Sample Society

I am wondering when we will get the magazine???? If we cancel do we still get the Allure??? LOL

Im actually more excited about the year subscription than this box. Although they did put some high end products that you would find in sephora/neiman marcus (impressive) its too much skin care and none of that I can use.

actually now that i think of it I like 2 of the samples, the perfume (oscar de la renta -WIN) and dermalogica (has rave reviews everywhere) so i MIGHT keep it. 

Packaging will be the deal breaker

I opened it to view the tracking and BAM there was the list right there!!!

LOL, me too. Totally wasn't expecting that. I sort of expected it to be on our Dashboard at some point, but didn't think they'd tell us in the email. Oh well. Then, I immediately ran over here to see if anyone had posted it. I didn't want to ruin it for anyone and was gonna offer to share privately, but alas, it was already here /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Next month we all will know better haha.

I'm excited! Is the perfume a bigger size than a usual sample? I thought I read that somewhere???

Birchbox is a must have imho, the points system and the samples are always a fun surprise. Some months arent great but the good months are really good!

Birchbox is the only box amongst my subs I would keep if I had to choose only one.

Good customer service is an added bonus! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I also just received this email with the same contents. Hmm. Not really stoked about the amount of skincare I've been receiving lately across companies (probably the LAST thing I want to sample because I have a regime that works so reliably for me), but probably will hold out a little longer.

Just got an invite to Birchbox today after being on the waiting list for quite a while, so it would be between these two. I keep hearing such mixed things about BB though, so I'll prob let the invite expire and keep this one for a bit unless someone can confirm that BB is an absolute must-have.

Got an email from Sample Society saying that my box has shipped! And with a tracking number. Those looking for a surprise though should beware because they list the contents right under the tracking number!

  But I usually peek anyway, and I am now very very excited about the contents!! My samples are awesome

  Think I'm going to love this one!

Glad to hear they are still sending out shipping info because there still isn't any tracking number in my account! SO anxious about this one.

 

[ahkae]

Does anyone know where they are shipping from at this point?

New Jersey or New York, presumably. They said they have a new york office on FB, so they probably ship out of NJ.

I just got an email from Sample Society detailing what was in our boxes! It looks like 1 Ren Glycolactic Skin Renewal Peel Mask Deluxe sample, Oscar de la Renta perfume sample, Dermalogica daily microfoliant deluxe sample, Fekkai advanced glossing cream deluxe sample, and a Skyn Iceland Relief Eye Pen deluxe sample. 

Hope that helps!

It was on the Beauty Bar facebook. So it looks like we will be getting a rollerball perfume /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Most likely from the page found here: http://www.beautybar.com/p/oscar-de-la-renta-esprit-doscar-eau-de-parfum-deluxe-mini-roller-ball-205408

 

[yanelib27]

Mine says its expected to be at my house by 3/7! thats fast! 

 

[WarPaint1739]

NICE! I love rollerball perfume!!

I'm liking the sound of all these "deluxe samples", not just random freebies I can get from sephora lol. I had a couple samples of the eye cream from sephora and really liked it, so I'll be happy to get some more. not too thrilled about the chemical peels and masks, but at least they're from good-quality established brands.

still haven't charged me and I haven't received shipping info. just sent them an email, their customer service is pretty efficient so hopefully I'll still be able to get this first box..

 

[Playedinloops]

Welp, I'm very impressed with sample society's customer service right now. I emailed at 8:27 wondering why I didn't have a tracking number yet, and I got this respone at 8:34...7 minutes later, an honest, complete, and quick response:

Quote: Thanks for reaching out to us tonight!  I've checked on your order, and the reason you haven't received your tracking information is that, because of all of the Sample Society packages shipping out today, our warehouse got a little behind and it missed the cutoff to be put on today's truck,  You will receive your tracking info once it does ship out; unfortunately it has not yet been generated within our system so I am not able to provide it to you, but you should receive it later tonight or early tomorrow.  Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused!If you have any other questions, comments, concerns or suggestions, please feel free to contact our customer care department by phone (1-800-696-0423) or by email ([email protected]).  We're here to help 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!Have a great day!

What!!! I e-mailed them at 11am about why nothing has been charged, or shipped, and why I don't get their e-mails. I'm SOOO mad at them right now. I'm most likely canceling when I call them tomorrow. I'm sorry to rant but they cant' pick and choose who they respond to.

What address are you emailing? Are you getting the automatic response when you send it in? Since you are the only one who has had these problems, I wonder if your email goes to their spam or something? I'd email again.
