Fancy Box Subscription Review – November 2012 – Monthly Subscription Boxes

This post may contain referral/affiliate links. Read the full disclosure.

This is my first Fancy box. You can let them know what categories of products you are interested in. I picked Gadgets and Home.

The Box: Fancy Box

The Cost: $30 plus $7.95 shipping

The Products: Get your Fancy fix at home with our monthly subscription service featuring a collection of some of the most fancy’d items, curated by the fancy community. Each box includes $60+ of products in the categories of your choice, including: Men’s, Women’s, Kids, Pets, Home Goods and Gadgets.

iStuck iPhone holder – Value $8

Paris Versus New York – Value $12

This was probably my favorite item in the box. It’s a great coffee table book, or a great gift.

Salt & Pepper Bots – Value $16

Sparq Whiskey Rocks – Value $15

I feel like whiskey rocks are really popular this year. We got them in a Birchbox Man box as well, so these will probably end up being a gift.

Milktape USB Cassette Mixtape – Value $15

Pixel Sunglasses – Value $6

Verdict: I’m not sure what to think about my first Fancy box. I am impressed with the value (Approx $70), but I’m not really excited about any of the products. It may just be this month, so I’ll definitely give them another try. Did you get a Fancy box? What did you think?

OMG! how excited am I . I read your blog…joined the fancybox this month on the 10th. since then they have raised their price to $45 a month. I still get mine at $30 a month but the value has increased to at least $90 worth of stuff! SOOOOO Happy!!!

Where did you get your prices? Because I happen to know that some of these brands sell for more. Like the whiskey stones sell for $19.50 and the glasses (by 80s Purple) sell for $12. The value is higher than you estimated for sure…

  I pulled the prices from Amazon, so it’s definitely fair to say they retail for more elsewhere. Either way – this box definitely was a good value!

I just signed up to try it. I’m a sucker for this type of stuff! But, it is a bit on the pricey side. If shipping was included that would have seemed more reasonable.

This one looks like fun, but a bit pricey since I can’t give up my PopSugar! 🙂
