Yay! So exciting to hear I have something that's hard to find: New Year's Yves Lipglass. I also have Copper pigment, but it's the "metallic" pro one...from a previous comment, I'm guessing there's another Copper pigment?

I really want to find Tux de Lux lip glass. I don't think that I would ever wear a black lip gloss but I have to have it! I also of course want Heatherett lipstick so bad that I would be willing to pay an arm & a leg for it.

There is a product that was done as a collaboration with a very popular and talented french designer. It is so rare that I have never heard of it ever being mentioned on any forum. I know it exists, because at one point, I had it in my hands, but was too stupid to buy it. I keep hope alive that I will find another one again.
Sorry, I am going to be selfish and not mention the name, as I want to increase my chances of nabbing it if it ever does show up!
Oh, and their is a brush I have never seen outside of "MAC world" in real life.

-The uber rare discontinued pigments.
-Judy Blue, Pretty Twisted, Haze, Glitz, they're rare (but can be found from time to time) but there are rarer. So the very VERY HTF e/s (ie. Fuchsia, Coppera, Golden Olive, Mahogany, Aegean Green, Egyptian Gold, Ether Blue, etc. There's sooooo many more than the widely known htf colors.)
-MAC for Morrissey
-Stickey Wicket all over gloss
-Sexie/Sexier lipglass/lipstick combo
-Angry Inch lipglass
-Heatherette lipstick (which is hideious!)
-Snake eyes collection
-China Markers (especially Kloreen!)
-Full set of Colour Theory e/s

 HI EVERYBODY!!
I WISH I WOULD OWN ONE SINGLE ITEM NAMED FROM THE ABOVE POSTS I AM REALLY JEALOUS OF.
THE ONLY THING WITCH I OWN AND CONSIDER AS RARE FOR ME IS MY BEAUTIFUL ARISTOCRAT MINERALIZE EYESHADOW FROM THE FIRST ROCOOCO COLLECTION AND, SADLY THE ONLY COLOR FROM THIS.
I DO KNOW ITS NOT REALLY RARE BUT I ALSO LOVE MY COCO AND DECKCHAIR PIGGIES ,OF WICH I OWN TWO OF BOTH COLORS.
I LOVE THOSE COLORS LIKE CRAZY AND THEY ARE MY PERSONAL TREASURES!!

I am a total newbie and am just getting up the courage to post in the introductions thread after just joining Specktra today ... last night was culling my still minimal MAC collection to see wat I have and to figure out a nice place to put it all (and to collect the tools to depot my flip-top E/S which I'll do when I get home on Sunday) ...
Funny thing is I do have a screw-top pot of Haze (frost) though honestly it looks, to me, more lavender/purple than the more periwinkle shade in the picture ... it's been swiped like once (I love the color per se so I bought it but it doesn't really look that good on) ...
I guess I should put that one aside for possible swappage once I figure out what I can swap and what I want??? Or was there another more recent version of Haze that was more purple?

Re: 10 top hardest to find MAC Items
Well, pleasureflush is going for about 200$ canadian on ebay right now.
I found New Vegas MSF on ebay also. 150$ canadian
Honestly, whoever would pay that much for makeup, has too much money to blow and should give some to me!

Re: 10 top hardest to find MAC Items
What about the old cream liners and the Bathing Ape collection? I wanted to buy the Bathing Ape gloss of ebay, but held off and now no one seems to be selling it.
And I had a cream liner and could kick myself for taking it "Back to MAC" as an empty even though it was full. Being a total makeup idiot back then, I couldn't figure out how to get it to go on right.
