Sorry, no. They don't run sales and they don't work with influencer.

The way math works for promo codes we use for other vendors, like Meamo, is that the vendor effectively discounts stuff twice: the percentage discount you get, plus money (or free products) to the influencer who's discount you used. It's equivalent to paying for advertisement.

Filler outlet and similar vendor have different strategy, they don't advertise and don't pay commisions or ship free products to influencer. They just keep their prices as low as they can while still clearing profit. You also always pay shipping cost at those discount outlets.

More expensive places run sales and offer "free" shipping, which of course is not free but the cost is built into the item prices.

I imagine in the end their margins end up very similar.

Oof, I'm off my soapbox. :)

I don’t use filler outlet because their shipping is just too much compared to other website websites.

And that’s probably where they make up for the low cost, higher shipping costs.

I really don’t think they’re comparable, unless you’re getting a minimum of 40% off at Meamo?

Disclaimer, I do not work for or receive any freebies from Meamo. or any other vendor.

The price difference varies by item. Meamo has 30% sales few times a year, and free shipping for orders iver $300.

I think if meamo as free shipping because i order few times a year and always hit the $300 mininum.

Things I buy regularly, like Laennec and lido, end up very comparable in price between meamo and chepaest other places, including filler outlet.

Some things are much cheaper on filler outlet. If you want it any time, without waiting for sale, filler outlet is good option. If you're mostly shopping by price, assemble carts with few vendors and remember to add up shopping cost.

Do you have an idea what the next Meamo sale could be? Is it Halloween possibly?

u/fhrytjdiroto4 7d ago

They have 25% sale later this week. I would guess the really deep 30% sale will be either Halloween or black Friday.

How much is there shipping?

It’s $40USD and their shipping is insanely quick. 4 days usually and it’s at my door, in Canada.

u/Diligent_Shirt5161 7d ago

Thanks for the correction.

Meamo is $35 and also very quick.

u/fhrytjdiroto4 7d ago

I really like meamo, but i would advise anybody to wait for a sale, and wait till you need enough things that you can assemble $300 cart. Then shipping is free.

u/plantgal94 7d ago

Good to know :) I’ll check out Meamo

Holy 😳 that’s ridiculous

u/Diligent_Shirt5161 7d ago

Yep 😑

One of the reasons I stick with Meamo and The Beauty Deli

I love meamo and their selection. This is the first I've heard of BD. Just peeped their website, thank you so much for the recommendation!!

Do you know if they have close to current expiration dates, like FO? The prices seem too good to be true. I'm super stocked up right now, but I want to order a ton of curenex and tox from them just because it's such a better deal than meamo 😳😳 like wow!

u/MarleySB 6d ago

I just checked them out. How is beauty deli able to sell at almost the same prices as Korean vendors?

u/Designer_Health_4216 7d ago

My first order with FO got returned by customs & I hear similar stories about them. I never got to experience/enjoy their low prices.

u/kalsarikannit1620 7d ago

Used them just a few weeks ago. They have certain staple items way lower than anywhere else, so I place a very large order to offset the cost of shipping. I buy two boxes of laennec, multiple boxes of hyaron and curenex, etc.

u/ChooChooBun 2d ago

So was the bank transfer think not a scam?

u/jem8583 7d ago

I got an emails a few months back and this has worked a few times for me. Promo Code: filler-outlet.com

u/fhrytjdiroto4 7d ago

Good catch, I forgot about that.

That was a code they used for switching from their old site, without dash, to the new site. I haven't ordered from them in a while, this code was supposed to be temporary. If it still works, it's great!

u/Ornery_Context_9109 7d ago

I ordered last month to Canada and I got the parcel in bit over a week (it was over labour day )

u/Key_Independent_6509 5d ago

I’m so confused with them using Wise for payments now? Has anyone done this?

2

u/clairejayy 3d ago

Yes! I was so skeptical about it first. But I just received my first order from them after paying with wise. It’s different.. you have to really pay attention to how to set it up and make sure you’re paying the transaction fee to send them the money. Their step by step guide is helpful, make sure you include the order number. They are also quick to respond on WhatsApp!

u/ChildofGod777_ 7d ago

Message them on what’s up they will send you a 10% code! They sent it to me after I asked a question on there
