I saw someone comment on IG that it was up a couple days ago and sold out in minutes after TM posted about it... does anyone know if that's true?

the website was being glitchy on the 13th and the add to bag option was visible for a second or two before it switched to coming soon. I think you could also add it if you drilled into the Powders page. Some ppl had their order cancelled, some shipped successfully, and others shipped but then received a ups update that their box was empty and discarded. I don't know how quickly the glitch was fixed after TM posted, or if the fix meant sold out.

Oh lovely. TM can't leave anything alone, can she? Hopefully the earlier sale was a glitch since they did have a note 'Available January 2016' all weekend, which I have never seen before. PLEASE PM me if it appears...I'm debating calling.

TM=trendmood (aka trendmood1 on IG)...a pretty unscrupulous beauty blogger. Steals and doesn't credit things from people (or credits so poorly that she might as well not); has been banned from certain beauty forums, has had accounts closed for breaking user and copyright guidelines. There's even an open letter against her. Some are also suggesting that's why we don't know about collections/have swatches much in advance anymore for some brands.

What's TM?


Hi
I'm quoting Allie's answer below:

I had stopped stalking so I really didn't have a clue :/
I will keep an eye out.

I really hope they didn't sell out. It would really be a shame. I do not care for that kind of super-exclusive teasing

Make that 'Available January 16, 2017'. Can't type this morning, geez.

I love the open letter against her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She needs to go away...find something else to do. She has ruined so much.

It was showing available today when I checked between midnight and 5am EST.
For those whose orders were cancelled, did you receive an email saying so or did you check your order status?

Yeah, it swapped from coming soon to add to bag at midnight. I was up (yay pregnancy insomnia), and so I tried to buy it and the Carmin pencil....'qty 1 is not available'

I spoke to CS this morning about my order being on hold and they went back and forth on whether it would be available later today or if it sold out just after midnight. I think one guess is as good as the next! Glad Izzys is planning to get it.

And congrats Allie!

Just for giggles....when I called CS, I asked them if Chanel would ever make a handbag that was as bad as their website issues :secret::hmm::rotfl:

I was able to add to bag. No stupid message at that point.
I'm just worried now b/c it seems no order is safe.
And doesn't Chanel know makeup stress is bad for baby?!?
