FYI - I'm almost always happy with the values of GlossyBoxes, but they have issues with customer care responses and shipping times. Keep that in mind if you are thinking about signing up! (And check out my Glossybox reviews to see what you can expect with this subscription).
Make sure to sign up for a free RueLaLa account if you don’t already have one – many readers have received $25 credit in their account after a few weeks!

Is anyone else having problems with their November box in general? The site still says it is packing. I have emailed twice, called, and left a message. Any suggestions? I like the box, but I would like it more if I received it. Sad.

Mine’s been showing as “packing” for a good week now. I also got the mystery boxes very late. I think Glossybox hates me. And yet I got a 1-month subscription for it on Ruelala, although that was more to get the $25 discount on another order than anything else. Yes, this is how my mind works….

I haven’t recieved mine yet… Tho mine always arrives very late. I just got my past mysery boxes today, which were suppose to arrive weeks ago. I was missing a box. So we’ll see what they say. customer service has been good about replacing missing items in the past it just takes awhile for a response. I cancelled my sub but may rejoin in the new year I have too many beauty items as it is. On the plus side stocking stuffers are taken care of 😉

Does anyone know when the December boxes are available for purchase? I bought a subscription from Rue La La but I don’t want to redeem it until I know that December will be my first box.

I’ve never done Rue La La before. Will they give me a code to use on the Glossybox Site, or does buying from them actually place my Glossybox order?

Hi Heather,
They give you a voucher that you use on the Glossybox site.
Hope you enjoy

Thanks for letting me know. How long should I expect to wait before getting the code from Rue La La? I assume it is in an email?

What is the deal with shipping on Rue La LA?

Do you have to be a first-time subscriber for this deal? I just canceled after my 3 month/$45 subscription with the MSA newsletter discount from September. I personally had a great experience with GB all three months, but $21 per month is a bit too steep for me just now.

$14/month for the 6 month plan is a great deal. I’ve been happy with the size and quality of glossyboxes items and (knock on wood), I’ve never had a problem with late shipping or customer service response.

We can’t do this if we are a current subscriber though, right? We’d have to make a new account and cancel the current (I just signed up this month so I wouldn’t be losing too many points).

I think it says you have until mid feb. to redeem. My sub. happens to end in Jan, so it worked for me, timing wise.

Last year Glossybox did a Black Friday sale for $176 for 12 months, which is a bit of a better deal (and less of a pain to have to renew at the six-month mark and deal with RueLaLa) – I’m going to wait to see if they do a sale this year, too!
Was it around Black Friday?! That sounds like a great deal. I love Glossybox but I hate the price tag.

Yes, it was! So it should be coming up soon. I’m going to sit tight for it.

I agree – lots of customer service issues with GlossyBox, but the subscription is so great! It is a 50/50 for me, but after a year, opted to try something new. I considered re-ordering, but after a month long dispute with customer service and billing – with no offer to speak to them directly or help in any valuable way, I am off to a new box to try. You will be please with them as long as you don’t have to interact with the dreaded customer service email system.

How long are RueLaLa deals up for? Just a day? Or longer?
Reply
Blessedmommi
Hi Michelle,
each deal on Rue la la should tell you how long it is for below the listing. The glossybox deal expires in 6 days. So I’m going to wait a bit before I jump on this deal.
hope this helps

So, if I do a 6 month, will it auto renew for a 6 month, or month to month? Will this tie in to my monthly membership, or will I need to cancel that one?

I think it just auto renews as a month to month. I had a 3 month subscription and I assumed it ran out after 3 months so I bought a 2nd 3 month subscription and ended up getting 2 boxes a month since the first 3 month subscription autorenewed as a monthly box. They refunded my 2nd 3 month subscription since I didn’t know it autorenewed.

My last 3 month renewed as a 3 month sub at full price. Just FYI.
Sara
The plans also automatically renew, it doesn’t end after 3 months, you have to cancel it.

Yeah, but they’ve added an online cancellation feature that can be accessed from your account. The only thing to watch out for is the deadlines. You have to cancel before March 15 to avoid getting April’s box (as an example). So plan accordingly.
