Reminder: POPSUGAR Summer Special Edition Box Launches Today
The Summer 2015 POPSUGAR Must Have Special Edition Box launches today, May 13th! (I would guess the box will launch sometime between noon and 1 pm ET, but I'll post again as soon as the box is live).
The POPSUGAR site doesn’t list the price, but I’m assuming it will be $100 like all of their previous Special Edition boxes.

This is now listed as sold out, I don’t blame CFDA purchasers for being upset still. All the PS boxes I have ever gotten have been great, but if someone got burned with the Neiman Marcus and CFDA boxes, I could understand the resentment.

Obviously I need to reconsider my future. If a company can sell 8 crappy LE boxes in one year (I’m excluding the target) box and still get people to hand over money then perhaps they are on to something. At what point do you stop warning people and start capitalizing…thankfully I have ethics.

There is absolutely no reason for Popsugar to provide a spoiler when people are going to sign up anyway lol… even after the CFDA debacle. I thought more people would hold out, the CFDA purchasers for sure. I can’t wait to see what’s in this one. Every time I don’t order an SE box I regret it, when I do… story of my life.

Skipping it without a spoiler. Just dont want to be stuck with earrings I cant use. Even though I did not order the cdfa box after seeing what was in the box and reading the comments I dont want to take a $100 chance on this box.

I can’t order it without a spoiler. I didn’t care for the spring box, only loved the train case. I got the holiday LE box and didn’t love it either, I need spoilers PS!

I just ordered too… seriously, I am crazy after the CFDA fiasco but I just couldn’t stop myself. It was too easy with just one click! LOL
My faith was restored after The CFDA junk box, since they emailed me a return label. I have always been happy with PS until CFDA. They deserve another chance, but no more $200.00 boxes for me EVER!!!!

Totally agree! I was glad they did something to right the situation with CFDA and I also won’t drop 200 again. 🙂

I just ordered mine. It’s my first se box as I’m pretty new to subscription boxes. After the cfda box I’m nervous but wiling to take the chance based on past summer se boxes. I hope I don’t regret it.
Me too! and CFDA box was so disappointing! I may try to return but waiting until I have mine in my hands to decide. I’m on the east coast. 🙁

No way I’m getting this without a stellar spoiler and if it sells out before that happens, it wasn’t meant to be for me this round.

Seriously? It’s sold out?? I went from “not on sale yet” to “maintenance” to “sold out”
I hit refresh for the first 7 minutes that it was on sale and now it says that it’s sold out. This isn’t fair!

That may mean they are updating the site so they can open the sale up

Call me crazy but I have no hesitation in buying this. I didn’t get the CFDA box (and would have been sad if I did) but I have loved all the other LE boxes
Oh and I got up early (I’m in California) in case they released the box first thing LOL

Over on FB, those people are chomping at the bit to order this box. They are complaining like crazy because it’s not available yet.

I like that they keep asking why they are not able to purchase it. It hasn’t dawned on any of them that Popsugar never released a time. Ugh, I’ve been shaking my head at them all morning.
It just occurred to me, my CFDA box isn’t scheduled to arrive until 5/21. The shipping info hasn’t been updated since 5/9 (at which time it was still in CA). I know that those shipping labels are only good for a limited time AND I don’t have a UPS anywhere near me. What happens if we don’t get the box back within the prescribed time?

They sent me a FedEx label…not UPS. Is everyone else getting UPS labels instead?

I got a FedEx label too and did not see any expiration date or “use by” date on the return label or in the email.
My box is supposed to get to me on the 21st and I got the return label yesterday.

I do a lot of UPS shipping for my job. Return labels don’t expire. The shipper (Popsugar) would have to “void” (cancel) the shipment request. The reason why is that the shipper isn’t actually charged until the return package has been received by UPS.
Reply
Heathery
Sorry, I should clarify this is only from UPS’s point of view. I don’t know if Popsugar put a deadline on the return.

I think the label will still be usable but in an abundance of caution you might contact PS and verify. Given that they’re issuing return labels and many boxes are still in transit you would hope the return window isn’t that limited. If it is, PS is ultimately costing themselves money since they pay for each label they send and then have to pay again to send another if the first expires before being used. So it’s a question worth asking though to me PS should bear the responsibility of knowing when to issue a return shipping label if the box to be returned hadn’t even been delivered yet.

Sticking with Zoe and the MSA/Klover box, mama didn’t raise no fool. 😉

OH fantastic idea and MSA kloverbox is still for sale, that purchase will keep me from falling for this haha!

I want to buy it but I cannot do it right now at $100 price. After the CFDA disaster, they should be offering this one at discount. If that happens, I will buy it.

At this point, they’d have to pay me to buy an LE box from them. I’ll stick to the monthly boxes. If they miss the mark on those, I only spent $40, so I don’t feel robbed.
I wonder how many of the CFDA boxes they’ll get back? I get the feeling they’re going to be taking a big loss on that one.
