So one of my Facebook followers PMed me about Box Monthly and was concerned about it due to the poor customer service and the products looking to be old and/or from EBay. I think I have heard of Box Monthly or I might just be confusing the format with Makeup Monthly since it's the same idea.
Considering we just dealt with Posh Pod, which in the end turned out to have been a scam since they were buying products from EBay for their "Pods" and were also sending out counterfeit M•A•C products, I did take a look at Box Monthly and noticed it's set up on Wordpress and that the boxes look to be cheap with a homemade label stuck on (you can see that the label looks to have been roughly cut to fit the box).
From their blog:
http://boxmonthly.com/
For only $12 a month you get the best new Luxury beauty full sized items and healthy treats for your bag.
In reality the price is $17 a month because they charge for shipping.
From the About page:
From the July box I see a Macadamia Natural Oil hair packet along with an Eyeko eyeliner... both of which came in different beauty boxes (Macadamia Natural Oil hair packet from Test Tube and Eyeko from Birchbox).
One of her subscribers received the July box and the box wasn't sealed, the products were leaking everywhere, one was EXPIRED food, as well as dirty plus the inserts appeared to be homemade printouts and when she contacted the owner of the company the owner told her to unsubscribe if she was unhappy and went on about how expensive it is to mail the products but not a word about replacing any of the broken, damaged or expired products! Personally looking at the site and hearing about that one nightmare has cemented in my own head that this is one company I do NOT want to deal with.
Anyone here a member of Box Monthly? If so did you get your July box? Pictures?

For someone with a social media background, much less a writing background, her website looks unprofessional, messy and alarm bells are just ringing for me about them just based from their website. IT screams Posh Pod all over again for me. Now I'm not saying she IS a scam but from what I was told that one of her customers was blocked from posting on her wall for asking questions about the July box.
