Description

The listing, AVON EXTRAVAGANZA Stuffed Flat Rate Box Auction has ended.

This is an AVON EXTRAVAGANZA auction.

Here's the back story. My mother used to sell Avon. She no longer does and has all these goodies sitting in her house for the last couple of years. I am on a mission to help her get rid of it!

This is how this auction will work.

Every 100 credits will win you another item in the large flat rate box until it is full. (I won't run out of stuff... see the picture above?)

The first 5 items are as follows:
100 credits - Anew Night Force Vertical Lifting Complex
200 credits - Anew Instant Eye Smoother
300 credits - Anew Retinol Hand Complex
400 credits - Anew Body Force
500 credits - Anew all-in-one perfecting lotion

After that, I will keep adding one item for every hundred credits bid. I will choose what goes in the box after this because there is just too many items, I cannot list them all. I will, however, take a picture daily to show what was added to the box the previous day.

Once the box gets full (or hits 70lbs.), I will take a picture of everything. The highest bidder at the end of the day (midnight PST) can ask to switch one thing out and ask for a specific category to be placed back into the box as long as it will fit (shampoo, make-up, lotions, etc...).

Winner to pay 16.00 for shipping with delivery confirmation.

DISCOUNT SHIPPING OFFER: Shipping costs will come down by 0.50 cents for every 1000 credits! So if this auction hits at least 32000 credits, the SHIPPING IS FREE! If it doesn't hit 32000, at least there will be discounted shipping.

If you win another one of my paid shipping auctions that will fit in this box, I will add it to this box and not charge shipping for that auction.

Due to bad experience in the past, I will keep credits if you bid, so serious bidders only.

Questions & Comments

Do you have any face cream? I really need that! I'm in the East Bay so perhaps I could pick it up :-)

Can you tell me how many different items you have? Not total, but with no repeats? Thanks!

Apr 14th, 2012 at 11:58:10 AM PDT by

I think one of the anew products is a face cream. There is so many different items in the boxes that I am postive there is more face cream. I will check for you when I get home. As for repeats, I might throw in lotions, nail polish, etc. from the same line but with different scents or colors. With everything I add, I will provide a picture and a list of colors or scents.

Apr 14th, 2012 at 12:33:15 PM PDT by

Gotcha, well I really like all these products, so I guess I have to save my money up for the shippiny (smile)!!

Apr 14th, 2012 at 3:20:33 PM PDT by

Or maybe the shipping will come down enough to be close to free? =) Happy bidding.

Fanned and watching

Apr 14th, 2012 at 6:20:39 PM PDT by

Thanks! Happy Bidding!

Amazing auction I love it, and the shipping is pretty fear I wish I can get, just a question do you have perfumes and makeups in another boxes this is the most stuff that I like in avon, and if yes like you said I can make changes? F/W

Apr 14th, 2012 at 6:34:44 PM PDT by

There is some makeup, nail polish, I didn't see too much perfume bottles although there are plenty of samples. Samples are kinda small so if I do add that as an item, I might add a couple.

Apr 15th, 2012 at 9:19:44 AM PDT by

Here I am again watching
Question? If there are that many products. Set up a separate. Auction
I am looking for the fragrance line CANDID AND BECOMING by Avon

Apr 15th, 2012 at 10:51:14 AM PDT by

I will see if I see that fragrance in there. However, I didn't know too much perfume in the boxes. I will check and see what fragrance the samples are and maybe list those separately? Thanks for watching again! =)

Apr 15th, 2012 at 10:59:51 AM PDT by

Do you have the cleanser that was just discontinued?

Apr 15th, 2012 at 9:10:02 PM PDT by

I'm not sure which cleanser you are referring to. All these items are a few years old so I guess it depends. Give me the name of the item and I'll see if there is any in the boxes.

Apr 15th, 2012 at 11:06:47 PM PDT by

Very Nice auction New fan & watching to bid.

Apr 16th, 2012 at 2:28:45 AM PDT by

Thanks! happy bidding.

Apr 16th, 2012 at 8:08:48 PM PDT by

Anew Ultimate Age Repair Creme Cleanser, Thanks

Apr 16th, 2012 at 8:26:27 AM PDT by

Sorry, I didn't see that in there.

Apr 16th, 2012 at 8:08:31 PM PDT by

are this products expire because some products are good for a year or O do not know maybe AVON is different thank you great auction

Apr 16th, 2012 at 9:23:59 AM PDT by

I do not know if any of them are expired, I would have to check. However, with my background in chemistry, most things with expiration dates are not hard fast rules. Chemicals used in products generally are effective well past "expiration" dates. For some items, the efficacy of the item may be reduced, but still perform. Storage of such items is also a consideration when talking about expiration dates, and I know these were stored in a cool place and out of light.

If anyone is concerned about it, please contact me and I will check for you before you place your bid.

Thanks for looking and happy bidding!

Apr 16th, 2012 at 12:03:05 PM PDT by

No worries thanx for lookin!!

Apr 16th, 2012 at 10:23:36 PM PDT by

No problems. Happy Bidding.

Apr 16th, 2012 at 11:27:03 PM PDT by

nice auction, but shipping, WHEW!! fanned & watching!

Apr 14th, 2012 at 2:21:58 AM PDT by

Yeah. 16.00 is a doozy, but shipping a large flat rate with delivery confirmation is $16.10. If the auction doesn't go that high to fill a large flat rate box, I will move down a size and the winner will pay to ship a medium flat rate box with delivery confirmation. Plus every 1000 points this auction goes, the shipping will come down. Thanks for looking!

We had a similar situation in my family. My grandmother sold Avon but developed Alzheimers..ANYWAY, she was always winning the Presidents Awards and stuff SO, needless to say she had A LOT LOT LOT of stuff that we ARE STILL trying to get rid of..THE ANEW stuff that I have IS a little outdated but there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG with it and I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! GREAT AUCTION! GOOD LUCK! F&W!

Apr 26th, 2012 at 12:33:44 PM PDT by

Yup. I still use stuff from these boxes. There is just so much of it taking so much room. Thanks for your comments.

Thanks. Happy bidding.

Apr 16th, 2012 at 9:13:44 PM PDT by

Well, I'm out, I don't have enough credits left. I hope you'll put some of your other Avon stuff for sale as well.

May 1st, 2012 at 6:57:00 PM PDT by

Well I can't do anymore updates because it is close to when it closes. But here is what changed due to request from last night's high bidder:
10. Hydra Finish Lip Color (color brown sugar) TAKEN OUT
Wash-Off Water Proof Mascara PUT INTO BOX

SHIPPING COST UPDATED TO $9.50 due to 13K credits.

May 1st, 2012 at 6:20:00 PM PDT by

Hi, great auction :) I just bid and am high bidder at the moment. Doubt I have enough credits to actually win, but if I'm lucky enough to be that person I would like to have the boxes with the products even if that means a little less items in the box. Keeping my fingers crossed...

May 1st, 2012 at 12:27:10 PM PDT by

Well that offer was only if it will go over 45k and I don't see that happening. Good luck bidding!

May 1st, 2012 at 6:13:41 PM PDT by

Well, let's leave all the big stuff but any chance you could take out the red lip liner & nail polish if I win and put in a mascara & eyeshadow if u have them cause I can't use red?

May 1st, 2012 at 5:50:23 AM PDT by

I changed a nail polish for mascara for you since you were the high bidder yesterday.

May 1st, 2012 at 6:14:12 PM PDT by

I love this box!!! I would like to win all of it! Ive been watching for days. I need some acne stuff for the teens if you have any. Also shampoo and conditioner is great. If have any Haiku stuff toss it in. Or sweet honesty. Thanks!!

May 1st, 2012 at 12:03:14 AM PDT by

I don't have any acne stuff, but shampoo and conditioner sure, what did you want to remove in order to put these in? I may need to take something larger out in order to fit the bottles. Let me know and I will exchange it.

May 1st, 2012 at 12:34:54 AM PDT by

FYI you can order free shipping supplies from the post office online I have ordered a bunch of envelopes and some boxes too but unfortunately they still charge you to ship order ahead it takes a week or 2 to get the supplies

Apr 30th, 2012 at 6:25:00 PM PDT by

Thanks for the info. =)

Apr 30th, 2012 at 9:08:07 PM PDT by

Well, I was the highest bidder last night. So I'd like to do an item exchange.

I'd like you to take away one of the lip-liners (I don't use them) and substitute it for another face or eye cream (if you have it), or another face cleanser or any acne treatment. If you don't have any of those, how about another deodorant or shower gel? I know they are physically bigger, but you don't need to physically put it in the box given that I'll pick it up in person :-) If it does need to be the same size, I'd prefer an eye pencil (black if possible) or another makeup product.

Apr 30th, 2012 at 3:10:38 PM PDT by

done =)

Apr 30th, 2012 at 9:02:10 PM PDT by

The heat is on") i have lots of credits to spend my friend so get ready. just a little friendly banter, yea!! this is fun and exciting!

May 1st, 2012 at 7:37:39 PM PDT by

WoW this is soooo low priced! you really are just trying to get rid of this stuff i wish i had enough credits! but the only way i could do that is if i listed something wsith gin and it was used...

Apr 30th, 2012 at 5:13:14 AM PDT by

Well the price is based on what people want to bid =) Depending on what I have left after this I may or may not list more AVON stuff.

Apr 30th, 2012 at 6:41:59 AM PDT by

Awesome auction :)

Apr 29th, 2012 at 8:16:20 PM PDT by

Thank you again =)

Apr 29th, 2012 at 8:31:56 PM PDT by

Nice Auction!! F&W!!!

Apr 29th, 2012 at 11:11:49 AM PDT by

Thanks! Happy bidding.

Apr 29th, 2012 at 8:32:21 PM PDT by

I love Avon! My mom sold it for like 20 years & I feel so deprived since she stopped! I never knew just how spoiled I was! I still have (& use!!) Avon products from like 15+ years ago that are still good! For the most part, they don't spoil or expire from my experience.

Apr 28th, 2012 at 9:50:53 PM PDT by

I have had lotions from other companies that haven't done so well after a while. The avon stuff I have been using and I haven't had a problem with it yet.

Apr 28th, 2012 at 11:37:29 PM PDT by

Great auction! Will you be sending all that you list? You know, you can purchase a plain large box at Walmart for 58 cents and ship it fedex for about $13 if you wanted to get rid of more items.

Apr 28th, 2012 at 5:58:38 AM PDT by

Yes everything on the list will be in the box. As for getting a bigger box, I will look into it. It is getting pretty heavy so I don't know how shipping it another way may affect the cost.
