This is the last of my three month subscription to Qbox. There are some items that I really liked, and some that I could have lived without. That's pretty typical with Qbox though.
Each month Qbox gives you a cheat-sheet explaining all the products. They are usually pretty self explanatory, but this month I had no idea at all what the candy/treat was. It wasn't listed on the cheat-sheet at all, so I was left to take a risk. There was absolutely no English on the package. After eating it, I have no idea what the flavor is supposed to be. The texture is unique too. All I could pick out was salt and funky aftertaste. Maybe this is why there was no information provided...
The Kumaman tote bag is actually a pretty big deal as far as I can tell from my web searching. He is apparently the most popular mascot in Japan. The Monsters Inc. cellphone stand was a surprise. I wasn't expecting to get a Disney item in a Qbox. The nail stickers are great. I've used some and have really liked how they work.
The makeup again this month is from Too Cool for School. This must be a huge brand in Korea, or easily mailable to us in the U.S. It is a highlighter and lives up to its name. There was also a really cool Galaxy Necklace in this month's Qbox. In the cheat-sheet it showed that there are a ton of different designs. I really like the color scheme that I got. This is my favorite item in the box.
Since this is the October Qbox there had to be some Halloween items. The socks are kind of a fun design. It makes me wonder though, everything is printed in English. The other items in the box don't have any English on them. It seems like Qbox may be reaching to put together things to fit our American holidays.
So, was it worth it...my Qbox subscription was $68.85 for three months. I am happy with some of the items in the box, but I could have lived without all of them. The total value for the items in this box is $71. If they were items you are in love with, it's a great deal. I went to the Qbox site and saw the peeks at November's box and decided not to order again. I will continue to get emails with a some hints, and who knows...I may go back to Qbox if there are items that pull me back.
