She is a U.S. seller so it is not the Warehouse sale in Canada she's talking about I don't think. Plus, you get your stuff right there at that, right? She says it will take a long time for her "order" to get here. I would never buy anything from her but I wanted to know what you guys thought about this? Is there such a sale?

Here are the emails:

TS THAT TIME AGAIN!!!
WE WILL BE LEAVING TO GO TO THE MAC EMPLOYEE SALE IN A FEW WEEKS.. IF YOU WANT TO PUT IN ORDERS, NOW IS THE TIME TO THINK ABOUT IT!!! ILL SEND A REMINDER CLOSER TO THE TIME... IM ALMOST OUT OF STOCK FROM LAST SHOW!!

I NEVER KNOW WHAT THEY MAY HAVE... SOME ITEMS ARE ONLY 50% OFF RETAIL, BUT FOR MOST PART, ITS WELL WORTH GOING!! ITEMS WILL NOT SHIP UNTIL APPROXIMATELY DEC 15-18TH SO MOST WILL NOT BE HERE TO LIST FOR CHRISTMAS SALES.. SORRY!


I KNOW I HAVE SOME NEW PEOPLE ON MY LIST... SO IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME!! I GO TO THE MAC EMPLOYEE SALES EVERY YEAR (OR A FEW TIMES A YR) THIS IS A HUGE SALE FOR MAC EMPLOYEES AND FAMILY ONLY... ITS BY INVITATION ONLY & THEY HAVE HUGE SALES ON ESTEE LAUDER, CLINQUE AND OF COURSE... MAC!!

THEY HAVE TONS OF ITEMS... FROM PERFUME SETS TO EYE LINERS... SINCE IT TAKES ME 3 DAYS TO GET THRU IT ALL, I CANNOT TAKE SPECIAL REQUESTS, SUCH AS EYE SHADOWS IN FEMME FI, ETC. BUT I CAN TAKE REQUESTS OF EYE SHADOWS, OR FOUNDATIONS ETC.

LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED... WE ARE NOT SURE OF MINIMUM ORDERS AT THIS TIME...

THANKS
MADDI

I asked her again where they are coming from: Me, "Hi,

She replied:
"Hi there

and i will be going to MAC employee sale soon too
but this order is from the last show lol

thanks" ]]> MAC Chat chickatthegym http://www.specktra.net/forum/f165/mac-employee-sale-supplier-out-west-154024/ <![CDATA[What is MAC's lightest foundation?]]> http://www.specktra.net/forum/f165/what-macs-lightest-foundation-153977/ Mon, 16 Nov 2009 00:01:17 GMT (Not colorwise) Something for normal to oily skin that needs light coverage.

Please post your answers here TIA:D ]]> MAC Chat foxxylatina07 http://www.specktra.net/forum/f165/mac-blush-closer-dupe-nars-orgasm-deep-throat-153698/ MAC Eyeshadow Equivalents? http://www.specktra.net/forum/f165/mac-eyeshadow-equivalents-153697/ Wed, 11 Nov 2009 05:37:54 GMT Can you guys tell me the MAC equivalents of the top row of this Sleek make up palette? I know the matte black shade (the 4th one in the top) is like MAC's Carbon.


Here is a site with swatches of those shades:

I dont know what's worse all the people actually buying it or the people who swear it's authentic, like hello, you have tons of MAC makeup artists out there who know there stuff not to mention all us MAC addicts who know MAC back and forth inside out up and down!!! I see it on ebay, i see it on craigslist I go to the SWAPMEET and this woman is literally PUSHING her "real" MAC makeup on me, which I spotted a mile away as fake! That's what totally did it for me, she really thought she could make a fool out of me by claiming this shit was real! At just a couple of dollars less than the real stuff! If there is already a thread on this I apologise but this was more of a rant than anything else. I know people need to make money even a living, but this isnt cool, like seriously I wouldnt even give this stuff away as gifts to my little neices. That's just so cheap! These are pix of all the different places I have seen them, they even have fake NARS out there!! And the brushes...seriously!
