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.

DiM (Doll in Mind) Mini Discussion Part 5

Nov 17, 2016

    1. I'm willing to buy one upfront for you if I make the insane, ridiculous purchase I'm considering making. I am in the US, though.
       
    2. Oh, that's so nice of you, but I'm afraid the delivery is too much (I'm not aware of the actual cost though). I would wait for someone from the EU, but thank you anyway!

    3. No problem, totally understand! Good luck.
       
    4. Morning guys! I’m still totally nervous and excited! I ordered all three 1/4th heads and a Leonora too. I have my fingers crossed for her but I don’t think that it’s likely that we’ll get her. I’m kind of reconsidering if I should order one of the other vampire girls :doh

    5. Denny has not completed the counts yet. My GO was invoiced, but I asked Denny to hold off until he knows whether other sculpts will be made.

    6. After sending Denny an email with the preliminary head count for the US GO he emailed back and regarding the wishlist sculpts, this was what he said:

      "The rest of small orders are put in my list, I am gathering interest orders from customers, once they are reach to 25pcs, I will email you for sure"

      I emailed back asking for clarity on this part. If this means he will continue to gather orders for the other heads past the 31st, I think that's great for everyone who wanted them, but my inexperience with GOs and all the uncertainty is making me feel nervous. I don't know if I feel comfortable taking this on past the 31st and continuing to try to figure out what's going to happen with the extra sculpts. I think maybe I'm just feeling a little frazzled. I feel better knowing there is certainty for the main 3 sculpts at least - that's what Denny said in his email as well.

      Apologies for my anxiety!

    7. So I took a little bit into my own hands to save you stress here, at least with Annabeth (I guess she's my crusade now). I emailed him asking about her count to see if it's a number I'm comfortable just paying off.

      The lack of clarity was exhausting me and we're getting down to the wire, so I decided not to play telephone and go for it.

    8. I appreciate it. I think I ask very direct questions, but Denny can be very vague in responses sometimes.

    9. I completely believe you do, and your communication with me/our GO has been great.

      I think it's partially Denny being vague and also the sheer amount of information being exchanged with GOs. All the variables mean this isn't an ordinary GO, either, so you're playing hard mode.

    10. Same here. Haven't felt so nervous about getting a doll (head) in a while!
       
    11. I've been considering, but I've gone ahead and let him know I would be able to get at least one Annabeth if it comes available.
       
    12. Hi, I am willing to get one extra Annabeth for you. I am in Spain.
       
    13. I'll let y'all know what I hear back from him, and we can all go from there. I'm grateful that there are other people who want this silly head as much as I do.

      But I am really gonna need to ditch the internet for a month after this is over. This is practically election night stress.

    14. HI, that would be awesome! If you are OK with me being able to pay only at some time in autumn :)
       
    15. @staghaus @Dew_Drops Thanks both! I think I am feeling a bit less tense than you bothfor now, mostly because I am extremely busy IRL (just been working 12 hour shifts three days in a row over the weekend), so it’s easier for me to wait for that 31st date. (gotta earn me that DiM money haha!)

      With Denny invoicing for my order (though agreeing to hold off until he knows sculpt numbers), I feel safe that the order is at least “in”.

      With that said though, some clarity would be awesome. A lot of folk want Annabeth, and OE Laia is pretty popular too. I’ll be interested to hear what you hear back!

    16. I’m hoping all us Annabeth wanters will be Annabeth havers :D

      really curious to know what other heads have made the cut or close to. I’m hoping at least 1 SD sized head :blush

    17. I am hoping for Trisha even though I know the chances are low...

    18. I don't think any of mine are going to go ahead as it was very obscure asks that I don't think many people care for sadly. I was really hoping to get Bellosse and Kassia.

      I might ask if I can get a WS Laia (the confirmed one) and add a WS Annabeth though.

    19. I just heard back from Denny about Annabeth, but I'm still not confident we're going to make it to 25 :( He said, as of 5 minutes ago:

    20. I know there's a few Russian collectors who ran group orders (I was part of a few previously for DIM heads) as they have fairly popular IG accounts, and I think they could have helped get more, but obviously with the situation as it is that's not possible. :(
