I received the women’s medium box yesterday. I thought about sending it back. I don’t like anything in the box. I want to be positive because it is a mystery box which comes with a risk, but this box or brand isn’t for me.
1. NCLA Designer Nail Wraps with palm trees on them. $16.00. Passing them on to my sister.
2.The Tortoise Fancy Wayfarer which are sunglasses. $30.00. I wear prescription sunglasses. Another item to my sister.
3. Sophie Sparrow Shark Tooth Necklace $40.00. I go back and forth on it. I think it would look good against a black shirt, but I don’t wear black.
4. Bib & Tuck Lip Balm. Why is this even in the box? I was trying to find out if it was made in the USA. It is made in the USA by a company that makes different items and puts your label on it. I have a lip balm freebie from a conference I attended. This lip balm is comparable to that.
$86.00 value for $20.00. Fancy did a good job with the value. It isn’t to my taste. My sister is happy with the items she will be receiving.

I just received the Women’s large $40 box and it was so disappointing I’m sending it back. I received this horrible Kinfolk book, really horrible AJ Morgan brand sunglasses, a plastic orange peeler, and a cheapie gold cuff like one I had bought on Clark and Wilson in Chicago for like $3. Thank goodness it comes with a mail back receipt, but I’m disappointed that I only get a credit and not a refund based on what I can conclude from the return paperwork.

Hi – I got mine today (Women’s Large) and posted what was included – $63 value but paid $40. I emailed Fancy so I’ll keep you guys posted on if anything is done. The page for the item says no returns/refunds on this item so you may want to check before you go sending it back in case they don’t do anything for you.

I hope they can help you. Strange because my medium box has a higher value.

Has anyone received their boxes yet? I’m curious if new items will show up since the last round or if the same items are still being cleared out of their warehouse. Mine should be here tomorrow so I’ve been looking around to see if new reviews are up so I can speculate what is in my 3.6lb Women’s Large Fancy Mystery Box.

My Men’s medium box arrived today and it contained sunglasses in a case, Sasquatch soap, a mason jar cocktail shaker and two hot dog spiral cutters on a card.
These items do seem familiar. I’m quite happy with them as I like to have gifts on hand for hard-to-buy-for men.

Sounds like a great box! I’m still waiting for mine to ship, hopefully they get here soon!

I ordered the Women’s MB Large. I previously had ordered one and received the one lots called a ‘winner’ but I called ‘meh’ – the green watch, the gold cuff, the china glaze silver polish, the aqua pouch and the shark tooth necklace. I did swap everything out, but really (I know this is selfish) I had hoped to get the box I had seen a review on that included Happy Buds (Those are golden ear buds NOT something from Snoop Dogg’s box). Silly because for $35+Shipping I could just buy those but instead I rolled the dice on getting them plus other stuff in the mystery box.
Now I’m going to go out to Google and stalk reviews of these mystery boxes. I know I feel so self-centered because truth is I did quite well with the Sample Society Mystery boxes and even though I got a few duds of the $10 Fancy MB, I did do well with the large one – value wise.
The $10 ones were sold out today or I would have picked up a couple of those instead. I thought about getting 2 Medium boxes instead of 1 Large but I haven’t really seen what has been in those.. okay.. so now we can all check back in a week or two and find out what we all ended up with.

I just ordered a men’s medium box and used the code for free shipping. I really hope that the contents are similar to the Spring men’s mystery box Liz reviewed.
I did order a $10 women’s box first time around, boy what a disappointment! That wall decal, lol.

I tried this morning and it didn’t work – then around noon it worked. I also emailed customer service and they said they can’t guarantee you won’t get repeats in mystery boxes, but if you list the items you previously got in the notes section it should help improve your chances of no repeats.

I considered this for a few minutes but don’t want to risk getting one of those loser boxes (work hard decal and head scratcher? No way). I’d rather put the 40 bucks towards the FabFitFun box since the spoilers are already out and it’s stuff I’d actually use.

Ditto! I ordered a men’s and women’s box the first time and they were two boxes of junk. I can think of a better way to spend $20.

I just tried the code and it said that it has reached its total use limit… 🙁

Try it now, it seems like the code is back online!

Liz – Do you know if these will be items that were already in boxes or all new items? I love Fancy but get a few and don’t really need dupes 🙂

I think it is likely that at least some of the items will be from previous Fancy subscription boxes. (Just my guess!)
