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.

Aria Doll (formerly Everpurple) Discussion

    1. I agree Hobbysue! I'm not really a huge fan of ultra limited releases with no sight of regular editions or even re-releases at the least. Since they're new, I guess we'll have to wait and see how it goes. Two weeks isn't a whole lot of time to gather funds up to acquire one of their lovely dolls. I'm excited to see what everyone does with their Narvy girls though!

    2. I don't think Narvy will be ultra-limited. The manufacturer just opened own website and probably is making a limited time offer. After some time, there may be new, higher price, and maybe the parts will be available separately.

      An info found on Everpurple site shows the possibility of similar scenario:

    3. I just ordered Aria as well :sumomo:
      I got only the heeled legs. After all, those legs were the reason that I loved SD16 girls so much.

      Honestly we should open a waiting room!

    4. They just answered my questions from yesterday. It's mostly a matter of time zone difference :)
      And they said, I can buy additional parts later. Good...

    5. If you want to open one go ahead~ but I don't think there's many people that ordered her.

    8. So far I think that there are three of us who have ordered:) There is a room for Iris and there weren't many people in there as well. Well I guess I will go and open one, post the link here and wait for you to join me in the wait for this beautiful "mixtuer" girl ;)

    9. Here is it:) The Aria Doll waiting room:) Since there was no general Aria Doll waiting room, I created one, instead of creating a LE doll waiting room for just Narvy and Zion.

    10. I ordered her for the body, I'm planning to use it for my Hye. I love the B-cup breasts and the high heels so I really hope it will fit. Planning to put the head in the marketplace as soon as it arrives, although it is pretty I have no use for it.

    11. I ordered my Spring Fairy yesterday. Yay :)

    12. So, bearing in mind this EP/AD fusion-confusion, is anyone capable to guess how might the Volks resin match work this time? Aria claims their resin matches Volks (same as EP did). I've just got myself an EP head (Lusi), need the body (whished there was anyone selling EP one) and I wonder if the Aria's "new" resin will be exactly the same as EP's... D:

      Grats to all of you, who couldn't resist the temptation to order Narvy. ;>

    13. At this point I would be a little skeptical of Aria's claims to match Volks resin since the individual parts on the new girl don't even match each other! Many of the original Iris' had the same inconsistencies. Mine has a head that is a completely different tone than the body.

    14. How drastic is the difference? Are you able to maybe share some photos? It's a truly a valid info, since I was planning on sharing EP/Aria body with my Volks head.
       
      #54 Asatee, Apr 8, 2010
    15. I know that this is probably a question with no answer, but does anyone know what size is Aria wearing?
       
      #55 darkangelxix, Apr 10, 2010
    16. Will they produce eyes again, or has the owner not said yet, I really loved Everpurple eyes.
       
      #56 derilan85, Apr 10, 2010
    17. I don't think anyone knows exactly what is happening with Everpurple or Aria. Perhaps they've split the dolls from the eyes? I'm sure they'll let people know eventually.

    18. I was thinking the exact same thing (about the eyes)!! I looked at the everpurple site and there were no eyes and the same happened at the Aria site. I decided to buy some eyes frombambicrony that has ED eyes!! For two pairs the shipping cost is 25$!!1 i was thinking of turning it into a group order, but I have been handling a very big split these last two weeks (17 people involved) and the stress is killing me!!!

      Btw I managed to find out what size is the eyes that Narvy is wearing:) 18mm :)

    19. I got an invoice from them, what do i do?

    20. sunnysailor, probably You should login to Your Paypal account and send them money. Their address is on the page. I did, and in the title I wrote the order number. And in comments again - order number / date, what I ordered and my address. It worked :)

      darkangelxix, I hope it wasn't so hard, because on the product page there is a description :)
      I think, smaller ones (for example, 16mm) will work, too, but maybe with more mature look.


      For all of You, there is some info from manufacturer:
      - they claim, color differences visible on photos are only on the display model. I hope so.
      - if You don't order heel parts, You should get the doll with basic foot parts, the "flat" ones. The description on the Narvy's page is a bit confusing.
      - ordering heel parts means, You should also get these black basic heel shoes. This is the meaning of "including basic heels", they say :thumbup
