Where to find discounted Mac eyeshadows

Just wondering if anyone knows where to buy discounted Mac eyeshadows (I prefer individual pots but would also be interested in palettes).

I want to avoid eBay, as many items advertised there are fake.

Many thanks.

    I'm not sure there really is anywhere genuine here in the UK mapleleaf which stocks discounted MAC. My friend is a MAC devotee and gives me a list of wants every time I visit the US or Canada. I know she has tried a couple of online orders but ended up binning the goods because they weren't genuine. Do you know anyone heading across the pond soon?

    I don't really know anyone heading across the pond, but maybe in the future.

    Do you happen to know how much they charge for a pot of eyeshadow in the US or Canada?

    Looks around $14 on the website for single pots (I thought they were nearer $12 in Jan when I bought the last lot for my friend I'm sure 4 were just under $50) which I guess with the poor exchange rate now makes them about £10. They are currently less than £10 on the UK website so the exchange rate is def having an impact. When I stocked up on spice lip pencils and viva glam lipsticks (my standard shade!) last Sept they were almost half the uk price and they were really fab in that they gave me loads of free samples which was nice.
    Fingers crossed the exchange rate improves soon and you can find someone heading over there otherwise it looks like there isn't going to be a much cheaper option :sad:
