    Ok kudos to Maria that she was able to take these pics standing – how exciting and wonderful to see these now in OZ , we are the lucky country 🙂

    Woohoo!!!!!!

    Did you tell them to put a few camping chairs out, Maria? Haha

    Haha @Sue. Vertigo asked if I put my name on a few of them, but you know I was trying to be so discrete. I did notice there are more pics of Rob around and there’s an iPad that plays Rob pics.

    I didn’t notice if the commercial was playing … I need to go back.

    I got my A5 pic too with my bottle of DiorHomme Intense and bought some DiorHomme for Michelle since Tassie is not coming to the party! Anything that drives the sales up. It’s a beautiful thing and I was kind of excited to see the final product since it’s been in the pipeline for a few weeks.

    So glad DiorRob has finally arrived.

    OMG- When the hell am I going to get to the city? Oh, that is right; I will be there on the 20th to get my Mosaic photograph. I better ask for extra time off to admire these big Dior Robs and have a long look at that iPad

    @Michelle & Sare – Oh my poor friends! No Dior Rob in Tassie? Life is cruel sometimes.

    I can just imagine you ‘trying to be discreet”, Maria. LMAO. Nothing discreet about asking for the A5 pic 2 DAYS EARLY!!!! At least we know you and Michelle have your RobDior posters and cologne. Three guesses where I’m going tomorrow!!!
    @Sare – We might need a sleeping bag too……..
    Dare I ask if anyone’s Nan Goldin book is dispatched yet? Not mine ….. Trying to stay positive until I hear otherwise.

    Multiple Dior Robs! That just blows my little mind 😀 Maria I have an image of you queued up at the front doors before they opened with a chair in hand and a big box of popcorn in the other ready for your mission. Doesn’t he look amazing in duplicate? Sorry you are missing out Michelle but glad Maria is sorting you out.

    Better than any movie poster I’ve seen – at least it’s all him! Will they spring for billboards, do you think? Huge, gorgeous Rob’s on the side of the road. Park and stare… like being at a drive-in.
    Maria, what restraint. I was thinking of dressing up as Santa wearing a balaklava and holding up the store, saying: ‘just fill the bag with the posters and no-one gets hurt!”

    I’m really upset with Amazon UK right now. They’re just informed me that my order re Cofret has been cancelled, the item is no longer available. I couldn’t hold back, I replied to their email expressing that I wouldn’t be buying anything from them anymore. I’m leaving for work now with a bit of a heavy heart.

  • Michelle
    Posted on November 19, 2013

    I hear ya Silvie, the way Amazon UK handled their ‘selling’ of 1000 Lives is just a disgrace. They won’t be getting my business again that’s for sure. Good on you for sending them an email, they deserve to feel the wrath of the fans. Never once did they say it was limited to 500, left the pre-order option up until just this week, false advertising. My order is still showing as ‘not yet dispatched’ but I am expecting the cancelled email too any time 🙁

    Some of the lucky few have received theirs but SO many of us will miss out – wrong, so so wrong.

  • Silvie

    Thanks Michelle, I guess if I had left it til the last minute I may have been just a fraction more understanding but as soon as I saw it advertised here I pre ordered it. The way I see it, they asked for pre orders and they should have fulfilled their service. They have lost me too. 🙁 Back to work. I guess I’ll put the money towards buying more Rob Dior.

  • Michelle
    Posted on November 19, 2013

    Me too Silvie, clearly they fail to understand the meaning of first come, first served. Spending the money on DiorRob – EXACTLY 😀

    *nods* @ Carmel. Myer here use to be really great, their men’s fragrance section took up a whole portion of the department but last time I went in I couldn’t believe how TINY it now is. Will go in again this week to check again for DiorRob but I’m not too confident 🙁 Shame, there are so many people here who I know are Rob fans that would love to buy it for themselves/friends & family & support the campaign. We all need to move lol.

    @lise-lou if only. I actually turned up after a gym training session – I had to explain to them that’s why I look disheveled it wasn’t because of Rob lol.

  • Maria
    Posted on November 19, 2013

    @Sue – Myer Brisbane were handing them out from Friday.

    As for the Nan Goldin. Don’t even go there. I’m still waiting for the email telling me they are out of stock. It’s a debacle and well sorry Amazon but I won’t be using your services in the future.

  • Maria
    Posted on November 19, 2013

    @Silvie did the email give an excuse along the lines of “sorry but the supplier didn’t provide us with the no of copies we were expecting?” Because that’s not our problem – that’s their problem and you can’t tell me they had no contract in place when they agreed to be the merchant of this book on how many copies they were selling. Not once did the page show that it was limited edition. Until we got the Men’s Style article from Dior in Sydney – we had no idea that it was only 500 copies.

    Misleading advertising and a breach of promise. And now we hear that people who ordered in October have received copies. Not sure if that is 100% true, but needless to say – I’m just waiting for my email so that I can respond.

    Beautiful – thanks for posting Michelle, and thanks to you Maria for getting pics. Hope Perth Myer is lit up similarly. Will be a real buzz to walk in and be surrounded with these huge posters of Rob. I’m on the train – soon. Might even end up with a 5ml J’Adore, which is my favourite. Sorry to hear about Amazon UK fiasco – I’ll wait for mine with baited breath!!

  • Silvie
    Posted on November 19, 2013

    Maria, this is what’s on the email…”We’re writing to let you know that we’ve cancelled the following item from your order ..(Coffret Robert Pattinson-1000 Lives (Ang) Unfortunately, we’re no longer able to offer this item for sale. Our supplier has informed us that this item has been discontinued and is no longer available.
    We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused and hope to see you again soon. Warmest regards…”

    I’m really upset with them for offering something which they won’t deliver. As I said, I would probably make an effort to understand if I just ordered it, but I ordered it when it was first advertised. There’s nothing I can do, I’ll just move on and support Rob however I can. Now I wonder about the book????? Must get back to work.

    Good news 1st. The Dior ladies in Myer Brisbane City are lovely and now VERY well aware of RPAU and how much DiorRob is being promoted on this site. Needless to say they were both amazed and impressed with our enthusiasm! So congrats, girls!

    Now my bad news. Up until as late as midnight last night, my Amazon.co.uk account was showing a ‘not yet dispatched’ message in my account re the Goldin coffret. I just checked it 5 mins ago, and it’s now showing “No history of orders” WTF?!!!!! So I’m joining the NOT HAPPY AMAZON CLUB. Can they just delete an entire ‘history’ like that? Not even a sorry? Maybe they thought I’d have forgotten about an order placed months ago ……

    Awww that’s fantastic Sue, thanks so much for passing that onto them. DiorRob has arrived for you *happy dance* How exciting is it that he has arrived on our shores 😀

    I know, I cannot believe Amazon UK, deleting your order & not even an explanation or a sorry – SO WRONG. ‘The NOT HAPPY AMAZON CLUB’ is going to have many many members. As I mentioned in the other post, mine is still showing ‘not yet dispatched’ but am waiting for that to change. Such a shame so many will miss out when we all were lead to believe our order would be delivered. Amazon UK have handled it all in such an extremely poor & unprofessional way.

    @Silvie – as you will see from our post it’s not a book, but actually posters. Amazon UK are going to get a lot of backlash. I’m still waiting for them to delete my order history (which I’ve screencapped). And you will laugh if you read the publisher’s tweets – I’ll post a link so you can all roll your eyes so far no doubt you will see who is behind you – https://twitter.com/rizzoli_books/status/402464299320606720

    Thanks for the link Maria, it’s unbelievable, I see what you mean about the eye rolling.

  • Sue
    Posted on November 19, 2013

    Hmmm. Just read the publisher’s tweets via your link @Maria. What a joke. I bet they’ve never experienced a backlash like the ones Rob’s fans are giving them.

    LMFAO *sarcasm* “Warmest regards…” ?????? I’ll tell you what you can do with your regards!

  • Michelle

    LOL Sare, that’s exactly what I said. Warmest regards *ROLLS EYES* only makes our frustration higher.

    Don’t worry Sare – I sent them my warmest regards too. Felt good!
