FabFitFun: Full Customization Coming For The Summer 2021 Box

STOP SENDING ME EMAILS FOR OLD POSTS!

Yae! Fabfitfun has once again changed their model. Conformed to fit their subscribers wants and needs. Keeping up interest by creating new buzz around this new feature. Pretty smart. Proving my point that causebox can do whatever it wants. It doesn’t want to be a better experience for its subscribers, obviously. Well fff has won again!!!!

I had decided not to renew. I have a drawer full of unopened products from the past couple boxes. Been giving them out as thank you presents etc.

HOWEVER! I have one box left on my annual prepaid account so I’ll see how it goes and see if I will in fact renew.

I started to lose confidence in FFF when they partnered with Summer and Rose. I ordered several Summer and Rose handbags as add ons and I was disappointed in the quality. Anybody else feel this way?

Wow, I had one monthly box ages ago and never felt like another box would be worth it. With FULL customization, I think the annual sounds like a good deal! I’ll wait to see if they offer another box big bundle for subbing up or something, but this is very promising and tempting.

I love being able to customize more!!

Hmmm. I cancelled my annual after the spring box – it was the end of my subscription and I realized that I was just accumulating stuff. A lot of stuff. Stuff that includes the purple cactus cup. But now I’m thinking about subscribing again since these sound like interesting updates.

Maybe I’ll go sort through my four boxes and consider my life choices. lol.

After reading a lot of these comments, it just proves no matter what poor fabfit fun does they can never win. I’m happy. Love being an annual member.

I just do seasonal and cancel after each season. Then, I watch the spoilers and sign up for the next box that appeals to me.

Sounds like the swap-for-credit replaces the ability to skip a box. 🙁 I personally would rather just skip and extend the sub rather than have credit to spend.

Wonder if the swap-for-credit replaces the ability to skip a box? I personally would rather just skip and extend the sub rather than have credit to spend.

I have decided to renew just because of this change. This will be my 4th year with FabFitFun. I like the idea of customizing everything in my box. In addition, I like the idea of getting a $45 credit to use every 3 months if I don’t like the box. After so many years with FabFitFun, I’m not sure that I want every box because of the similar items that come out every year. I have also given away a lot of items over the years. This new change will allow me to pick the items that I’m going to enjoy and use the most. I call this a win for FabFitFun!

I guess I’m the minority here, because I really like the mystery of subscription boxes!! Im afraid if I know everything that’s coming, it won’t be as exciting to see it on my porch. That’s part of the fun for me, sitting down with a beer and digging into my box to see what I got.

Maybe for the summer box, I’ll pick a few and have a my hubby pick a few for me, that way it will still be a surprise, and would be interesting to see what he chooses for me!

This doesn’t mean customization options will be any better, it just means we’ll be able to choose the least bad option from the group, which is better than the current situation by far. But there will likely still be three categories of cheap & unappealing overstock or bargain bin items with overinflated values. Maybe now fewer items will end up in the trash.

They had to do this at some point or go back to the previous model of FFF picks bc when ppl don’t know what they’re receiving, they can’t figure the items into the value of the box, especially bc the items were such a random collection and some were total garbage. So people are less likely to subscribe when the perceived value is lower and all members were dissatisfied because determination of who gets what was nonsensical. So the relative value of the box was brought down for everyone and discontent was brewing.

Changing the FFF picks in the 1st place was just another way to inflate the value and pad the box with more filler items, in house brands, Ali baba/private labeled goods and bulk purchased overstock.
When everyone got the same 3 FFF picks atleast they were generally good quality, from well known brands, and universally attractive items.

Make no mistake that any change to the subscription is done to increase their bottom dollar while giving you less for your own.

i still wish they would just let you SKIP, period. i don’t want the “credit” to shop. I’d rather just buy 4 box credits, so i can pick which boxes i want and skip the ones i don’t without being sacked with a credit towards shop items i may not want.

Nice!

Although I very much miss the days of the “hero item,” I realize those days are long gone. They had to do something so this is a step in the right direction.

👏👏👏👏👏

Plot twist: next season’s customization is just all cactus cups, BUT WE GET TO CHOOSE OUR COLORS.
[Disclaimer: this is a joke. This is not happening.
But if it was, I would choose pink.)

I gave to my pre teen granddaughter and she loves it! My 21 year old daughter loved it to too, it’s a teen thing!

Glad they’re finally doing this. It’s absurd for Suzy to get makeup rounds and Mary to get nail polish when Suzy wanted the nail polish and Mary wanted the makeup rounds and now Mary and Suzy are paying shipping costs to send these $5 items across the country to each other when FFF could have let Suzy and Mary pick what they wanted in the first place and all the disappointment and resentment could have been easily avoided. If FFF is left with a surplus of cactus cups at the end of seasonal and annual customization because no one wanted them, they can put them in the heavily discounted seasonal boxes that they sell at the end of the season.

Good idea! I like where this is going

Yeah, they have to do something because that last box was shameful, it was like a face oil and Big Lots rejects as filler.

Ooooh, I was just saying how I don’t really miss all the “stuff” with my past FFF sub. Still true, but these improvements fix some of my other main issues with FFF. Well done!

I’m still aggravated at receiving that awful cactus cup.

YASSSSSSSSSSS
