When it was announced that LargeCupLingerie was selling the beige Marcie, I was super excited but wasn't ready to buy any new bras. The other day, I decided to check on said Marcie and realized they had sold out of 30G already. Needless to say, I was pretty disappointed.
Skipping to today, I was reminded that I hadn't worn my 65GG Burek or 30G Marcie in nearly a week. After getting off the scale to see only 3.5lbs left to lose, I figured I should probably try them on. As luck would have it, they're both too big! It's sad news for my beloved Burek, but it also means I should be able to fit in a 30FF Marcie - a size that wasn't sold out! It looks like it might have been the last one, too, so I feel like I got pretty lucky.
As an aside, Bravissimo did have all the sizes the last time I checked (and for the same price), but for some reason they charge $15 for shipping to the states while a company like LCL charges nothing... and they're both from the UK. Shouldn't Bravissimo be the one to afford cheap/free shipping overseas? /shrug
Unfortunately, I am worried about the Comexim order I have on the way. It finally shipped, but I'm not sure if 65J with reduced cups, straps moved in and lowered gore will be enough to make up for the boob I've lost since placing the order. I wouldn't normally be too upset if they don't fit because I know they'll resell eventually. BUT, the Pin Up Girl bikini top is the thing I've been banking on for my vacation in a little over two weeks and it might not end up working. Despite all that, I am excited to try all those alterations as I've never experienced the straps moved in, nor a lowered gore, I think. I'm especially giddy over the idea of a plunge Joy Longline, so I'm really crossing my fingers and toes!
Speaking of which, I was getting a little worried about receiving the Comexim order in time, so I managed to fall in love with a Cleo Cassie longline bikini that I ordered from Breakout Bras yesterday, in a 32G. The band was said to run tight and I am expecting the cups to be shallow as it appears to be of similar construction to the Pansy longline. Because a 32FF Cassie measured in at 10" deep and my Pansy is 10.5", I'm hoping the 32G is the right choice (and the shape isn't totally off). I need that Marcie luck to continue, please!
To make this even longer, for those keeping track (which is pretty much just me), I've officially gone down from 30J to 30FF (at least in Marcie) while losing 25lbs, so far. That's a ton of boob! I don't even consider myself large busted anymore, though they still look pretty big because of how concentrated they are - being short, narrow and projected, my tissue is just not spread out effectively across my chest, heh.
Anyway, my mind is blown!

Ooo, I'm very excited to see your Comexim order! Those alterations sound potentially great! (And hey, maybe if they don't work for you I can buy them off you. ;D)
Woo hoo, lucky that you got one from LCL! :) LCL didn't have my size available either, but I emailed them on Friday to find out when/if they'd have it. I'm like you -- I'd rather take advantage of free shipping than the shipping charge from Bravissimo. LCL sometimes has coupon codes floating around as well. ;) I just got a reply today:
"The release of these has been delayed by quite a bit, which is such a shame for a bra proving to be so popular! We're awaiting delivery of the other sizes, so we can let you know when we have a 32HH available."
Bravissimo doesn't seem to have all sizes in stock anymore either, so they must have gotten a very limited shipment as well.
Just thought I'd let you (and others) know! I guess they weren't actually sold out; they just never got complete stock of all sizes.
