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.

Best/oddest freebies

Feb 21, 2010

    1. Some companies, like Luts, Soom, and Fairyland, do not send freebies. Some do, even if it's a piece of candy. I don't count the cards they send as freebies, but they are nice to look at.
       
    2. I hope by the time I am ready to order my next doll, Junky Spot will have him...I want the random goodies! If they carry both dolls I want...OH.YES. Randomness will be had.
      I am a sucker for surprise goodies. XD

      I did get sneakers and a watch for my doll when I bought jointed hands from a member on the MP. I was so thrilled! They happened to be the sneakers I was looking for, and the little watch was bronze tone and very stylish for my boy. <3
       
    3. I love the cleaning sponge and wig spray that comes with Volks full-choice dolls. It is useful and practical. I wish Volks would send a set of free strings, too.
       
    4. I love the marshmallow candy with the fruity jam filling Mint on Card always sends. Though you'd think with a name like Mint on Card, they'd send minty candy. xD

      Most of the times my freebies are candies. Ordering from Dollmore, I get some doll stuff, though it's like... never the size of the doll I ordered. When I ordered a 1/4 doll, they gave me a 1/3 hoodie. When I ordered my Zaoll Luv, I also got a wig that is totally not her size either.
       
    5. The only place that ever gave me freebies is Dollmore. (Although when I ordered from Ringdoll and it took 7 months to get my doll with 0 communication from them, when they finally replied to my emails they told me they were going to send a gift to make up for it. I got nothing. Yay!)
      Freebies I got from Dollmore, other than pins and postcards: christmas stocking, (human size) socks, glass eyes, rice crackers, SD girl leggings that don't fit any of my dolls, MSD shoes, calendar, random wooden puppet thing, 2x super cute kitty keychains that are pretty much my favourite thing ever.
       
    6. I got some nice freebies from Dollmore, too. My favorite is a pair of jeans that I got when I got my Model Doll Leah doll. My DDDy Alna usually wears them these days.

      I got my Leah late in 2009, so I got the 2010 Dollmore calendar. I also got some of the star crackers, postcards, pins, a 1:1 scale wrist band (I had no use for it ^_^'), and a couple pairs of eyes.

      Being so new to the ABJD hobby, I threw out the first pair of eyes because I thought they were oddly shaped. I thought they looked like frog's eyes. Then I got a second pair of eyes, and I realized the shape was normal, and they probably would have been lovely black iris eyes. Oh well.
       
    7. Dollmore sends the best things out, in my experience.
      I got a big felt stocking from them once, a badge, those prawn cracker things (which I actually didn't eat! Dx), and a notebook.
      The best was when I got a pair of shoes, though. I'd already bought them, then got an e-mail from Dollmore saying they were actually out of stock so I switched my order to another pair of the same price. When my order arrived, one of my free gifts was the pair of shoes I'd wanted all along! It was awesome.
       
    8. My boy came with a free wig (Of my choice!), eyes, face up and underwear, but that was all standard for the ebay seller I bought him from, so nothing surprised me.
       
    9. Someone I bought a doll from second-hand put several outfits, shoes, and wigs in the box so my girl would have a wardrobe to start out with :)
      And as for MOC candy, it's surprisingly good! I just put it on my dresser for three days while I debated on eating it. Haha I'm glad I did though! And I hope I get more with my pre-order Ringdoll and my other order of Angell-Studio stuff. :D
       
    10. I've only gotten candy from companies. My sister got a weird dvd once from Junky Spot though. Never watched it. ;p
       
    11. Love Dollmore. They sent me a pair of awesome socks that fit me. Very comfortable with pink and white stripes. XD

      Also a calendar, wigs and eyes. They really are the best.
       
    12. Your lucky you didn't get the JunkySpot thong everyone seems to talk about... XD
       
    13. Thongs? Emory sends people underwear? I'd never heard of that. I've only gotten snacks, erasers and, once, a CD. Is this a HUMAN sized thong or for a doll?
      I wonder how he decides which orders a pair of skivvies is more appropriate to XD
       
    14. I bought my Leekeworld Ent at a doll meet-up and thought I was just getting her. I ended up getting two pairs of eyes, a bunch of clothes, and three pairs of shoes.
       
    15. I got a free set of eyelashes and some eye putty when I got my Dane. I don't know if it came from FantasyDoll or Mint On Card,but it was a very nice surprise.
       
    16. I love the marshmellow candy that Mint on Card gives! it's soo yummy!:)
       
    17. I agree but usually I have to fight my cockatoo for it. She likes it as much as I do.
       
    18. I recently started fighting my boyfriend for it. I always find some excuse to order from them lol.. kinda sad.
       
    19. Tahiti has started recognizing when I get boxes because chances are she'll get the candy inside.

      I've also always gotten some nice things from BBB. Free eyes (more than one pair), shoes, wigs. It was a pleasant surprise the first time I ordered.
       
    20. The only freebies I've ever gotten were a free headband and a head cap from cool cats. I guess it doesn't help that I mostly just buy from Luts and Volks.

      Although, I have to mention that I have received some candy from several members here on DoA when I've purchased some items here. :)
