*Spoilers* October 2013 Popsugar Must Have Box

[numbersmom]

Did popsugar send these or are they from stichfix?

That exactly how mine came! I am depressed at what a hunk of crap my necklace is. Faky looking rhinestones and the whole thing weighs about as much as a feather. I wouldn't pay $3 for it at Walmart.

Popsugar

You would think if they didn't learn a lesson from February at a minimum they would wrap the apology replacements nice to make the recipients feel special to receive it, since it was a sensitive issue to some subscribers. Business 101

 

[cobainrls]

When I wrote them I told them about the Feb. box and how they did it to me again! Then they send an email back saying they need the card back. Fine, but, I feel that isn't fair as they made the mistake of including something in a box that I PAY for and then want me to turn around and spend money to send the card back(I know it was just a stamp but, that is not the point).I also mentioned the bracelet. Really? It was so small. It was like child size. I knew when they said they were going to send jewelry I wasn't going to like it because I knew it was going to be gold. Maybe I sound like an ungrateful brat.Then, I received my box with the necklace all knotted up. The box has a sticker on the back but, not where it is from. I guess, you win some, you lose some.

They sent me the scarf from... August? The navy-and-white-striped-with-neon-coral-blocking. Which I already have, but I didn't want either of the other things they gave me a choice of, so whatever. At least it's better than the initial offered item: The thong from the February box. I, ahem, let them know that was not acceptable.

I agree and can't believe they let their customer service fall so short on this one. And you're not being a brat at all, they truly should have already had this handled with stitchfix if they were even giving out the cards. But you're right win some lose some with these subs.

The brand of my necklace was 41hawthorn, which is Stitchfix's brand. I just sent an email back to Popsugar to let them know how unhappy I was with this "solution". I told them the only thing that necklace was good for was dress up for my toddler.

Why didn't they let you send back a picture of the card in an email? That seems weird. To be honest though, it's luck of the draw with stitch fix as well--I am sure some of the people who use the coupon will find that not everything they receive is their taste.

I think part of the disappointment is... that I actually wanted to try stitch fix. Like I wanted to see what kind of clothes they would send. I shouldn't have to ask them to customize a box full of accessories because PopSugar sent me a card out of the size range they offer. 

Yeah, I was ready to sign up, but was blocked too

I like that one too! Very pretty!

 

[wisconsin gal]

That

Just got it...It's a Baublebar Flower Dangle Bib Necklace (label says orange, although clearly it's not). And yes...gold. Not sure I like it...

your necklace is so very pretty! I love it

I wish they would have given me a choice. I would have been happier with that. Even if I didn't like any of the choices for myself I could use it for a present. I can't use my necklace as a present because I don't know anyone who would like this necklace. I guess it will go on my trade list.

I don't see what's wrong with those necklaces.  I think with the right top or dress they would look amazing, and the whole point of StitchFix is to expand your wardrobe (with clothes and accessories) and try something you wouldn't normally try.  I've been a Stitch Fix user for a while, so I'm use the the style of necklaces they send.  They are light weight, but I almost kept several because I loved them so much, but I couldn't justify the price.  

Don't get me wrong, though, they have sent plenty of clothing and accessories that I did not like, but the idea is to try something you wouldn't normally pick up and try yourself.

Right but, I hate gold jewelry. My wedding rings are white gold, my earrings are white gold,etc. Gold does not look good on me. If my necklace was in silver then I would try it out.

I think them sending anything was a nice gesture. It's not the "PopSugar You'll Love Everything" box.

I've been lurking on MUT for about a year now but never worked up the nerve to actually join and post anything.  

My bracelet came completely unraveled a couple weeks ago.  I emailed Popsugar and they said that they unfortunately don't have any extras.  Is it worth possibly contacting Gorjana about?  Or should I just count it as a loss and move on?

Thanks in advance for the input! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It may be - I've ordered from gorjana quite a few times and they always have wonderful cs. So it couldn't hurt.

Did Popsugar offer to send you anything else?  I think someone else contacted them about their damaged bracelet and they sent them something else from a previous box.  Maybe you can take whatever they send you and then trade for a new bracelet on here?  I believe there are a few ladies trading their bracelets on the Popsugar swaps thread.

Or maybe that was different because their bracelet arrived damaged as opposed to coming unraveled after receiving it.  If Popsugar isn't sending you anything, I'd say it couldn't hurt to email Gorjana about it.  There was probably a quality issue with the one you received if it came unraveled so quickly with just normal usage.

Never said it was.I dont usually complain but, when I pay for something I can't use that is not okay with me. I paid for the stitchfix card and couldn't use it. So yes it was nice of popsugar to send us something in return.

I just tried the Julep Maven freedom top coat.... it DOES dry really quickly, but it also somehow makes it so that the polish peels off really easily. Two days after application, and my nails are all chipped already, badly. Anyone else have this issue? Am I using it wrong somehow?

It does the same exact thing on my nails as well. I actually ordered the freedom top coat from Julep months ago, so now I have two of these top coats. It's not the best. The only top coat I've found that I've had really good results with is Nails Inc. Caviar Topcoat. If anyone has any tips to get the freedom top coat to have better results, let us know!!
