I'm actually really disappointed in MAC. This isn't coming from someone who is mad that she couldn't get what she wanted, because at one point I had the shadows and lippies, and chose not to buy or stalk.... ADULTING.
But what I saw this am was pathetic. I had to go to Sears so I decided to drive around my mall. The lines for MACY'S and MAC were ridiculous. Mt Nordies had about 60 people at 930. I got in line knowing they had about 12 of each item.
The women in line with me didn't think they'd let people line up if there wasn't enough stock. I finally said, I'm a jaded MAC fan, I know how they get down. A MUA came around giving out more numbers, now at 80+, and we asked, what do you have left? She started stuttering and pausing. I was like look, we're not going to get mad, but don't waste people's time. She finally said were out of Shadows. 10 min later they said they were out of a stock.
Now my line was 99% Latina/Hispanic women of all ages... Selena was a cultural icon... I can't believe MAC didn't take any of that into consideration and plan accordingly.
And my Nordies pissed me off, why waste these people's time?!?!?! You knew Monday how much you had...why is this there this much security, why is he standing as your body guard as you tell us your out of stock. Do you really think I'm going to go off and risk jail?!?!?! LOL and why would you tell people to go to MAC or Macy's at this point?!?!?! Don't offer pointless alternatives.
MAC do better.... and I felt so bad for my line mates... still didn't give them any tips on how to look for a restock. LOL
Y'all better find Specktra!
