Ebay Delivery!

>>EBAY DELIVERY!!!

I'm telling you... Ebay could be addictive. Gosh! It's been over 3 years since my last ebay purchase. I never thought I'd get myself into ebay again until I saw Lani's 120 eye shadow palette and I just couldn't help myself but get one for my greedy self ;)

Anyway, unlike what I've been doing in the past... I've been sensible this time and didn't go all crazy about hoarding again ha ha ha!



Delivery from Hongkong. They took 10 days to land on my post box from the day I ordered them. That was quick indeed!

Very well packed. It took me quite a while to eventually unwrap the items




The packaging isn't bad either




120 cool colours to play with













Free make up brushes

The 120 eye shadow palette with free 5-piece brushes cost me just over £21.00 including postage and packaging


New set of make up brushes. Nice case eh!



This brush set cost me £1.99 which was a definite bargain! The postage and packaging cost more than the item (just over £8.00 at the end).



I suppose, they're not a bad collection after all.



I ordered this item last but it arrived early.






When I saw this set I had a special person in my mind... You know who you are ;)



Not sure she'll like this set though



This quite pretty set of brushes cost me just over £9.00 including postage and packaging. The brush set itself was £4.99... Not bad at all. I bought this brush set from a seller in Manchester and the delivery took 3 days after I ordered and paid for them.

Hey Gracies! Coincidentally, I just won my bid for that 88 colour palette! LOL.. how much did you get yours for??

I ended up paying for under £17 including p&p. I bought mine form a company called JcNadiaParis where it's based in west midlands - I just thought it was so convenient that it wouldnt be shipped internationally.. but i'll be waiting for 10 days for paypal clear the payment though!!

Oh Nic nic! My 120 colour palette was just over £17 plus postage and packaging (just over £21 altogether) delivered from Hongkong. My paypal payment cleared within 3 days I guess. I didn't bid for it though. For something as cheap as this, I just bought it straight away ha ha ha!

Sorry about my misleading post... I posted it when I came home from my 4th night shift (sigh) ;)

Sis Nikki! Yeah! Definitely one to drool for... exactly how I felt when I saw the palette on Lani's post ha ha ha!

Oh sis Shen! Would probably have been quicker for you to jump on a plane to get it from Hongkong yourself ha ha ha! You could've at least done it on the same day :P. I'll edit this post and include the details of sellers perhaps tomorrow ;)... Yeah, the brushes are quite soft... not too bad but I still haven't tried the blusher brushes and I've got a feeling they'll shed. However, for what they cost me I'm not particularly upset. Ha ha ha! You've blown my cover... Yeah... You guys are all special to me but this one needs cheering up at the moment. I'm just glad that you guys have been making her days a little bit brighter. She needs us in moments like these.

Sis Jheng! I'm glad you're feeling better now but as what I said, now that your mahal is away, you'll have good and not very good days specially when you start missing him but never forget you'll always have friends who love and care about you. Yep... I've been working long hours but I get longer break as well so I think it works relatively fair although 4 nights on a row was a real shocker... and a killer! ;)

great haul! i've been eyeing that 120 palette for some time now. maybe when i allow myself to go shopping again, i'll start placing bids on e-bay! :D the brush sets look really good, too. i especially like the houndstooth cased one.

Gracie said...

Lovely to see you here Tracy! You definitely have to include this 120 colour palette in you make up collection. The colour and the thought of having so many choices is fun. The brushes are quite nice but I'm not overly mad about them although with how much they cost me, they're fairly reasonable :)

Gracie said...

Thanks sis Mhean! Yeah, I agree! I love the greens on that palette as well... I suppose... I love all the shades ha ha ha!

Iambrigitte said...

Gracie said...

Oh, Jheng! Don't be upset! I'm sure your 88 palette is just as good :)
