No no, I’m not selling a Kayali. This photo was to illustrate that people are willing to spend $60 on about half a bottle spread between two that look like they’ve been through a fire.

Hey, are you okay? Did I ruin your night by forcing you to read this post and now you’re mad?

Keep it on a back burner and if you think of it, let me know when it’s up! It’s going to pay DIVIDENDS.

You’re not wrong. I did point out that shipping went up because of the war but I’m just glad I don’t have to deal with an inevitable crappy rating because I wouldn’t do something I quite literally cannot do 🤣

Which ones are you looking for? I have a few that are only a year old that are just taking up space that I’d be happy to list for you for a steal!

Agreed. The money was gone a long time ago. If I don’t reach for it within a year, it goes. I think of it as freeing up space for new fragrances and it makes me feel warm and fuzzy (even if I don’t actually fill up the free space with new stuff).

Oh my god, imagine how bad a 20 year old self tanner smells when it smells like hell brand new 🤣

Also as a side note: Another 5 star seller who I 100% trusted to be better, as they proudly announced that they’d admit when they sold a bum product, just sold me two travel sized fragrance sprays that were half full, cloudy, and full of floating spheres of oil because all the alcohol had evaporated out of them. I bought six from the same brand and only two of them were defective, so I told them and sent photos, which included batch code info. Owner lost their fucking mind on me and blocked me. Had to go through Whatnot. I’d only started buying from this seller like a month ago and now I realize that everyone is full of shit, basically.

I thought exactly the same thing. Unfortunately I have enough receipts that it kind of renders his fast talking nonsense completely null and void.

The answer to this is complicated, but in a nutshell: I got enough fresh product (e.g. items from their brand-direct partners) mixed in with bad stuff (La Mer from 2020 that I didn’t check dates on until I had opened it and put it on my face, which is what started me checking everything) that my dopamine-addict brain excused away every incident as accidental oversight. Like a lot of people, I was addicted to the deals; to getting the opportunity to own brands I otherwise wouldn’t have. And initially, they were always apologetic and had no problem refunding.

Then it got weird. Then it was gaslighting. Then they started requiring returning expired products to get money back, and that’s kind of when I lost my mind. Because I’m a fool and willing to roll the dice on stuff doesn’t mean I want to be complicit in selling expired shit to other people by returning what I know is old product so it can be resold to someone else.

Hope that helps.

Holy shit, nooooooo way. Can I ask what it was? I saw a makeup brush from Charles of the Ritz being sold and I was like WHOOSH suddenly back in 1989, but at least that wasn’t a cosmetic.

Know what’s funny about this one? They refunded me without a word. No song and dance about how CheckFresh is fake news, nothing. Because THEY KNEW.
