Covet Crate Subscription Box – July 2016 FULL SPOILERS!

I always struggle with the value of this sub, especially since they recently raised their prices. And the $95 “lady boss” box seems to be an even worse value, especially compared to other boxes around that price point (Nina Garcia, Rachel Zoe, LE Popsugar, Oui Please, etc.).

Here’s my estimate in the value of the $55 “girl boss” box:

$12 – Rifle paper co weekly notepad
$15 – Rifle paper co notebook
$3? – Boss lady tumbler (based on the dollar store label)
$22 – Jet setter “hello beautiful” tray
$5? – Lace headband
$5 – Raspberry sangria candle (based on one on etsy that looks to be same size and scent)

So based on my estimates, the “girl boss” box has about $62 worth of products for $55. And it sounds like the extra tote that was also included in the $95 lady boss box wasn’t worth the extra $40.

I’m not sure this box will be able to survive if they don’t step it up a little.

Is there a ‘cancel’ option on their website that I’m missing or do I need to email them? I, too received the Boss Lady Box and am livid as well. Such a scam. I am cancelling right away

This box reminds me of Hello BlissBox except double the price and more items. I keep hoping for a few wow items to convince me to subscribe, the items selected seem boring to me. The color of the lace headband reminds of items in those kids and teen boxes.

If any of you miss this box I can go make something basically identical from TJ Maxx for half the price…

I think this would be good if it was more of a PSMH price point per box or slightly lower. I know they made a big deal of by shipping every month you are SAVING money (27/mo instead of 54/mo for the Girl Boss), but you are getting the same things, just less frequently. The value doesn’t really seem there for me even if the curation is nice. I really liked the opening box, but it seems to have gone down hill. I hope they can recover and really make it something special for professional women!

I get the lady boss box and received exactly the same items with only the addition of a tote bag – beyond livid! Also, I looked at the bottom of the tumbler and it’s from the dollar store. I canceled as soon as I received my shipping notice for this box (didn’t want them to charge me again).

Normally I am very happy with my boxes and know there will always be items I may not use, but with this box and after the last one where they sent calendars in May in Ikea frames, I feel that they are taking advantage of their subscribers and not living up to what they pitch.

I think everything is really pretty and that the curation is very well coordinated. I can think of several friends of mine who would love this.

I agree with Ramya. Wow. So much potential . . . lost. No educational materials or links; no professional tips. A lace headband? really? I wouldn’t wear that during my workout let alone to work. I wouldn’t encourage any of my female millennials to get this. Flowery patterns? Hello Beautiful? I’m here because of my brains, not my beauty. C’mon team, let’s rethink your plan.

Wow. Immediately cancelled. I have the lady boss subscription and can’t imagine what would be that different in that box to justify the price. Most deffinately not worth it when I can most definately get exactly what I wanted for half that price! Nothin special about this at all. I was on the fence with their last box and this just made my decision to cancel a no-brainer.

This had so much potential. What a shame.
