^ I agree, people can't expect to pay you less then what you paid for it?? What would be the point of selling it then, so you could end up with less then what you started with?? NO WAY!

I only wanted the exact amount i paid. which is like $51 CAN so prob $44 or $45 us. Well everyone keeps writing me offering like crazy things dont wanna pay to ship it, give me $25 or wants to just pay $38US but i am pretty sure most people have to pay taxes. I thought i was being nice offering this to people who didnt get a chance to buy it online bc sold out so quickly. But i guess not lol... sorry guys i just have to vent i am a little annoyed. and if i posted something i am not suppose to say let me know thanks

I think people may be offering the $38 ammount because that's about what you'd have paid had you bought it in America. They probably don't want to factor in the currency exchange and such.

And now, with Passions of Red, it's back to colors that actually can be worn on a day to day basis, who wants that? lol.

well duhhh guys.. of course you can't use all of those colors together everyday. You don't have to use all of the colors in the pallet together. I never intend to actually.

I already have plumage... so I use my electric eel with plumage and a highlighter

You can also put bitter or I've even used sharp on my lid, electric eel and carbon in my outer corner

I use playful nano gold/ and lotus land and say top hat in my crease

hell deep truth just goes around you know I use that with anything

The only color i havent used yet is going bananas.. but its all good I know i'll get around to it.

I don't think you guys have to feel confined to sticking with colors in a palette.

Let your creative juices flow!

i think depends on the states, a lot of them don't have to pay for sales taxes when they order their mac online (which is why a lot of ppl do that to save money) if we have that in Canada, i would order everything online

ETA: technically you shouldn't post about this in the collection forum. try posting it in the clearance bin

I always pay sales tax. I'm in Tennessee and our sales tax is almost 10%. I wish I didn't get charged tax online or I would also order everything online.

Well tax varies from state to state and county to county. If I were to order from Canada I don't pay sales tax, I have no clue why, it's just what the sales people tell me. So it all depends on where the person would have ordered it from and if they did pay tax some may pay 5%, others may be paying 10%, so maybe that's why people's offer prices are lower than what you expected.

Someone mentioned to me that it has to do with whether or not you have a freestanding store in your state/province. If you do, you'll be taxed, if not, you escape!

I agree. My freestanding store is on the other side of the state, it would be faster to go to a different state! I was told it's a legal thing, if MAC has a store in your state they have to charge tax becuase the own it. If you only have a counter, they don't charge tax becuase macys, nordies, ...ect. own it. I'm not sure if thats correct.

So I caved, I told myself I wasn't going to get the eye pallet!

But, I took it as a sign that it was still in stock today (pay day) and ordered it.

Naughty Charlotte!!
