His post is dripping with sarcasm , he ' s not actually requesting anything . <| sep |> It will load the page for me , then instantly redirect me to some mobile game page . When I click back , it takes me to the previous page I had open before I clicked your link <| sep |> The LOC brand is still available through Birchbox , but Tati and Birchbox are no longer working together as of January 2016 . There haven ' t been any public statements released concerning why the two parted ways , but it ' s clear that Birchbox has been having troubles . Birchbox laid off 15 % off its staff in the same month that they split with Tatilays 15 i t s s t a f f c i t i n g f u n d i n g e n v i r o n m e ntandneedrebalancecompany , citing problems with funding . Five months later in June , they went through another round of layoffs and scrapped all plans to open brickandmortar stores . They also haven ' t been able to raise any money since 2014 laysoffmoreemployees . Currently Birchbox is distancing itself from its own sampleboxsubscription model altogether . They ' ve also severely watered down their rewards program subscribers used to be able to earn a minimum of $ 5 a month in Birchbox store credit , but as of July they can now only earn $ 5 in store credit E VERsubscriptionboxdecline for the life of the account . With all this considered , I ' m assuming there was a meeting in January at Birchbox where they decided they needed to slim down expenses . They laid off a ton of people and most likely decided to cut ties with Tati at the same time . Maybe they told Tati that they ' d still like to collaborate with her , but wouldn ' t be able to pay her . They probably told Tati that they wouldn ' t be willing to finance the contest anymore , but she still wanted to do it so she ended up doing it on her own dime . Maybe they just put it on hold like they seem to have done with other things like their brickandmortar stores , and that ' s why it took so long for Tati to break away , do it herself , and give a bit of an explanation . Who knows , but with the information we do have it seems like Birchbox was and is sinking quickly . I think the collab was ruined more from their side than Tati ' s . As for the lawsuit , Tati had nothing to do with it . You can read all about it . It looks like the last motion was just a few weeks ago , and it seems as though Birchbox has been ordered to reimburse customers who had their boxes automatically renewed . They also must pay for the plaintiffs ' counsel and incentive awards which is typical for the loser of the court case . I haven ' t the time to look into this too much so there ' s probably a lot that I ' m missing I hope this at least has helped to explain the general idea of what ' s going on .
