mac postcards??

[Kitt3n]

I just got a postcard for smoke signals the other day, so I'm guessing they still make them, but maybe they are not distributing many now.

I was shopping at the MAC counter at my local Macy's (this is a weekly event for me these days) and was presented it along with a "You must sign up for our new event." So, I happily took the postcard and signed up for a make-over.

At my make-over last Thurs. I learned a lot about how to improve my smoky eye.

I'm pretty sure they stopped giving alot away because they would always end up on eBay with a high pricetag. =/

This is clearly not the case because all the Mac postcards up on Ebay are from Thailand/Singapore/etc. Anyways yeah, I've been keeping myself up to date by buying them on Ebay, because I'm crazy. There's been Strange Hybrid, Balloonacy, C Shock, Moonbathe, and Flashtronic.

I think if MAC doesn't like that they're being sold at Ebay when they're supposed to be free, they're making the problem bigger by discontinuing them or distributing very little. If most people can just grab them at the counter and there's a steady and free supply of it for us MAC addicts then who would buy them on Ebay? They're just making us want postcards more because they're so damn rare now.

Yesterday my counter got some SMOKE SIGNALS pamphlets! They have all the looks for the collection, plus snapshots from the promo video! It's hot!

I actually got postcards today with my mail order! I'm glad because I really like the promo shot for smoke signals.

i got a postcard from viva glam VI last week....

 

[erine1881]

they aren't postcards, but if anyone is interested, the new viva glam VI ads are in the magazines right now.

eve is in the october lucky, and dita is in the october glamour. we've had the eve postcard at my counter now for a little while, so hopefully we will get the dita one soon.

Do they do postcards for the holiday collections... because I got the email for it today and I love the gold design with the crown for the antiqued collection.

Seems like they really care about the postcards being sold on ebay... but what about all those fake MAC's hmm?

 

[sigwing]

I got the ones for Smoke Signals & VG-VI also, with orders from mac.com here recently, plus a SS card in the mail from Dillard's. I just never know, and hadn't gotten any in quite some time from mac.com or anywhere.

The reason some of them are sold in ebay is because we can't GET them in the US! I collect EVERY SINGLE POSTCARD, MAILER, INVITE, ETC. ---check out my collection by clicking on my signature- but I swap or pay for the ones I can't get here. I have cards back to 1994.

anddddd... theyyy keep coming out with NEW ONES I HAVE to have!! LOL

a really cool MA gave me MAC postcards of Anquitease, Plush Lash and Smoke Signals. and gave me 2 of each.

 

[Stormy]

I asked at my MAC store and they didn't have any new ones, they said the Antiquitease cards would be in next week. I was so hoping to get some enw ones.

Ooooh what does the Antiquitease postcard look like? I've only seen the mailer and the invite, and Im obsessed with that model!

 

[~Crystal~]

The Antiquitease postcard looks much like how the huugeee promo poster at MAC looks
