Re: MAC at Costco?!

That is so weird...I think we're all gonna have to go to our local Costco's and check if we got a MAC shipment too.

Re: MAC at Costco?!

My Costco only ever has Smashbox. I diligently check the makeup isle, but they never get Stila or MAC. =/

Dang it! I'm gonna hafta tag along with my MIL when she does her groceries so I can check this out. That'd be so cool!

Im gonna ask at work if they know why its being sold there.

Re: MAC at Costco?!

I was at that Costco about 2 weeks ago and it was REALLY stocked with MAC stuff....they also had Antiqued Gold CCB, Swiss Chocolate, Deep Truth, and Sumptuos Olive....

I went a couple days after that and the stock was half gone! So i'm not surprised if it's completely gone now

yeah was thinking the same thing
Costco is really far for me ... to spend $10 of gas to save a few dollars

Re: MAC at Costco?!

The clue may be in Costco carrying Bumble and Bumble hair products. Bumble and Bumble is an EL company, so maybe it's EL selling off their overstock from their various companies to Costco.

Re: MAC at Costco?!

Re: MAC at Costco?!

I went today and checked but my store didn't have any MAC. Just Smashbox, and some Lancome Hypnose mascaras.

Re: MAC at Costco?!

I'll be going to either the San Jose Costco (near the airport) or the one in Sunnyvale today to stock up items for work. I'll check if there's any e/s or CCB's.

And maybe during the weekend, I'll check out the other Costco's in the South Bay (for people who aren't familiar to Northern California, it's the Silicon Valley area). Oh yea, for people without a Costco card... tell the person who checks your card, your mom is inside shopping or your applying for a job. lol (it always works when I used to do it).

I think it's crazy that Mac would be sold at Costco, but again, whatever deal Mac/Estee Lauder can get is great (more money for them).

Oh yea, has anyone checked if the items are legit??? Like the e/s? Has someone depotted them yet?

Re: MAC at Costco?!

Oh yea, I posted a theard on Yelp.com asking Bay Area people if they have seen Mac items at Costco.

Maybe we'll get more people throught out the US to check inventory. lol

Re: MAC at Costco?!

I'm in the Philadelphia area and will check this weekend and report back on Sunday. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Re: MAC at Costco?!

So out of curiosity I emailed MAC asking if the products were legit, this was their response.:

"MAC products are only distributed for sale at our authorized retail store accounts, or at our free-standing stores. Products purchased at one of our authorized accounts are genuine MAC merchandise of recent production. In addition, consumers can feel confident when they are serviced by one of our trained representatives, who are familiar with our product line. Costco is not one of our accounts, and we therefore have no way of knowing how they obtained our products.

So I guess it's a buy at your own risk kind of thing, "

I'm pretty sure the cco's are more from mac being an el company and letting left over products because most all the make up brands there are el owned

Re: MAC at Costco?!

Blah I went to the SSF Costco and didn't see any MAC

Re: MAC at Costco?!

I went to the Sunnyvale, Ca location today and they had nothing. I only found Stila & Smashbox stuff.

Then I went to the one on Coleman (San Jose, Ca)... they had MAC stuff!
They only had 2 eye shadows (in Deep Truth & Beauty Marked).

There was a price sign for Cream Color Base but there was no cream color base (which I was kinda pissed about). So I walked towards the Smashbox stuff and, surprisingly, found 1 cream color base in Pearl hiding! YAY! I took it and ran to the registers. lol

That's what I was gonna say...it's not really like a partnered location, like Nordies or Macy's....that's probably what they are referring to.

It's just strange to me because all of those shadows that everyone mentioned seeing are from the permanent line, and usually have no problem moving. They are popular staples for people.

Re: MAC at Costco?!

Oh if they are selling mac at Costco what are the chances them selling at Sams?

Re: MAC at Costco?!

I dont know, I really dont like the idea of buying it else where except for mac or a CCO, we know that they obtain it legally and that they are safe. The ones at costco however, does anybody know? because the CCO's wouldn't sell them that much at one time, MAC... you cant buy over X amount at a time with a pro card, or even an employee has limits, so I don't quite know what to make of this. I'm slightly tempted to go and look, but not quite enough to buy it.
