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.

    2. * What did you order? Little Fair "Ren" girl in Unfinished Kit form (Unstrung, unsanded, no faceup or eyes/wig included)
      * When did you order? November 26th 2008
      * Did you order directly from the company, or through a distributor or dealer? Direct from the company.
      * How was the communication? Fine, emails were sent for all updates to my order. Messages left on the Q&A board were replied to on the next working day.
      * How easy was it to pay? Easy, through Paypal.
      * How long did it take to ship? Nine weeks (see below for details)
      * Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Yes. Angel Region are fairly pricey in my opinion, but their dolls are also of good quality. I already have one LF bought three years ago, and the doll I recieved with this purchase has the same quality resin, nicely sculpted body, and no flaws in resin thickness or engineering that I can see.
      * Did the item look like the sales pictures? Yes, for the head at least. As far as I'm aware Angel Region don't have detailed pictures of their LF bodies available.
      * Were you satisfied with the product? Very satisfied with the product itself.
      * If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? N/A
      * Would you order from this company again? If I saw that their processing time remained reasonable, yes. Their dolls are well made and the staff are pleasant to deal with.
      * Would you buy this company's products second-hand? If I wanted to get the doll faster, yes. Their dolls definitely age well, as I have seen with my older LF ^^


      To expand a bit on the processing time; I had ordered an unstrung, unsanded doll with no faceup or extras, basically a box of parts to be finished by the owner. It stated on the page that these kits would start shipping on December 15th, so I was expecting to have my doll around the start of January. By the third week in January there was no word, and I started to get a bit worried given the company's rep with wait times last year before it changed hands. I posted a question on the message board and recieved a response on the next working day. I was told the shipping for UFKs was delayed because of the Christmas and Lunar New Year holidays (and even if AR had been ready to ship, I think the Korean postal services are closed for New Year, so there wasn't anything they could have done)

      Anyway, they promised my doll would be shipped on January 31st, and in fact they sent her out on the 30th. I recieved her today from EMS with no problems at all. Everything was securely packaged and bundled up in bubble wrap, and they had included some free gifts (a wig, eyes, candy, and a little notebook with pictures of dolls from their sister companies SOOM and Rosette). Overall I am very happy with my purchase from Angel Region, and though they did take quite a while to ship, they were apologetic and I think they really did do their best to get my order to me as soon as possible.

    5. * What did you order?

      Half Open Eye Ren Head in milky white skin with make up from the sale section

      * When did you order?

      6-18-2009

      * Did you order directly from the company, or through a distributor or dealer?

      Directly from the company

      * How was the communication?

      I didn't have to ask any questions, but I did receive e-mails confirming my order, my payment, and shipping.

      * How easy was it to pay?

      Pretty easy. Just sent the money through paypal.

      * How long did it take to ship?

      It shipped 6-22-2009. Arrived at my house today.

      * Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion?

      Yes. At only $60 it was kind of a deal. The only problem, quality wise, is that the eyelashes are starting to come out a little, but considering that they state openly that the head was made in 2007, I'm not all that surprised.

      * Did the item look like the sales pictures?

      No. The makeup is rather different. The pictures show rather natural makeup, but mine looks more like a made up face. The lips are where it is most noticeable. In the picture they fade out at the edges while mine have a hard line. Also mine has some LONG eyelashes.

      * Were you satisfied with the product?

      Yes, but I think that has a lot to do with the fact that I never intended to keep the faceup. Buying in milky white skin without a faceup just wasn't an option.

      * Would you order from this company again?

      Yes, but I would be weary of getting their faceup.

      * Would you buy this company's products second-hand?

      Yes.

    10. I ordered a dress, knickers and stockings, all for LF (mini/msd) from AngelRegion (Soom) on the 28th of December. I found the ordering process straightforward except that you get sent to the Paypal site twice, once for authorisation and once to process the payment. I was sent a confirmation by email from Soom that the order had been received and again when it had shipped. My stuff was shipped on the 30th and arrived here in Australia on the 4th. I bought the items while they were on sale and thought the quality was good for the price, although the knickers were a bit too small for my mini and would fit a slim mini or petite doll better. Everything looked like they did in the promo photos and I was overall quite satisfied, especially with the dress which comes with a petticoat, and I was sent some Soom sticky notes in a little folder with their dolls on it which was a nice and unexpected extra. I would certainly order from AngelRegion again, even at normal prices, and would also buy their products secondhand.
