Beauty Advent Calendars Thread 12 - reeling in the aftermath of SFAC, we soldier on... 💄💋

[LightandBreezy]

Welcome to the 12th thread, we still have 50 days till the daily unboxing officially starts, although I very much doubt any of our calendars will remain untouched until then 😂
Still time for lots more friendly chat, tips and discount codes - to cut down on links as a poster requested, here's link to some very comprehensive run-downs of the calendars https://beauty-detective.com/category/beauty-advent-calendars/
When enjoying those breakdowns please remember that some are OOS already - Harrod's Fragrance, Harrod's Beauty and Selfridges Beauty to name a few.

Breaking up the set carries its own risk. You’ll sell the most popular ones probably. But then left with the dregs , and it’s Russian Roulette as to whether people want the rest. If not, you’ll be stuck with it possibly for a while

Good luck everyone - I woke up at 0230 and was tempted to look but have myself a virtual shake.

Ah good luck everyone. I really cant get involved today. I really do want it but im just not uo for the stress. I git the HFAC so I cant complain. Really hope everyobe that wants one succeeds (and who know whether i'll try anyway after deciding that?)

there are so many young males that are mad about fragrance! I am member of local group and most people that buy from me when I post anything are males. I don't think they are as gender specific!

So true! Wonder is there a dadsnet equivalent community out there! Being equally frustrated!

Yeah same. Im a member of a few FB fragrance groups and I reckon theyre 2/3 male tbh

I would say more of them suffer in silence - they aren't as good in sharing and supporting each other as we are :)

Also true…. TBF

Hopefully it is today and everyone who wants one, manages to get one 🥰

Good luck today everyone who is trying to get one. I'll be keeping everything crossed for you.

My poor DH didn’t get in from work until after 5am but is going to try and wake up at 9am to attempt (probably in vein) to get me one. We don’t have a laptop, just phone, iPad and an old desktop that we have had for years and rarely use. He has downloaded the app on his phone and added the calendar to his favourites. I start work at 9am and as I work with children I cannot have access to my phone so DH is my only hope.

That’s funny you say that about men! The few fragrances I’ve sold on Vinted from CBAC and JLFAC have been to men! I presumed it was for their female partners but now you’ve got me thinking!

I am hoping to get SFAC this morning but unlikely as I’m on train to London and I’ll be pulling to King’s Cross around 9:30 which is notoriously terrible for reception! I will however try…. I seem to remember there was a code for free delivery if I am fortunate enough to add one to bag… can anyone remind me of it please? Or did I imagine it?!

Aww bless him, I hope he manages to get you one 🥰

It’s odd that there’s no queue-it page.

they probably don't like the bad rep from last time!

They did get roasted, I’d say!

Hi just catching up on the thread. Good luck to everyone and hope we all manage to get a sfac (those who want one). I’ve noticed on eBay that the calendars are coming down in price, people reducing them, especially those who have taken the lust in paradise out and selling rest as a set. I can understand when people buy a calendar and they sell some of the items if they don’t like the scent. Feels unfair that some people bought loads just to sell on.

If you click on the s FAC it goes to a restricted access page 🙄🙄🙄🙄 looks like there will be the same queue malarkey

The queue will open soon for the SFAC

On my tablet it says the queue will open soon when I click on it

The queue will open 09:05

Anyway, good luck everyone. I’m off to work now so I won’t be able to try and get one.

On my phone it’s this…..

Sorry photo didn’t post

I am getting the same
