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. The only freebies I've ever gotten was a nine-9 yosd tshirt and stripy socks from Angelesque because they took a really long time getting my order to me ; u ;
       
    2. Mint on card, gives these yummy marshmallows...yummm..
      Ive also gotten from other stores free tiny eyelashes..yay!
       
    3. The host of a doll meetup I went to gave us collectors chocolate and our dolls a bottle of wine each... I'm not sure how I feel about my MSD drinking as much as I do, aheee~
       
    4. Best freebie I got when I ordered my 21cm Obitsu, and that was a box of strawberry pocky...I guess Jspot doesn't do pocky anymore? XD; I haven't gotten anything like that since 2011 from them.

      From Resinsoul with my Bei/Zi hybrid I got a free pink wig, just like the one Bei wore in her company pics..Unfortunately it doesn't fit her but I got a liv wig I was going to us for her and it fits so perfectly.
       
    5. I got an extra pair of eyes from Resinsoul and another place I ordered wigs from (the names escapes me atm) gave me a couple of free hairclips UuU
       
    6. I've only bought one doll so far (from Bobobie) but I got a free pink lolita style dress with matching headband... so that was cool even if pink isn't my favorite color.
      And it looks good on my doll so... lol. I'll take it.
       
    7. I got some free eye putty from Tata's. How wonderful because I bought eye putty from you in the same order! They could have at least given me something useful...
       
    8. I got a bag of Korean cheeto-type snack and lollipops from Dollpamm. The character on the front looks a little bit like Hobbs from Calvin and Hobbs. I also bought a wig from someone and they threw in some cute clips because they took a while to ship it!
       
    9. Some of you have received some very high quality items. I guess it really depends on how much you spend at a given time...
       
    10. LMAO okay so this isn't neccesarily a company freebie, but when I bought my first doll from a friend of mine, they promised that they would give me whatever MSD leftovers they find lying around since they had no use for them anymore.
      I've recieved a bunch of random clothing at odd intervals since then, but my favorite would have to be the time that they presented me (without comment) a pair of MSD slip on Vans and a pair of MSD black, lacey underwear with garters.
      ... Sexy.
       
    11. When I ordered from Captured In Glass for some eyes, they sent me a tiny baggie of some weird yellow substance labeled "gift." I'm assuming it's eye putty, but I've never opened it. o_O
       
    12. I've since learned it's standard for them but when I ordered my first doll from Angell Studio I wanted to be fully prepared so besides maintenance tools I also got a carrying bag... And then they sent one with the doll plus the one I ordered. I facepalmed so hard when I opened the box.

      On the bright side I ended up buying my second doll a lot sooner than I thought I would so now I have one for her too, and AS was kind enough to send me two different colors so I can tell them apart without having to peek inside the bag, haha.
       
    13. When my daughter and I ordered our first dolls from Junky Spot the end of 2011, we both received a bunch of stuff. We both got fortune teller fish and candy and I got a cd while she got the DVD Doll Master.
       
    14. I've received a small plastic container (not sure what to use it for :) and Russian nesting doll key chains.

      Deb
       
    15. I got a little tiny plunger and a little pen in the shape of a pill from Tata's Paradise.
       
    16. Crobidoll sends me free tissues with photos of their dolls on the outside every time I order from them. Handy! I also got a calendar when I ordered right around New Years. It was a really nice one too.

      Tata's always throws in a bunch of free stuff. I've gotten SD wine glasses, a mask for my doll, jewelry (necklace and a headband, I believe), an SD shirt, and they gave me wee ice cubes once?

      I can't remember if this was MoC or DDE but I got a free key-chain.

      Several places have sent candy with my order. Cuartos sent an entire chocolate bar with my dragon Lell.

      Captured in Glass has given free eye putty, lashes, and extra eyes before. They're very nice.
       
    17. I got a free Jewel Bjd by Jakzjewels when I purchased my beautiful tan Pasley girl. She even came with a pair of high heeled feet.
       
    18. I think the weirdest freebie I've received to date was a sleep mask from Crobidoll ._o (A human sized one, mind you, not a doll prop.)
       
    19. For weirdest, I just got a... mushroom with a wire sticking out? From a Taobao seller, as gift with a lot of shoes.

      Seriously, it's just a small but not small enough to be doll scale ceramic mushroom, with a bit of floral wire poking out the bottom. I thought it was a paper clip that got unbent at first, but the wire does not look to be the type and anyway the mushroom is too bulky/heavy to be a paper clip decoration. The only thing I can think of is that you are meant to wrap the wire around something and have the mushroom affixed that way.

      As for best, Musedoll sent me a free gift full outfit (shirt, pants, cardigan) with an order of two heads.
       
    20. Was there some sort of clip in the package? Look up "mushroom hair clip". They make it look like you have a mushroom sprouting out of your head and seem to be pretty fashionable these days :P
