The big thing that seems to have caught people up has been using the same promo code that stated they were supposed to be one per customer -- like the Blitz bag promo code -- multiple times. I've made multiple small-dollar orders (including one for $6 this morning), and I haven't been banned yet. If I do, well, a very nasty letter will go out, and then I will take my money elsewhere. I can't think of a single thing they carry that I can't live without or find elsewhere. (In related news, I should go on a no-buy for anything sold at Sephora anyway.)
Yeah, honestly, I haven't heard about it as much either, but I also know the girls on the Sephora boards have kind of given up even talking about it, and whenever there's a spin-off board created for a specific topic here, then, well, it's dead in the water, lol. Not that I'm arguing, I can understand the topic needed to be moved, but even I have a hard time finding it/getting around on these boards and I'm not new here, so who knows. But I do agree- it's DEF calmed down, whether this was caused by a) girls exaggerating (which I personally try to give the benefit of the doubt) B) it's because of promo codes and the promos haven't been as amazing lately, c) Sephora actually FIXED IT or d) other, I dunno, but I really hope this is a sign that things are getting better!
