I just cannot comprehend paying all that money when it's available on the site and hasn't even hit the stores yet. SMH

I'd say center of the universe. I've been on a coral/peach/orange kick lately and that one will go with everything I have.

A profit of $18, just wow!

^ While I also thinks it's outrageous, nobody is forced to buy from this seller especially at those prices, so the people who have bought only have themselves to blame. th_loser.gif

true, it all comes down to a supply and demand scenario.

I'm sure you can phone up and they'll change your order for you!

post #4393 of 7900

I dont understand why ANYBODY  would pay ebay prices.

You can swap them! 

post #4395 of 7900

This is aboute the normal price for this item in shop where I live :S        That´s IF you can get hold on one; they get only a few of each and there is 3 (three....) MAC-stores in the whole country.

Silly silly people... When I clicked on it one person bought 2 MSFs and 2 MBs for a total of $164....

They could have got so much more by buying from MAC directly!

That's what I was thinking. It's outrageous in terms of US/Canada pricing, but the eBay seller might be appealing to international buyers where the pricing matches up close to retail.

I kinda found when I received my package, I'll just share with my sister, but my dumb self was wondering why the ticket was so high :-P
post #4399 of 7900

As long as the seller provides original items I´m ok with it.   We do not have the opportunity to order online from MAC yet.

Exactly. Most of those ebay prices are not that much higher than what we have to pay over here. And it's difficult to buy the limited collections online over here, the popular stuff sells out very fast, sometimes in minutes or even seconds. And most people don't have to the time to stalk the sites all day so they are willing to pay some extra Euros if they can get their hands on those items.

I do buy MAC on eBay too, but the linked listing is really a little too pricey.

post #4402 of 7900

Solar Ray appears to be sold out on the Nordies site, although I can't recall whether or not I saw it on there earlier today. If it did sell out, I'm surprised it's the first one!!!

post #4403 of 7900

I live in Norway. Since I live in Oslo it's somewhat easier to get hold in MAC but I have to leave work to get to the MAC-store and even then I´m not sure to get my hands on what I want to buy.

The text colors are very pretty btw lol so hypnotizing! 

It did double! Woot! I'm almost tempted by Star Wonder *sigh* it just looks so pretty! I just doubt I would use it that much, since Blonde and Porcelain Pink seem to get the least amount of use. 

I always love all the text colors available on here, a lot of times I just go with the usual pink cause I can't decide which color to use.  A lot of the permanent stuff I've been wanting to get for a looooong time, so I finally gave in cause it's the last chance I'll get to spend that much money for a very long time, and I was able to get my Cut A Caper off of Nordies, YAY!

I havent seen it on there all day and I havent seen pleasureseeker either....maybe they are sold out due to pre-sales?

Mac is not available to everyone in every country. Sometimes ebay is the only place where one can get Mac, or a product that has been sold out, so it is good that there's that option. Besides, the prices may seem high for US people, but in many countries the retail prices are not that far away from ebay prices.

 

This collection is a skip for me, I don't see a single item I would be interested in enough to buy. I really hope Mac steps up their game.

post #4408 of 7900
Round two of my b-day haul! I actually love the mystery of what my swirls are going to look like hehe...
Star Wonder msf
Light Year msf
Neo Nebula mes
Magnetic Attraction mes
209 liner brush-I only have the SE version. Ive been planning on getting the full size for my fluidlines. Figured this was a good a time as any. You only turn 30 once :-)
And figured I'd throw in Dark Dare from ED. I've heard good things about it. Should be awesome for smokey eyes in the fall.

I hope this is my final haul from this collection. I had Earthly mes in my cart too. But figured I'd be good and wait for the new electric cool shadows. But I have a feeling Earthly will nag at me until I give in lol

That's true, too! I've used eBay to buy the Sleek acid palette, which I know was for more than retail, but since Sleek isn't available here in the US and I wanted those neon bright shadows, cha-ching for that eBay seller lol

I understand that now after seeing several more posts. Those prices still seem crazy but its more understanble now.
