Oui Please Volume 1.4 Box Spoilers + Coupon

I got my box today. The MAKE UP item for broken bottles of makeup last box that didn’t include an item of real value was the T-Shirt that most people ot as a real item. Also the packing slip contained two items that were different by $15 from what the stated cost was. SO cancelling this sub

I posted this on the forum yesterday and thought I would copy it here. For those of you considering a subscription to this box based on the spoilers and reviews, please be aware that some of us unlucky subscribers have managed to receive NONE of the items advertised as spoilers. I’m not sure how the boxes can vary so much, but they do.

Here’s my post from the forum:
I received my box yesterday and it was such an incredible disappointment.

I received “coasters” that have a listed value of $20 and seem to be nothing more than printed glossy cardstock. My husband commented (and I believe he’s probably right) that the paper they’re printed on isn’t even as thick as cardstock. Absolutely NO ONE would ever pay $20 for these color paper discs. To call them coasters isn’t a joke – it’s an insult to our intelligence.

I also received the Kingies t-shirt (size L). I am 5’4″, weigh 125lbs, and this t-shirt fits like an extra small. I understand that French women may, on the whole, be slimmer than their American counterparts, but this is ridiculous. Oui, Please is a box targeted for women primarily living in North America. The t-shirt they sent me is the same size as the one my 10 year old son wears from Gap – and he weighs 77lbs and is 4′ 9″. Seriously? Oui, Please really thought that I would be delighted with this t-shirt? Pardon my French, but I think we all know that that’s complete Merde!

Okay, so in addition to the shirt the couldn’t possibly fit (THERE IS NO WAY OUI, PLEASE SENT THESE T-SHIRTS OUT THINKING THEYD ACTUALLY FIT US) and the coasters that aren’t actually coasters, but rather, pictures of drawings cut in the shape of coasters (we’re up to a value of $60, here!), I also received a $20 candy bar. Yes – $20!

Okay – so now we’re up to an $80 value for 4 pieces of paper (and they aren’t even full sized pieces of paper), a shirt and a candy bar. Truth be told, the actual value of these items could not be more than $15, including shipping, because the “coasters” are worthless, the t-shirt’s worth $10 tops, and the candy bar is probably worth $2. I’m a teacher, though, and one of my student’s parents are from France – so I’ll check with them on the candy bar and get back with you.

I also received a $20 jar of dried lavender, 5 cosmetic/skin care products (2 kinds of body balm, hand cream, sunscreen, and rose mist water) valued at $235 and the Reveuse burlap pouch. Tres chic (please insert dripping sarcasm…)…

Is what Oui, Please always sends? Last month all I received was makeup and skin care products, a candle, and a tiny ring that was designed to slide 1/2 way down my finger…

This time, according to a paper that was included, I was also supposed to receive a piece of jewelry, valued at $50, but there’s nothing else in this box. The total value of the box is listed at $425. Without the jewelry, it’s $375, and if you take $20 off for the coasters (which MUST be done), that makes it $355. I have to admit, I’m kind of jealous of the Subber who received the barrette and the scarf and the towel…

Frankly, I just don’t see what there is to get excited about. I have plenty of cosmetics already and how many hand creams, body balms, and sunscreens can one person use in a summer?! I was more excited over my little boy’s Loot Crate box, which also arrived yesterday. I bought it with a one time coupon I found on MSA – so it was just $13, plus $6 shipping – and the value was incredible – plus he LOVED everything in it.

Honestly, when I was opening this box, there wasn’t a single item I was even remotely wowed by in the entire box. And for this kind of money – I expect to be wowed. I signed up for the box, because everyone else seemed really wowed – the reviews were great, the clutches were gorgeous…

I’d been so looking forward to receiving this box. I thought the first one being a dud was just a one off, but now, they are 0 for 2. I signed up for a year’s subscription, so I guess I’m stuck with Oui, Please for a year. I’m definitely going to email them about the missing item(s) and the falsely inflated value of the box.

However, I order these boxes to have something fun to anticipate and to get to discover and try new things that I wouldn’t have the opportunity to otherwise. Wasting my time writing emails to CS is not my idea of relaxation or fun. In fact, it just irritates me even more.

Maybe I can just copy and paste this? I know – bad idea! Wishful thinking!

Sorry for the diatribe. I’m just tired of feeling taken advantage of. I’m tired of boxes overinflating values and sending crappy items. I’d rather have three or four nice items them eight or nine subpar ones.

I’m also tired of seeing glowing reviews of boxes (Hello Burke Box!) only to order them and then receive a box full of stuff that looks nothing like what was reviewed.

Oui, Please had better figure it out. They aren’t the only game in town and they may have a hold on the French market at the moment, but they won’t for long if they continue sending boxes out like the one I received.

I just got the box and I am SO DISAPPOINTED. They claim to have over a $400 value and mine was $385 their values seem SO overinflated. Half of my box was the same category of items and the little woman jewelry they kept putting out there for spoilers was not even in mine. I also don’t see how anything even relates to the theme.

Instagram has a picture of one person’s box. It is janaeelizabeth, I believe but I just googled Oui Please instagram and found it. There were about 10-12 items in her box. 5-6 were beauty items but they did look like very nice beauty items. Since this is a spoiler thread, I feel like I can post this.

this should be the last box for the first annual subscription. does anyone know if this will auto-renew or will it cancel out?
i have been quite disappointed with the boxes and do not wish to continue with this sub.

I got my tracking receipt today- no sign of movement yet, but that’s normal of course.

I agree that they have a lot riding on this box. I took a gamble, hoping they’d rise to the challenge. Here’s hoping!

My box had just been picked up by fedex.

Oui Please emailed my “receipt” yesterday. I have an annual, so the balance is zero, but they send me the receipt just before they ship. So much rides on this box for them.

They commented on Facebook that they are shooting for next week. (20-24)

Any thoughts on when this will ship, Liz?

Does anyone know when this is supposed to ship? I didn’t recieve anything yet in my account and thought I saw something online that it was supposed to be shipped 7/14- hoping mine comes before I go to Europe 8/7

I really like the spoilers posted here, but I know not to get too excited, as no jewelry was in my last box, just beauty products. I did contact them, and they sent me the tiny ring as a gift. I am hoping for some of the enamel jewelry pictured, I think it is beautiful.

First off- dont subscribe to this box, and I really think Liz should make a very clear note when she posts anything about this box indicating that subscribers have reported significant problems with boxes, shipping, and customer service.

Has anyone who had an annual subscription been successful calling their credit card and getting this cancelled? The company has not responded to my emails requesting that I cancel and receive a credit for the rest of the sub

I’m thinking of signing up bc I want that enamel feather necklace and cuff bracelet! It’s 20% off subscriptions so my first box would be $120. Would the exit boxes also be $120 or would it go back to $150 I wonder. I’m trying to resist the urge to sign up lol. I am not interested in the burlap sacks. Also, I get FrenchBox and this also ships in July, so maybe that will be enough for my French fix.

I’ve been eyeing this sub for a while. I think is a good sub but when the price point is over $50 the customers for the sub market expect to receive the same items. That being said I really like the sub but the price point is too high and does not fit in my “Entertaiment Budget” in a every other month basis.
I did order the 1.4 parcel a couple of weeks ago as a summer gift for me since no other Summer themed box got my attention. I hope the items they include fit the French Riviera theme and that everyone is happy with their parcel.

The idea of annual subscriptions that you can’t get out of is really uncomfortable for me and this is a perfect example of why.

Talk about uber-depressing spoilers! I haven’t liked any of the jewelry that came in my 3 prior ouiPlease boxes, but this stuff takes the cake as the absolute worst. I cant decide which it looks like more, either a girl scout troop project or something a middle school art class made. And the bags that look like stenciled burlap potato bags?! oui-Please…. PLEASE, just no!! Are they kidding? It will be interesting to see what they claim these “Spud Sacks” are valued at. This does not say “French Riviera” to me ~ not no way, not no how.

I subbed for one year and likes so many other posters. had great hopes for this box, it looked and sounded so lush and extravagent. Since my subscription ends at the end of the year, my husband remarked that he’d like to renew it for me as a Christmas gift, but if the next 3 boxes dont really grab me, I’ll have him do his shopping elsewhere.

Really curious to see what happens with this OuiPlease when all of those annual subscriptions expire at the end of the year, especially now that they have lowered the expected monthly value…

Sorry I double posted.

There are more hints and spoilers on Oui Please instagram and twitter. There are several other jewelry company’s mentioned.

Nothing in the spoiler I want, but I’m stuck with an annul subscription. Don’t like the $60 tiny ring I got from last box, and neither is anyone on swap site.

I am looking forward to this box! I LOVE the simplicity of the jewelry design and yet with the bold touch of color, it can hold itself to a bold pattern. I am soooo excited 🙂

The Mother’s Day box was my first and last box from this subscription. It’s too much money to get such a wide variation in products and value.

No go for me. I unsubbed because of 1.3. I’m still waiting on my promised “gift” because my box was way below value. They don’t respond to my e-mails.

I’m probably a crazy person for even considering it after the massive fail that was the 1.3 box, but I am thinking of getting this. I got the Mother’s Day box and enjoyed it quite a bit.

I will say that I was very seriously thinking of getting an annual sub before 1.3 happened. Now I’ll have to see several successful boxes before I consider taking that risk again.
