BeYours Discussion

Hey guys!

Looking to get one of their girls for my first SD but wondering if I can have some info first

Is there a comparison anywhere of old and new resin colours? I'm guessing the stock photos are all with the old colours but I'm looking to be able to purchase dolls that match their photo colours where possible

What would be the cheapest method of ordering them and delivery to England?

Is there a way to buy the pictured wigs? If not, has anyone found similar wigs and can recommend the best fitting wigs?

Same goes with eyes!

Particularly interested in a Primrose and whatever colour skin she has in her stock photos. But, not sure how I feel about the open mouth/teeth and the photos of the dolls don't give me a good enough angle to see them - I didn't even realise her mouth was open and teeth were showing until just now when I looked for owner photos.

Edit: is there any way for a layaway?

 

what skin tone is he? im thinking of buying from beyours but saw that the normal is yellow looking though your boy does not look yellow....?
thank you

 

Does anyone have Ada? I would like to see photos of doll?

 

I want to show you my P.G. boy)))) His name is Isa :3

 

He's wonderful!

 

So the "agent's fee" is $350 and that does not include the doll? Well, I am very new to this group, but it seems to me the $350 for an 'agent's fee' is absurd. Why should the buyer pay the difference for the fact that the selling company will not provide proper ordering translation? Why should the buyers have to compensate for a 'service' that should be provided by the seller? I don't mean to come off as nasty or rude. Please! Do not think that I am being like that. I just don't get this at ALL, other than it is a very 'shady', "got 'em by the shorthairs if they want to buy our pretty dolls" kind of extortion, lol. Just a newbie's perspective; I am sure someone will most likely, set me straight. Those dolls are fantastic, I must say, but that agent fee seems like a terrible gimmick to me. What happens, God forbid, if something is defective and you have to return it? What happens if the 'agent' gets your order wrong? Do they refund your money? The selling company should have a customer service department that has proper translators if they want to sell internationally IMHO.

 

@WillaJean your mistake is quoting a post from 4 years ago, actually.^^' Beyours can be purchased through dealers now, such as Sunny's World. The post you quoted was back when Beyours was only available through Taobao (i.e. before they ever opened sales internationally). So no, at the time, Beyours was not under any obligation to provide translations because at the time Taobao was only open to domestic orders within China. To order from Taobao, people hired agents (i.e. civilians) who lived in China to receive the products, which would only ship to domestic Chinese addresses, and then pack them up and ship them internationally. The agent fees are the premium you pay to the shopping agent who is not connected financially to the Taobao businesses.

 

Oh, my! That is the second time I have asked questions referring to an older post! So sorry about that, lol. As I mentioned, I am a 'newbie' and wow, there is a LOT to 'take in' where these lovely dolls are concerned, but I am trying. Of course DOA has been incredibly helpful. I promise to double check the dates on post I am reading. I think I assumed it was a current post because I 'thought' DOA deletes older posts. I am quite embarrassed, for what it is worth. Thank you for the clarification.

 

No problem, @WillaJean !xD Mostly just don't want people to start worrying that they have to jump through a bunch of extra hoops to get these dolls. As for older posts, to my knowledge they are never deleted. Instead, once a discussion thread reaches 1000 posts, a mod locks it and archives it, and then a new discussion thread is created. For some less popular companies, like BeYours, it may take years for a thread to reach that magical 1000th post.xD

 

Thanks so much, Kimchi. I guess I'll figure it all out eventually. Gees! And I went to college, too, lol. My first intro to BJDs is Iplehouse and then Fairyland (although I only own IH so far) so I am REALLY lame about this 'stuff' which is why I am so excited to be a member of DOA. Thanks again for your help.

 

I'm currently in grad school and still have plenty of these moments myself, so no worries!xD If you do wind up with a Beyours doll, hope you'll show him/her off in here in the future!

 

Oh, I hope I CAN get one of those beauties one day soon, and yes, I will be delighted to share images. Wish me lucky, I will be a nervous wreck trying to order one, so questions may follow, lol. I will try not to be too much of a pain and will also make sure I try to research past threads, posts and or advice on my questions before being redundant! Excellent that you are in Grad school! Congratulations on that!

 

I fell in love with BeYours Chestnut a couple of years ago and kept saying I didn't need her. I finally got her about a year ago but then she stayed in her box (life). Today I finally gave her a face-up, so here she is.

 

Further, the phrase "agent fee" is probably a poor translation/word selection. $350 would have been the total sales price for the full doll to an agent--not a fee on top of. Typically agents do charge a small fee, but it's usually just a few percent of the order total and is completely unconnected to the original doll maker.

 

Oh, she is WONDERFUL! I adore her! Great, great job!

 

Here is my BeYours Chestnut with Maskcat Ruolan. I *think* they were sculpted by the same person. Please correct me if I'm wrong!

 

Hi guys! Soo after months of wanting him and thinking about his character, I finally ordered my Olive ^-^ ordered him from Sunny's World and he got here in about a month. SW was perfect, only weird thing is that the status never updated to say shipping, he just arrived at the post office.
I LOVE his posing! He is definitely my best poser so far. His face sculpt is so lovely too, I can't wait to give him a face-up. Probably won't happen for quite a while but I'll post it here when it's done c'x

He is wonderful - congratulations! They are really beautifully-sculpted dolls.

 

@cirquemom Thank you! Yes I am so happy with him. Someday I think I'll order one of their girls ~
Anyway here is another picture of him. I haven't posted in discussion threads in such a long time I had forgotten about the one photo per post rule and tried to put multiple photos in that last post >.< eep

Haven't checked out BeYours in a long time, but I just stumbled upon SP Pandy when I was doing the usual price comparison between SWDoll & Legenddoll. Makes me a little sad, because I can't order sleeping Pansy head when I order my Pansy girl! Boo. But the head is very beautiful, I hope someone gets one. ♥

I'm preparing to order my Pansy soon. I've decided to go with Legenddoll, since it's now only about $8 between the dealers. I'm so excited, I feel like ordering her right NOW, but I have to wait a while. XD It's agonizing...

Anyway, I also did some googling and seems like owner pictures of Pansy have finally started to arrive!!! I found this absolutely gorgeous Pansy from necoazie's Instagram: Instagram photo by Korean* Cats* Dolls* • Jul 6, 2015 at 9:26am UTC
Honestly I had started to wonder whether or not to get Pansy at all, and get another BY sculpt (I was thinking P.G.), because it just seems to uncertain if you have no owner pictures of the doll before you buy it. But now I'm totally, undeniably in love with Pansy again. *__* ♥ She is sooooo beautiful.

I'm going to appear in this thread once again when I get my Pansy order in. See you then! XD Please post your lovelies so we can see them! ♥
