Luxor Box Subscription Box Review – September 2016

I see mention here of a subscription called Gift Izzy. For those of you who have tried both Luxor and Gift Izzy, could you share which you prefer (and why)? I think I’m finally up for one of the luxury boxes and sort of like the bracelet for March’s Luxor box.

Thanks!

Liz, how would you compare the fit of the Halcyon bangle with the Miansai cuff from RZ? Do you feel like it bigger than Miansai circumference wise? Appreciate your help greatly

Question…
Is the Halcyon Days bracelet round or oval? Mine is oval and I’m thinking it shouldn’t be. I Would really appreciate feedback. 🙂

If I win some money the first couple of things I would have to buy is a few really expensive subscription boxes that I drool over month after montb. Sad right. But it is true….

If someone is not happy with their box, I’d love to buy the whole box or some items (i’m least interested in the candle). Please email maya.thevenot [at] gmail if interested.

Although I didn’t like the July box very much (particularly the clock and skin products) I really enjoyed the Black Box and the Sept. edition. I love the Halcyon Days bracelets in both and have actually started collected them. I also really love the Rose et Marius tumblers and soaps. It would be nice to specify colors for bracelets and such, but I think people would be happier if Luxor stayed away from orange bracelets and the like. More neutral and feminine colors (like pink) seem to be more pleasing to the masses. And although the Heirluminare candles are not my cup of tea, I can appreciate their quality and the set from the Black Box was great for swapping. Also, I think people don’t realize the edition in the Black Box contained 2 candles and a tray. The tray is what also increased the value over what was provided in Sept. The single candle was perfect for me to keep in the Sept. box. I do wish Luxor had a bit more brand diversity, but I have been pleasantly surprised so far. Have not had the CS issues yet and hope to have a different experience if I do.

I signed up for the bangle. I got a color that I’m not super thrilled about – but finding it hard to swap for other colors. I’m happy enough because I only wanted the bangle. The rest of the box doesnt work for me. It would if I didnt pay $650 already for the black box (the perfume and candle are now repeats – even if the scent isn’t…. this rollerball scent has rose in it and that doesnt work). 🙁 the other items are not my style (vase/mirror).

If I didnt shell out all that other money, I would be SUPER happy with this box. …but not with the repeats (and color sent). Wish we could pick our colors. But know that would be a nightmare logistically for them. Oh well.

Overall, the CS has been pretty good to me. In middle of little hiccup, but will see how it progresses. I do want to defend them on that front a little.

Signed up because of the bangle and I’m thrilled! It’s nice to get costume jewelry, but this was fine jewelry and at that price, I think it was a bargain. I got the cream color, which I wouldn’t have picked for myself, but I actually really like it. The roller ball I also love!! The other items helped me swap towards something I’ve always wanted. My two boxes (summer special box and this one) with Luxor have been good to me so far. We’ll see if I stay on for November.

I can’t believe they can get away with charging that much for a box, the stuff is way over valued. I agree with others that the Robb Vice sub is way better and at half the price. I am surprised that cheaper sub’s get ripped apart for not having enough value or quality items but boxes like this its supposedly “valuable” because it cost so much.

I spent months reading rave reviews, on this board, about the Luxor boxes. I read all of the past reviews of their boxes also. I finally took the plunge & gave them a shot back in Feb for the Love Valentine box.

I was soooooo beyond disappointed with it. It was a waste of $250 when I spent that on the Popsugar Must Have LE Neiman Marcus box 2 months earlier & what a stark difference between the 2 boxes when In came to quality! Because of that one bad experience, I just can’t give Luxor a shot again.

I really wish j could!!! I keep reading reviews on their boxes. With battling breast cancer this year along with losing a huge chunk of income going with it, I just can’t afford to waste my money. If you go back a year or two with them, it seems they had better boxes. Maybe that’s just my perception. Who knows???

I have to be honest, I loved the past boxes. Not July, I have enough awards, thanks, but all of the rest, I truly enjoyed getting. I am worried though as they have really poor customer service (see the forum as so many have had problems). They barely stand behind their products if they are damaged and try to demand that the customer send back the damaged item (yes, fine) but at the customers expense (no) and pay for the hopefully non damaged item to be shipped (nope). They push exclusive black box at $650 as exclusive, you can only get here, but then include items from this box in less costly mystery boxes. They sent damaged backpacks out and when one was returned, they shipped the damaged one to another forum member, They push you off then claim the 3 day time for replacements has lapsed. I enjoy that they copy other Le’s/luxe boxes and maybe stalk the forum for what we really want in a box and put it in their boxes, but standing by your products is important. I’m wary on staying due to their horrendous customer service. This isnt an inexpensive box, but $129. (a little overpriced and should be $100) I dare say, Popsugar has far better customer service and is kinder than Luxor’s snootiness and unwillingness to stand behind the products they send when proof of damage is shown
