I ordered 4 prismatic eyeshadows from their US website as they were unavailable in the UK. With tax included it came up to $30.50 but since they do not deliver overseas, their company endorses MYUS.COM for all international shipping with the promise of free standard membership. This is well and good but the price of shipping by MyUs is extortionate and had ended up costing me $39.85. This means that it has cost me about $80 to purchase simple eyeshadow weighing 0.6lb. I find it outrageous that NYX would partner with such a shipping company. It appears that these two companies are complicit in suckering unsuspecting customers into this scam. In what world is it reasonable to spend over $80 for 4 eyeshadows.
I just thought I would let NYX know how much of a disservice they do to their international customers (or maybe they just don't care for them).
