I see the triangle on the canadian site for Red Romp--not sold out yet.

All together, now:
WOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I don't know if this means anything, but I noticed that, even though Queen's Sin appears as "Sold out" at maccosmetics.com, it appears on macpro.com among the lipsticks, MINUS that horrible black LE triangle. If MAC would even have it as a permanent Pro shade, that would be dandy with me!
I do remember writing MAC a semi-humiliating grovelling e-mail in which I promised to be MAC's blindly obedient mindless slave for life if they'd make Queen's Sin permanent.
Oh, well; I probably would be, anyhow ...
Okay, MAC, now I want Coco pigment back!
And Rocking Chick lipstick.

The two *are* somewhat similar, but at least on me(NW15; brunette; green eyes), New York Apple is more pink, less red than Queen's Sin.
Of the two, I prefer Queen's Sin. I own and love both, but Queen's Sin is really something extraordinary.

At least on me, this is true. Queen's Sin is a deep red, while New York Apple is more of a pinky red. NYA even has a bit of a plummy cast.
Queen's Sin is a very elegant, classy ruby red. I compared its color to that of a ruby in a ring that I own, and the two colors are very similar!
I've heard Queen's Sin called "Dorothy's ruby slippers for the lips," and I think that's a good description.

Awww; I wish they'd continue to make and sell both!
Maybe I'm greedy and/or obsessive, but I wouldn't mind if MAC offered a thousand shades of lipstick!
I'd go beyond broke, trying to buy them all, but what a way to go!

New York Apple was very pink on me, and I swapped it away because pink just doesn't work for me. I never tried Queen's Sin, but this thread is starting to make me glad that I skipped it

I am going to have to side with those who say they're different enough to carry both in the line because I love QS and remember swapping away NYA because it didn't look so hot on me.

If you get a chance to try Queen's Sin, do so.
I like New York Apple, but Queen's Sin is an entirely different color; much more red.
It may depend on your coloring, though, but I think Queen's Sin is unique enough to warrant at least a try.
Unless you have a serious phobia of red, it would be worth your time to check it out.

Even though I love both of them dearly, I don't find myself reaching for either New York Apple or Queen's Sin all that much.
My absolute HG dream of a lipstick is PORT RED. I nearly literally lost bladder control when I saw that one for the first time. It's so far beyond ordinary gorgeousness.
MAC can keep right on putting out all of the above lipsticks as far as I'm concerned!

Funny you should say that - *Dorothys Shoes* was its working name
I agree that NYA is more pinky, they look similar enough but I tend to get a plummy cast as well... not nearly as nice as Queens Sin.
I agree with you actually on Port Red as well ~ I LOVE Port Red, prefer it much more than Queens Sin and would be happier (DIE) if Port Red was being made perm!!
