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.

Can anyone tell me anything about Contemporary Doll Shoppe?

Jun 14, 2007

    1. Has anyone had any experience with this E-bay seller? They've got an online site as well here. I purchased my first ever bjd in a buy it now auction last Thursday. I paid for priority shipping and she hasn't shown up yet. That's not such a big deal except that I can't seem to contact the seller. I sent a message through e-bay three days ago to inquire when\if the doll had shipped. Then yesterday I sent an e-mail to the address listed on the webpage. This morning I sent an e-mail to the address the paypal went through to. The mail came and went today without a package so I called but no one answered and I left a message.
      I know I'm probably being impatient, but my last e-bay experience (not with Karen - with a totally differnet seller - just to clarify) was less than stellar and I'd love for my jangled nerves to be soothed by a message from the seller just letting me know that I haven't wasted my time and money.

    2. Hello, I can't seem to get to you through Ebay or your e-mail and I saw this posted here. Your doll went out and has a delivery date of 6-18. I don't have the track# here with me but will try to send it again when I get back to the computer with the info tonight. I did send the track# and info in both messages that I sent. I also checked my voice mail and do not have a message from you so I can't call! It did go out and I really have been answering your e-mails from all requests!

      Oh thank goodness! I was hoping that you were a member here! I'll pm you my e-mail addy from here. Something has probably gone screwy with my personal one so I'll send you my (more reliable) work one.

      I feel so much better now. :)
