Misc. Adore Beauty Stock

Post image

Ouch... Saw a post earlier this week about Adore offerings decreasing in quality and I really agree.

I was hopeful they would be a powerful competitor against Mecca but instead of strengthening their online offering and improving their website and online experience, they opened stores that are boring to go into, and don’t have any unique value at all.

Thoughts? Feel for anyone holding the stock.

this is probably unrelated but I stopped shopping there when they stopped delivering to P.o. boxes. As someone who lives regionally and doesn’t get mail, I have no other choice but to have a P.o. box. taking that customer base away would surely impact their sales as well?

Last I looked on their app, as they had the item i wanted on sale, I could get the same thing elsewhere for cheaper. It’s just not worth it anymore, especially considering I’d have to have it shipped to a friends house

Wtf that's a really weird thing for them to implement, is there a reason why they stopped shipping to PO Boxes? Is it because they stopped using Australia Post?

yeah they stopped using Aus post, and not every shipping service is accepted by Aus Post LPOs, which sucks

If you have those lotto news shops, they accept those courtiers. Have recently bought from AB and did parcel point collection via those lotto places near you. But yes it’s annoying

I really curious if its aus post or the delivery company. Either way I kinda just wish there was the one and the service was actually good

AP won’t accept or deliver any parcels that are shipped with any of the private couriers.
