New Deux Mystery Box Time!

I posted a comment earlier this morning listing what I received (nothing good – not even close!), but now it’s gone. Is anyone else having that issue?

Dang it. Finally got my bags, and I can say this is definitely both my first and last DL mystery box. I won’t use a single thing. When my husband saw me open the box, his exact words were “Wait, you actually paid for those? They look cheap.” =( I listed what I ended up getting below and while I guess the value is technically there, it doesn’t really matter to me since I wouldn’t use these no matter what the RV is. I’d honestly carry my things around in the dust bags before I’d use the actual bags (so I guess I should be glad I at least got dust bags since some people didn’t?). Glad some of you got decent stuff, but I won’t be chancing it again when I could have purchased a tote for under $40 on MyHabit that I’d actually use. These bags are already on the swap site:

– Waverly Messenger in Navy Lace RV $95 – This unlined and is actually see-through, which makes this even worse for me. Why do I want a see-through bag?
– Fathom Satchel in Mink RV $145 – I don’t mind the mink color, but the gold embellishments all over the front make this a no-go for me. I might have used this in high school, but not now.
– Orange Three Wallet – RV ? – I couldn’t find this exact wallet online, but I can tell you I’ll never use it since bright orange is not my color.

I couldn’t find this thread at first. Mine showed up days after it should have.
-Waverly clutch in balck
-Dreamer clutch fold over top in black
-Nomad wallet in navy
I think I love them all! I’m a little afraid of the wallet with all those spikes though! Everything was wrapped and in dust bags.

Very happy with my first Deux Lux mystery box! Got High Line duffel in a gorgeous Mink color, Elle drawstring in black, and Mercury Wristlet, all in nice dust bags. Can use everything, and it was a great deal.

I got my box today. I don’t love anything in it, but I think I’ll use the mercury wristlet and the foiled clutch some. But the big item I got was the dreamer backpack (black). I’m not a backpack person at all and I would have picked the tan/pink one over the black one if I had a choice. And the dreamer print/style is one of the few that I’m not a fan of. So I’m kinda disappointed, but I’ll still buy future mystery boxes from them. This was my second one – the first one was the weekender one (that wasn’t really a mystery). I should have ordered 2 boxes… maybe next time.
Now I can try out swapping!

Disappointed.
I had never heard of or purchase Deuxlux before, but with all of the positive reviews earlier for mystery boxes, I thought I’d give Take a chance.

I did not find any of my products on the site when I went to see what they would be called and priced at. Only one of them had a tag inside (item3).

I received :
– a navy blue suede like tote with orange-ish faux alligator trim that was sort of OK although I wouldn’t of picked it out in those colors. I will try to use this as I always can use a tote. This did come with a dust bag.
– a shiney black, heart-quilted card case. The small case looked OK but I just don’t use card cases, so I’ll be looking to get rid of that. It was too small for a phone to fit in it, which would have made it more attractive to me. This came wrapped in tissue.
-The third item seemed crazy and incongruous to me. It was a off-white lace and sequined hard clutch case that looks like something my grandma would have uses for fancy dress up. I couldn’t find anything even close to what it was like on the site. To me, It looked very old and dated already. That one had a tag that called it “sequin lace”. The latch to open it is very stubborn also. I will probably get rid of this item at the Goodwill store as I can’t think of anyone I know who would want this. Maybe somebody could use it for a costume or something. This item came wrapped in tissue also.

I don’t want to be a wet blanket, but I wanted to provide some balance if anyone else was thinking about getting the next Mystery box. I personally would not order the Mystery box again from this site. I’m glad it was only $50 but I think I would’ve rather put the $50 towards one item I really liked. The first two items seemed of a good quality, and I would consider purchasing from their site.

Is anyone still waiting for their bags? I bought mine as soon as Liz listed it, but I haven’t received the bags or even shipping info. Just wondering if I should be concerned at all or just be patient – which I’m not good at!!

My boxes came yay! I got:
Dreamer clutch in black (up for swap)
Maggie drawstring bag in black (up for swap)
Mercury wristlet in green (mine!)
Downtown wallet in black (mine or gift not sure)
Le Cirque Duffle in Gold (mine!!!!!!)
Mulberry Backpack in white (mine!)
All in all I think that is pretty good!

Got my box today, LOVED everything! 😀

– Anguilla Backpack in Green (MSRP: $105)
– Elle Drawstring Bag in Black (MSRP: $80)
– Downtown Wallet in Black (MSRP: $58)

These were items that I would have picked out myself – love the design and the colors. So happy with this mystery box. 🙂

Anyone else get anything special? This was my first box. I am going back and forth on how I feel about it. The one item that I liked I could have paid $30 on the sale sites and gotten it in a color that I liked. the other 2 items were useless (for me) and up for swap. I don’t have a lot of storage room.

Mine came today. Very happy with everything I received. I got the Downtown wallet in black, Waverly messenger in navy, and Anguilla tote in green.

Yay! Mine came. I got a Lexington Bucket Bag (teal and charcoal), silver passport holder, and Promise pouch in nude. This was fun for my 1st time doing this. One more on it’s way… Anyone know if they do these in-house in NYC?

Can’t wait to see what people got! one of mine is due today. Where is everyone’s boxes?

I received a nomad mini messenger in blue (can’t find the exact one online), the Jube wallet in ecru and the bubbles wristlet in gold. I ordered a second box, but it hasn’t arrived. I’d say my box was so so and I haven’t yet decided if I will use all 3. None of my items had dust bags.

Got mine today, with mixed results. I got:
The Jube Clutch in Black. This is the only item I like. I wouldn’t have bought it on my own, but I will use it.
The Bubbles Wristlet in turquoise. It’s ok, but most likely giving it to our babysitter for Christmas.
Cannot find the final item, which is so not my style. It’s a purple velvet hobo with sparkles on it. I’ll put that on swaps once I get approved to join the swap site.
Overall it was ok. But I’d be better off just picking what I like off their site.

I am actually pretty pleased with my mystery box this time around. I received mine yesterday which was extremely quick being that I ordered it on Tuesday.
I received the Maya tote in black with the handles and inside pouch in a metalllic rose gold color which is very pretty, the Jube Pouch/clutch in grey and the ziggy passport holder in gold.

For those of you who missed out on this mystery box, there are currently some great deals on Deux Lux weekenders, totes, handbags, wallets and card cases on myhabit.com. I really wanted a good quality weekender, and got an absolutely gorgeous leather one for $39. I just used it for a getaway and my friend couldn’t get over how beautiful it was, so I just ordered a second for her as a gift. You’ll have to type in Deux Lux in the search box to find all the items.

Mine came today. The items are quite nice, and good quality, but not my taste. Everything will be up for swap.

I got:

Empress Quilted Tote in Berry
Phoenix Foldover Messenger with fringe in Taupe
Black studded coin purse

So far I’ve loved everything I’ve received from this company (except one of the pairs of earrings). A $50 mystery box probably won’t contain a weekender sadly! I’ve found that I’ve done much better when I order 2 boxes at a time.

Bought this on a whim based on the previous mystery box (even though I wasn’t familiar with the brand) and now I’m nervous! I checked out the site and while I really like some of the stuff, I would never use others (like the bags with fringe or sparkles or writing all over them). Crossing my fingers for something a little office-appropriate!

I so want a weekender!!! Here’s to hoping!

I want one so badly (the last one was a great value) but I just don’t have the funds right now. Maybe the next one!

Ordered! Does anyone know how long they take to ship?

I bought one! Figured why not, loved the last one!!!

I can’t decide. I keep going back and forth on the purchase.
