1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    1. Oh no! And I never got another big guy!
       
    2. And another large doll selection bites the dust. Folks are having problems with orders and getting responses from Leeel too.

    3. Not many on the secondary market either...argghhh. I always wait too long and miss out.
       
    4. Is AOD out? Saddens me because my first doll was an SD girl from them.
       
    5. I've been lurking on this thread, and am meaning to get a doll from them someday, so I decided to ask Alice's Collections, a dealer for AoD, about the issue. This was their reply:

      "Dear (my name) ^^,

      Thank you for your email.
      Please don't worry, AOD is working well, we're still placing order and receiving dolls from them :)

      Please feel free to contact us for any question.

      Have a great day n_n

      Best regards,
      A"

      So it looks like everything is fine! :)
       
    6. Oh I hope so!
       
    7. AoD.net was actually a distributor's site, not the company's site. The distributor is gone it seems and has been awhile now. There are other places to get the dolls new and even the big boys-
      Alice's Collection (as mentioned)

      ebay
      items in store on eBay!


      HappyHouse (this one can be tricky for windows OS users to access. It's safe but some virus protection will refuse it, not sure why. I've ordered from these guys several times, they're legit and they have a sale on AoD right now)
      ...hmmm. Actually, email them first to make sure they still exist. Their promos are still from last year...

      http://legenddoll.net/

      http://www.aoddoll.com/default.php
      (This is a Chinese site where the English option doesn't seem to work. I'd email first)

    8. Thanks for the updates. I was concerned as I love my SD AOD body. There is also my crush on Yue. :love
       
    9. yes I had a look at happyhouse4you last month and wondered if they'd gone bust too - I got my first doll from there so it will be sad if they have - Never mind the fact that their AoD 90cm boys are a whopping $200 cheaper than Alices! Although I think postage is dearer from them - Alices are very reasonable on postage and of course free if you order $100 of accessories ^_^

      I totally regret selling my 90cm Bo to ragdollkitty a couple of years ago though - Just because I didn't know how to remove his faceup or restring him - I was such a noob :doh
       
    10. Poor Elve! I feel your pain! I've sold a few dolls too in the past that I still regret 7 years later because I was a noob back then and didn't know what I was doing. *big dolly hugs!*

      With Alice's Collection, while it doesn't state layaways on the site, you can get one with them if you email them first. I asked them directly and they were very nice! I was going to buy a 90cm boy from them earlier this year but I got mine through a trade instead. yay me! but YES, HappyHouse was soooooo inexpensive for the big guys! I'll be sad if they went out of business too; they were very nice. Another store I knew carried them (and I bought a commissioned dress from) went belly-up too though the legend doll site almost looks like it could be her. That's a pretty darn cool store, I suggest people browse though it!

      At least we have a couple of options left for AoDs. They have such solid bodies and great posing! And cute sculpts! There are a few I need to get myself!
       
    11. thanks chalyss ^_^ And yes I love AoD - they are terrific quality for the price - my first bjd was AoD Qian with the default faceup, and I still love her :D

      with my 90cm guy I knew nothing (he was my 2nd bjd, bought when I still hadn't even dared take the headcap off my Qian!) and I blithely thought I could restring him :doh He lay in a box in bits for a while, then I managed a loose stringing, which nearly killed me LOL - weakling! Seriously you need some strength or some help to string one of these big guys though :nosebleed
       
    12. wow i found this thread finally >3
      I am saving for one of AODs 90cm dolls right now ^^
      i am about on 1/3 of the price >_<
      but i want one for sure. I always wanted a 90cm dolli
       

    13. I agree! I had to use my teeth on part (and I don't recommend it!) cuz they are HARD to string and restring! Warning to anyone squeamish out there too... the AoD 1/3 boys are more life size in their resin boy bits too. Like the size of a newborn. Kind of shocking!
       
    14. Congrats, I have considered getting one but carrying around my 70cm twins is hard enough. I'll just enjoy everyone's big boys.
       
    15. They are a bit heavy to haul around! Love my boy to bits though.
       
    16. ROFL - a lot bigger than that chalyss! I didn't dare take his underpants off for months - although the underwear was sufficiently see through that when I showed him to my teenage son, he look aghast and just said 'WHY??' :horror:
      Bo was the first male bjd I bought, and it was a bit too realistic! The best thing about that is no other boy doll can possible shock me now ^_^
       
    17. I think I'd get a baby buggy next time Molliebean! The hardest thing I found, being only 5 foot tall myself, was posing him, because his leg joints were so snappy they could take your finger off - and I could only use one hand to pose him, whilst holding his entire weight on my other arm :nosebleed

      worst of it was I'd only had him a few hours and, not being used to bjd at all (only had my Qian then) I didn't realise they could suddenly 'snap' backwards from a slumping pose - Well Bo did just that! Knocked a big chunk out of his headcap on my cast iron bedstead :doh

      So yes they aren't easy to handle! I still want another one though :XD:
       
    18. btw i have the same problem with happy house X_X maybe someone can ask fopr me if thex still sell hale
      i can't find him on anys other sale page (and i'd prefer him >D)
      otherwise can someone spam owner piccs please *o*
      i'd like to see some
       
    19. Happy House seems to be defunct. You can get Hale from Alice's Collection or on ebay from... Jerryama, I think. Both are excellent dealers and stores!

      ELVE, HAH!!! My brother in law, who hates my dolls, said the same thing! It's a shocker, that's for sure! They need nice, roomy pants for their... bits. Can you imagine an AoD 90cm with an adjustable bit?? On Magnets??! Literally, you could poke an eye out!
       
    20. Jeeryama doesn't sell AoD dolls. Dollonline2009 sells the 1/3 on down. Other than Alice Collections I can't find another dealer for the 1/2 guys, and Hale isn't included, I'm sorry to say.
