glad that she's disclosing that the cosmetics are discontinued, but I'd still worry about expiration dates without knowing the actual item. Confused as to who'd be interested in getting discontinued items, but at least they know going into it. Still concerned about the glasses, though. She hasn't acknowledged that they might be fake, unless she's convinced they're not? But still think the price is too high.
