I have just sent the following to Ashley at OuiPlease and I included links to each product with the correct retail value:
Hi Ashley,
I received my 3.2 box, and I am relatively happy with some of the items in it, but I have a big problem with the advertised value of this box (and pretty much every OuiPlease box). A lot of your customers are pretty ticked off at the inflated prices in the booklet that are obviously falsified to reach your advertised value of $350.
Here is what was in my box:
Les Nereides Ballerina Ring. OuiPlease lists at $60.00. Nes Nereides website: €55.00 ($65.45)
Lull hand cream. OuiPlease lists at $86. Lull’s website: $62
Popup candle. OuiPlease lists at $40. Popup’s website: €25.00 ($29.75)
La Cocotte pouch. OuiPlease lists at $50. La Cocotte’s website: €15.75 ($18.75)
Iles Formula sample pack (9 ml each of shampoo, conditioner, & serum) and a comb. OuiPlease lists at $25. Comparable kit with 4 times the product is $28.50. Actual value is closer to $8.00
Oui Love It Biscuits. OuiPlease lists: $30.00. Actual value: $4.85
Unbranded poor quality beret that is coming apart. OuiPlease lists: $59 Comparable item: $12.99 (or less)
OuiPlease listed prices total exactly $350. The actual retail value is $201.79. OuiPlease has inflated the price of this box by $148.21.
It seems really suspicious that the listed prices come to exactly $350. It is obvious that they were inflated to reach the advertised value. This is fraud. It is illegal. If you didn’t promise such a high value, this would be a lovely box, but because you have advertised and continue to advertise a $350 value, you have a lot of customers who have been defrauded and deserve compensation.
What will your company do to rectify this criminal deception?
