Apologies for interjecting as a lurker, just wanted to say while I don’t have experience buying anything new from DearMine, I did buy two of their special sale retired/display dolls ( directly and not only was their customer service amazingly sweet (they even sent us those cute little Picasso socks as a gift), I had the dolls in my hand from Korea to Canada in less than a week, and didn’t have to pay any customs. It was kind of mindblowing, but I don’t think the stars would align like that again.
Yep, same here. I like ordering from Dearmine as they are very generous with layaway and usually send you some little goodies in the box. Denver Doll is pretty good, too, although I've only ordered wigs & clothes from them. Fabric Friends & Dolls is an excellent dealer, very trustworthy.
Ahhh, you all are amazing! Thank you so much for sharing. I think I will likely end up ordering direct from Dearmine with all the nice words y'all have to say ^o^ I like Denver Doll too, but I want the wider selection of direct I think.... I'm very excited to hopefully expand my kitty legion!
Dearmine is one of the quicker companies, they often complete orders within 3 months. Unless you have your eye on a time limited doll right now, I would suggest waiting as likely it'll be ready to ship in the middle of moving and that would be a hassle to make remember to get it sent to the right address. I don't know how complicated your move will be but my experience is there's so much to think of and do, you don't want to add another thing to keep track of
You make a really good point!! And knowing it's not a 9 month wait time... I'll definitely just wait til I'm moved. Esp because I'm moving across country, haha. My envious heart almost got the better of me.
Sounds like a good plan! Just remember to update your paypal postal address before you order, it's an easy thing to forget to do
I have a question about the Dear Child compared to Dear Pet. Does anyone have both? Photo comparison would be lovely. I have two DP's but no DC. I'd love to see a Dearmine lineup sometime
That's so awesome, scripple! Thank you so much for showing me your collection. The DC is considerably larger than DP. What kind of clothes have you been able to find to fit them?
I ordered some random 1/6 clothes from Alice's Collections and they fit fine. They're a much more "standard" size than the DP so I think in general it'll be easier to find clothes that fit them. Here's Marie in some of those clothes as an example of the fit. Sweet
She has very pretty hands. I wish I hadn't sold all my 1/6 kids now! I do love Alice's Collection things.
Dearmine dropped concept sketches for Summer dolls! LUPIN IS BACK. I hope I love their set; I've been waiting for a Lupin for so long! Any color but black, I hope... I'm so sad I missed the chance at the moth-themed milk tea Lupin set.
Aaaaa the dearmine Pets are so good. I'm curious, do you think it's possible to get one of the heads by itself? Or is it better (or possible) to just find one secondhand? I love Loc/Marie's head sculpt, but I'm trying to build a mouse, and mouse BJDs are rare and specific. Loc/Marie's head is the perfect shape. Either way, I'm gonna be shopping for a Dearmine next, I think.
Hello there! I want to share you my little lamb - Abby ^_^ Near train station have so beautiful wildflowers that I just have to take a photo of her.
