After receiving my fabulous Fancy Mystery Boxes last week (you can read about them here and here), I just couldn’t help myself and had to order another one. I once again went for the Large Women’s box option.

If you aren’t familiar with Fancy, they offer a regular monthly Fancy Box full of cool goodies or celebrity curated boxes which include a collection of the coolest products hand-picked by Jennifer Love Hewitt, Verbal, Kelly Rowland, Snoop Dogg, Coco Rocha and / or Tyler Florence. They also offer a Fancy Food Box (which is one of my favorites). In addition, Fancy is now offering Mystery Boxes in three sizes – Small ($10), Medium ($20) and Large ($40), and either Men or Women.

As per usual, my Fancy Box took two days to arrive.  I ordered it on 4/17 and received it on 4/19.  Super fast right?  This Mystery Box shipped via FedEx from MA, however, some Mystery Boxes also appear to be shipping from New York.

I am always stalking for Fancy Box spoilers, so I was actually pretty familiar with this box when I opened wit.  I wasn’t totally excited about it, but I wasn’t disappointed at all either.  Fancy Mystery Boxes do not contain information cards, but my box contained the following items:

~Sophie Sparrow Shark Tooth Necklace ($40): I actually received this necklace in a previous Fancy Box, so it will likely end up in the trade pile.  Fancy Mystery Boxes don’t make any promises regarding duplicates so I go into the boxes knowing that it’s always a possibility.

~Chunky Knit Infinity Scarf ($16): I love this!  However, I hope to not having to wear this infinity scarf for the next few months (at least)!  At least.  It’s thicker in person than it looks on the model in the link, but I like it better this way.

~Square JellyFish iPhone Stand ($14.95): This is also a repeat for me so this will end up being swapped as well.  It does work nicely when you want to prop your phone up, ohh, say to entertain your little one with Thomas the Train videos during a long wait at a restaurant.

~TKO Milano Skeleton Rubber Watch ($95): I never wear watches, however, that hasn’t stopped me from always wanting this watch.  It came in a Fancy Box last Spring, but we were receiving the Men’s box option at the time, so we got a different watch.  I don’t know that I will always start wearing a watch just because I received this, but every once in a while for sure.

All totaled I came up with a value of $165.95 for the Women’s Fancy Mystery Box (Large).  I paid $47.95 ($40 + $7.95 shipping) and totally enjoyed it.  I didn’t fancy it (get it – LOL) as much as the last one I received, however it was totally worth the cost.  I love Fancy Mystery Boxes because you just don’t know what you will get.  It could be anything!

Did you get a Fancy Mystery Box?  What’d you get in yours and what size did you get? If you are interested in buying one, go here and search for “Mystery” and you will see them.  The drop down menu will let you pick the size of the box (Small, Medium or Large)  you want and Men’s or Women’s.  And don’t forget to use the code “FOLLOWUP10” to save 10% off your order (some people can get this to work, some can’t.  Not sure why?).

    Not bad! Where do you swap your items at?

    1. Jennifer

      Usually a Facebook group I am in. My Subscription Addiction has a swap site too!

  2. Laura K

    My large box should arrive tomorrow, and I hope I get that necklace because I’m in love with it big time! The watch be the rest is just icing on the cake. These boxes can really give you some serious bang for the buck.

    1. Jennifer

      I can’t wait to see what you get! Hurry up fancy!

      1. Laura K

        My box arrived today, and I got the same things you did. I’m tempted to get another large box, but I don’t want to risk duplicates at this stage.

  3. Teena

    Thought you might be interested in this site sale http://www.disabledmommyof2.com/ Also they’ll be changing from LBB to Pose where you can sell or trade your items similar to ebay .
    Have a great week.

    1. Jennifer

      I have heard that!

      1. Teena

        Just thought I’d inform you.

    I ordered a large box on the 9th, and still haven’t received it. I’m outside of Chicago, and it went from CT to California, and has been stuck out there for a week. Fancy says they’ve had it redirected, but I’m really disappointed.

    1. Jennifer

      That’s certainly taking the scenic route!

  5. Sarah Jo

    I got this same exact box. I LOVED It. No items were dupes for me!

    1. Jennifer

      I thought it was a good one!

  6. Iris

    So interesting that you got it in the usual Fancy box! I believe most people (myself included) received the same contents in the rectangular Fancy box. If I had an unlimited budget, I’d be ordering at least three more Large Fancy mystery boxes just to see the variations! XD

    1. Jennifer

      Ha. I would too! I love seeing them all!

  7. Lisa

    That’s a fun box! Love the infinity scarf !

    1. Jennifer

      It was a good one!

  8. Katie L

    Oh. My. Goodness. I have been looking for that necklace for months!

    1. Jennifer

      It’s been showing up in a lot of the Fancy Mystery Boxes!

  9. Jenny

    Agree this is a nice box but hopefully you won’t be using some of these items for awhile. I do wear a watch everyday and this one is so cute.

    1. Jennifer

      I better not have to use that scarf. For real.

  10. julie b

    i remember when you got that necklace! i love it. i would trade you for that! i just got the too natural palette from posugar. want to trade?

    1. Jennifer

      I have that one though ;(.

      1. Julie B

        True, but the necklace is duplicate too. I could throw in ipsy lashes & blue glitter polish too. That’s pretty much all I have. (Worth a shot) 🙂

    1. Jennifer

      As long as I don’t see it until next winter I love it too.

  11. Wanica McNeil

    Hi Jenn,
    I got the tiny camera+film, aiaiai pipe earbuds,new York city map glass. I’m pleased!

    1. Jennifer

      Cute!! I haven’t heard of that variation yet.

      1. Jessica

        I got that in my men’s medium box and the same women’s box you got.

  12. Judy

    I have all the other items, but not the scarf, which I love! On another note, shortly after getting that watch in my Fancy box, I found a bunch in a sale bin at Anthro and I mean EXACTLY the same except they didn’t have TKO branded on them and were only retailed at like $40 prior to discounts. Guess it goes to show how much the price reflects the brand than the actual product sometimes! I still love it though. 🙂

    1. Jennifer

      Interesting! I agree on the branding. It probably is like $5 to make. LOL!

    You got a great box! I love the watch and scarf! I FINALLY got my small mystery box. It was mistakenly sent to California, and it took two weeks to get to me on the East Coast! I liked what I got this time, though. It was kind of random: a wooden postcard, a coaster, individual pie plate, and the nail polish and dreaded bath salts from the early boxes. I thought it was pretty good overall. I posted my review of the box here: http://baublesandtreats.blogspot.com/2014/04/fancy-womens-mystery-box-review-2.html

    1. Jennifer

      Not a bad box. But not as good as the first one!

    2. Kelsey

      I got the same box! I was pretty much okay with it. Thought the wooden postcard was kind of neat! I ordered another and I’m worried because the shipping weight was exactly the same! I thought by ordering two weeks later, I’d be less likely to get a dupe, but I may be getting the same stuff again! Oh and my first
      Box also shipped across the country due to an address mix up.
