I have a feeling this has already been said a million times, but I am officially baffled by how overestimated so many of the prices are with Memebox, but the boxes are still a good value (for the most part) and they're really fun, so I'm sure I'll continue to buy far too many boxes. But their shop prices really bother me.
I just bought a ton of stuff through there (nearly all stuff I could NOT find ANYWHERE else that I really did want to try), most of which I bought during their "sales' where their items are marked down at least 50%. Their sale prices aren't bad for some items, but some of the sale items I could still find elsewhere for half the price. What really bothers me though Is I just purchased 2 of the Vitablets. After placing my order, I checked online and I saw a site selling it. It was just under $7, and also included a smaller (half size) jar. I bought two, paid around $12 shipping, and after being told the smaller jars were out of stock they offered to send me an extra regular/large size. Basically, Basically, for Memebox's regular price (not including shipping) I could have purchased more than 6 jars, including shipping. I can't help but feel a bit insulted by this. For those that haven't already picked up on this, or haven't already learned their lesson, I would suggest paying close attention when buying through their shop.
