Did you wind up making the trek?
Yes I did! Lol. Managed to miss traffic there and back which I was worried about. As for what they have, they definitely had less variety for MAC than the CCO's in the US, and the deals weren't that great (maybe 5-7 dollars off of retail from what I remember). An employee mentioned they usually get new stock once a month but hadn't had anything new come in for about 2months which may explain the lack of choices. I did get a pigment I was looking for, for 18.00 and one of their LE lipsticks.

I noticed that the packaging on the lipstick was different in that the color name was printed on the box rather than on a sticker, and another sticker that looked like it was from an Asian Launch originally. Is that a new type of box/labeling for MAC now? I've seen threads which listed some fakes as having that characteristic where the color name is printed directly on the box. There's so many different varieties of real and fake, it's hard to keep up now. :S Will probably post a picture in a bit as well.

Yes the newer MAC packaging has the colour names and barcodes printed right on the box instead of on a sticker.

Went to the store today and was really disappointed with their customer service. Purchased a smashbox eye shadow pallet. Pay attention to the prices ladies! On the display it was priced at $33 however when I went to purchase it the sales associate rang it in as $38.25. After I paid, I realized the sticker on the item had a higher price. I asked the sales associate why the display (which clearly showed the sku # and description) showed a different price. She was looking at the display at little confused and only managed to mumble"sorry about that". That was it. Didn't even look at me when she said sorry.

I was so annoyed that I just took off without saying anything. First time at the store and probably my last.

I went here last weekend.

They had some Pedro Lourenco items as well as a couple of paint pots, MSFNs and some of the MSFs from the Divine Night Collection...

They had some Estee Lauder double wear foundations and my sister got one for $27.

The MAC Items were about 30% off the Retail price but since I know someone who has a PRO card, it didn't make sense me buy anything.

I must go there. I went months ago, and the store was closed on a Wednesday afternoon, they had no signage.

It was pretty decent - they did have some MAC lipstick and lip glasses and the MAC Mascara 'False Lash Waterproof'. I know they had the eye shadow quads which my sister said the price (can't remember what they had them for) was good. The MSFNs were $22 if I remember correctly. They had Bobbi Brown, Smashbox and Clinique make up there as well.

As well as a lot of fragrances (such as the Tom Ford fragrances, one was like $500!!!) ...lol

Not bad, do they have a big selection? I know someone with a pro card as well but I wouldnt mind some LE pieces. Did they have anything from Archies Girls, Wonder Woman or Venomous Villians? (a long shot i know) from what you remember?

Honestly, I don't remember if they had any of those specifically. I only really remember seeing the items from the Pedro L collection. The MAC section isn't very large - Estee Lauder and Clinique I found had more items but the store in itself isn't that big. Sorry, I couldn't be of more help.

Fair enough! Thanks!

What they have at the outlet is also a good indicator of what you may see at the upcoming warehouse sale.
