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. Umm.. I feel really un-smart, but what does SA stand for? I've been wondering this for a long tim now, I know what it means, just not what it stands for. Thanks!

    3. SA is a DollShe Company term used to identify their "Dreaming" heads. It means (or so we've been told :)) Slack Afternoon. So, you can have an SA Bermann, an SA Hound, SA Saint, SA Bernard...the dreaming eye option!

      That is an SA Bermann in my banner.

    9. Work in progress. People usually use it to refer to a doll with an involved look/personality that has to be custom made over a few months, or when talking about a doll they're sculpting themselves.

    13. Just wanted to note that 'Unoa' is not a company -- Unoa is the type of dolls that are made by the company 'Alchemic Lab'. You might want to note that. :)
