(Spoilers) Julep November 2013

[Lolo22]

See, my thinking is that for $26 on amazon I can buy a wall rack that holds 100 polishes, probably more if many of them are juleps. Edited to add: I realize that wall racks are not a suitable option for everyone. This just applies to me and the way my mind works.

I ended up buying a wall rack.  Mostly because I feel like I get a better sense of what colors I own if they are in front of my face - lol.  I can fit two Juleps in each slot, one in front of the other as well as many more across the shelf.

I made a wall rack this summer for about $5 and it's hanging in my closet. It has helped me avoid purchasing a lot of dupes/too simular colors.

Still waiting on my mystery box...It hasn't moved in 6 days now.

Just got my first ever Maven box. One of the colors was incorrect, so I called to clear that up. Now I try the Luxe Repair and it is pumping out funny, I look inside and no tube is connected on the pump. Is it supposed to be this way? I would think there would have to be a tube. I feel weird trying to call back, and if I dump the product out to try and find a tube I will waste so much product, grrr.

I feel for you!  Today is the 8th business day since I received my tracking number and it finally moved this morning.  DHL is quite painful.  I really hope the wait was worth it and we both get versions we like!

I finally got my box today! I got version 3. I'm not the biggest fan of 3 of the colors I got, but at least I didn't get any dupes.

In the main section it will hold 48' then there is a side section that looks like it holds 9-10 more.

I would need more space. It's cute tho.

If I wasn't planning on moving soon I would total go this route. My storage is close to max and the draws are getting heavy.

I've had bottles like that before. It uses some sort of suction something or other to pull the product up and out of the spout. Usually the product will have an inner thingy on the bottom of the product that raises as the product is dispensed.

I'm lousy at describing things...I'm sure I make no sense! Anyway, I was trying to say that a tube is not necessarily needed depending on the packaging.

i got my mystery box today...version 1 with add on, what a great box only 1 dupe (coco) ...i didn't get the pink cloth though that some people did in my box ;( i guess i can't complain

 

[Lolo22]

OMG my mystery box finally arrives and it's missing BOTH the diamond glitters!!!!! And of course I got the version with 2 dupes for me. So pissed off!! If they try to send the replacements DHL I will seriously freak out! And it's basically Friday so I probably won't even get a response until next week /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> major pouting situation over here!

I want my mystery box by my birthday on Friday--it must be hanging out with lots of friends--it has not updated since the 12th! I want my polish--not just for me, but every year on my birthday I give my student workers and staff members gifts. Tis better to give than to recieve--and I was going to add more polish to their make your own subscription box station (perfume, gloss, sample of some sort, and German Chocolate Advent Calendar).

Mystery Box, version 2 with the Mystery Add on. I also added Autumn onto the order to reach the $35 minimum for the glam kit since I ordered before that promo ended.

$46 and some change for everything. Not too shabby!
That's some awesome nail mail!

Thanks for posting pics  I definitely want to get this.

What's the total number of bottles that fit?

I would need a lot more room for my polishes.

What a disappointment after all the waiting!  Julep needs to make this up to you.  At the very least ask for Jules & NO DHL shipping!  

Good luck getting your new glitters.

Wow. Thats rough.

The only polish I wanted from the Gem Collection - Angela. Arrived broken. Just my luck!

Thanks ladies. I was so sad/mad last night to open my glitter-less box after working a 14 hr day. I'm going to try calling them today because their email auto reply says its a 3-4 day response time and with the maven window and all. I'm sure they will fix it. I think the added shipping time makes it worse when something isn't right /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 

[Lolo22]

Wow Julep really sucks! I called them and they said they have no more mystery glitter polishes left so I am SOL. All they offered me was a voucher for 2 other polishes or a return label to return my box.  I said, "I thought I saw you guys just post on FB recently that you had 600 more boxes for sale?" She said, "no you definitely didn't see that, we are all sold out."  I told her I wanted to cancel my maven account because this was BS and she just said no problem. 

I looked up my order history and I have purchased $232 from them since I became a maven in January.  I guess they don't care about my money or me as a customer.
