Cosmetique Unsolicited merchandise Vernon Hills Illinois

When accepting the free make-up package be sure to read everything, on every page, rather than scanning. Below are the terms and conditions copied and pasted directly from a survey in which Cosmetique is an offer:

As an introduction to the Cosmetque Beauty Club, you will receive your first Cosmetque Collection for only $5.00 plus $5.95 shipping and handling. Then, as a Cosmetque member, you'll save over 50% off retail values on exciting, new beauty collections, sent to you monthly. Plus, occasionally you'll receive special collections ideal for gift-giving. No matter how high their value, you'll pay only $19.95 plus shipping and handling, for each future collection you choose to buy,conveniently billed to your credit card at the time of shipment.

Your complete satisfaction is guaranteed! Each beauty collection will feature a wide variety of full-size prestige cosmetics and fragrances - never any samples. You have no obligation to purchase another collection. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied, you may return any collection for full credit and you may discontinue your membership at any time.

These terms and conditions are also stated on all print campaigns. (mail in offers). The terms and conditions are in 7-8 point font, thus easy to read with the naked eye.

I respond to internet offers, mail offers and surveys all the time, not just Cosmetique; However, I am sure to read every page thoroughly and am sure to cancel immediatley after I see the first CHARGE to my credit card (NOT when I receive the first pkg, that can be too late).

Bottom line: protect yourself from yourself and READ all the small print before providing your CC information.
