    I wish they would give the reps them free. Iam one and i have to pay for them each time. Even when i joined i had to pay for a starter pack of goodies.
    I agree, my sis is a rep, she has to pay for samples for her clients then half the time they don't buy the stuff from her!

    Hello, I don't know if anyone remembers (or knows about) a thread started ages about about avon samples? We all asked for samples, and most people were disappointed with that they got (or didn't). Avon are well known for being tight with samples even if you ask nicely and tell them genuinely you have sensitive skin etc and wish to try something before buying.

    It's pot luck if you get anything, i did get two samples for anti-wrinkles or something even though i asked for something completely different!

    I won't be buying from them as i genuinely do have problem/sensitive skin, as well as eczema and wanted to be sure i didnt come out in a bad reaction-but they didn't care. So they've lost my custom!

    keely.
