Yes I called immediately after opening the box. The Rep. sounded like she couldn't give a crap. She implied that Mac must have substituted the blush with what was available. That seems a little shady doesn't it?!? She also said I could keep the blush or return it at their expense but they wouldn't replace it with the correct item.
What???? That's crazy! I would call again. Uh uh. You paid for one item and got another, that don't fly.

Has anyone in Canada received shipping confirmation? Im actually still waiting on an order to ship from Thursday in addition to my blushes from yesterday at around 9:30am. Usually everything ships so quickly. My order from Thursday is a msf that comes in a mirrored compact now. Since we don't have overnight I was really hoping my order would come tomorrow so it had better be shipping today! (I'm going crazy with excitement lol) Those of you who get your orders today, I'm so looking forward to seeing your swatches!
I ordered yesterday around 9:00 am PST, and haven't received shipping notice yet. I'm in Vancouver, and I expect my package will come tomorrow, since I ordered about the same time last week for Playland. Didn't get it the day after I ordered, but the day after that (2 days). You're in the east, though, so maybe yours will be quicker.

That sucks :( Did you call them? See what they can maybe do for you?  [/quote Yes I called immediately after opening the box. The Rep. sounded like she couldn't give a crap.

She also said I could keep the blush or return it at their expense but they wouldn't replace it with the correct item.
seriously? did you try to call back again and get a different operator? i'm kinda new to MAC but i haven't seen anyone else ever post that they 'substitute' if they run out of stock. i would call again and ask for a manager :(
Not worth the hassle. Instead I called my nordstrom store and asked them to hold it for me. We shall see if the MAC counter really holds it for me Thursday. If not I'm not going to get bent out if shape over a blush. I have tons more in my collection!

Oh hell no.

It's situations like that that I hate, because even though you made sure to order the item you wanted within the time frame it was available, THEY screwed up, and should be pulling out back up extra's from a magic portal of infinite supply for cases like these.

I got the wrong one too. I originally ordered Sunset Beach when I really meant to order Ocean City but then I became very VERY excited about getting Sunset Beach, well I got Ocean City in my not so little black box and I don't know what to do :/
Just call em, that's,what I did. Like I said, its the collections with special packing lol. Hmm...

This is madness.

ETA: I'm glad you spoke to someone who quickly resolved the issue for you and even made it worthwhile by letting you keep their mistake, lol. :)

I just got both blushes and swatched them on my cheeks & outside of the packaging neither one of them are anything special.....I have similar colors in my stash.

Also, if any of the NC40 & over ladies wondered if these would show up on the skin, OC did with one swipe but I had to swipe SB a couple of times.
Thank you I was about to hit the button for both at Nordies!

one of the things I promised myself regarding Mac or any other product.....is to not buy or keep anything that I have to "work at it" to make it work on my skin tone cuz it just stays unused that's as close as I can come to "no buy"

Me too, I called beforeI came on here- can't believe all the mistakes and how some are not sending out the correct product? I feel very lucky.
