So we finally got our October box today.  It was pretty much a hit with my hubs, so we're keeping it for now!  Bonus:  I get to try his stuff he doesn't want to try. 

But they should be shipping soon, shouldn't they?  

 
They never got back to me about my BF's mest up box. And they tried charging me a couple days after receiving the box. So we didn't continue with the sub. Sucks though because my guy really loves getting it.

Ours was a hot mess getting to us!  But he loved it so we're sticking it out for a while and see!

Thanks!  I showed it to him!  There is a contest to win a year's sub on the video...pretty nifty, too.   :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I know he'd love the Varvatos and the Suki.

 
anyone got confirmation email yet with tracking code? Hope it being late this month wont mess up next months schedule

 
I have a tracking # in my account but it's not active yet.  Also, I haven't gotten an e-mail.

But it looks like the boxes are posted.  So far I see 1-7?

i havent discovered how to tell what products im getting other than the "click each item see if it says feedback" technique

You sign on to your account, then click on "Box" heading (beside Shop, The Guide, etc.) and if you scroll down, you'll see what box you're getting once it has updated.

Also, boxes are up!   (Don't click if you don't like spoilers...hehe!)

The image place holders are still there I see. Birchbox has pretty much locked me out from doing sneak peeks now that this is the 2nd month in a row they've put a place holder for the images.

 
argh, another month my boyfriend won't get BB Man, he knows the 12 Society guys, so he won't sub to a competitor. 

whomp whomp. I need help finding products to style his newly adopted wild loose curly fro. 

 
Box 7.  Anyone know what size the american crew set is?  Is it a full-size (travel size) set?  If so, that's $20 right there.  If it is packets, well, that's sucky.

Husband is very bald, so I don't think the hair creme will go to use for him, but we have friends who are into hair, so we'll pass that along.

I hope the EvolutionMan is a good sized sample as I think he'll like that.

The wallet is both stupid and smart.  I thought  it was stupid at first glance, but he does carry just a few cards with him sometimes and that seems like a good way to do it.

 
My hubs is getting box 7. Which is alright...but I know he'd rather have one with shaving products in it. ;-) Hope the sizes aren't puny like the BBWomen boxes!

Boyfriend got the American Crew sample in last month's box.  They just sent the body wash, not the whole kit...maybe they'll do it different this month though?  But I wouldn't expect much.

The American Crew "set" is not accurate description. It's VERY misleading and I'm surprised no one has filed complaints with the NY State Attorney General's office for deceptive and misleading advertising. It's like how it's not accurate when the women's boxes show that the person is getting a perfume that's 50 ml when what a person actually gets is a perfume sample that's 0.005 oz.

Any who... it's one item from the set and it'll be a random item. Here's what it was last month since the same thing was sent out last month.

October 2012 box 4​

My hubby is getting box 1.

  1. EVOLUTIONMAN Wash and Buff -- probably 0.5 oz or less
  2. Atelier Cologne Vétiver Fatal - 30 ml -- this will be a tiny vial that will be 0.005 oz
  3. The Art of Shaving® After Shave Balm -- probably 0.5 oz or less
  4. Old Calgary Oxford Wallet -- a $35 wallet that looks useless
  5. Billy Jealousy Combination Code Face Moisturizer -- probably 1 oz or less

BTW - the Old Calgary is an Etsy shop! The wallet is sold there for $25.

LOL Showed the hubby the wallet and he said to give it to our 10 year old son because the wallet looks useless to him.

I ONLY saw the body wash passed out last month.  I didn't see where anyone got anything different.  Maybe I just missed them?  

Anyway, box 7 is kind of annoying in a way because IF they send out just the body wash again, we'll be getting 2 body washes.  Which I guess it okay, but kind of silly.  I'm certain my husband will love the creme styler and the cologne sample.  

 
im getting box 3. Hope the shampoo and conditioner isnt the stupid foil pack like prior. I wanted to try the Artisan cologne. And i get the wallet
