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.

Buying doll just for the gift?

    1. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't considered it, but I haven't actually done it. Yet. xD

    2. I bought a Migidoll Ryo head yesterday and some bits just to get there one day birthday event Faith doll. He is gorgeous though and will eventually get a body!

    3. I haven't bought a doll JUST for a free gift, but I have moved a doll up on my wishlist. I had been looking at getting an IMPLdoll Bella for awhile, but putting her off. When IMPL did their free head event, I decided it was TIME! Then I ended up not even liking the head I got. XD I also bought Loki's body during an event to get a free tiny. I didn't really care for the tiny, but I sold it to someone, which helped me get back enough money to start a different layaway.

    4. I've considered it but didn't have the funds at the time to sit with that company for many months while I waited for the order. I would totally do it in the future though now that my financial situation is a bit different <.< I've also considered pre-ordering dolls for the exclusive wigs and other tidbits that come with the doll.

    5. I always wanted a DC Christina for a RPG character I always wanted to make but hadn't planned on picking her up for sometime. And then there was Russell. He shoved his pouty little face in my face and I had to have him. So I moved my purchase of Christina up a bit so I could get a Russell. I can't wait to get him!
      If ringdoll had lucifer when they had the mermaid gift I would have ordered him in a heart beat. But I couldn't bring myself to buy a doll I didn't need/want to get the free gift.

    6. I strongly considered it at one point. Soom's release of their Cinderella fairy doll had a human head, and then a 'free gift' faery head. And I only wanted the faery head. In the end, though, I decided it was too expensive to buy a doll just for one head, and no one was allowed to split the head off due to it being a 'free' gift! I'm hoping the fantasy head will be available in a future Free Choice Event so I don't have to regret missing out on her forever!

    7. Not really...I will buy a doll with the event, if I also really like this doll. For an example; MD Mir, I decided to buy him during his event (free wig, shoes, etc) which costed the same price as after event. And Luts...because I found my dream doll, so I chose to order him during event, so I could pay same price, plus an extra event head which I can use for another new hybrid doll. It saved a lot... :)

    8. No, I haven't considered buying a doll just for the event item(s). Though, I haven't seen any event gifts that I really wanted either. If I was planning on ordering from the company and they had a really cool event gift, that would probably entice me to purchase sooner.

    9. Yes. I ordered Fairyland's full set PKF Cony both for her outfit and the free event faceplate. I'm confident I'll be able to sell the nude doll once she arrives.

    10. I did this once. I wanted the Fairyland Scar Breakaway head and hand, so I ran my order up from one MNF to a MNF and a Puki (which was the exact amount I needed to get the head and hand) that I didn't really want and was planning to resell. I ended up selling the MNF and the parts I got as the gift...but I still have the Puki XD

      I guess it was worth it that time!
