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.

Do/Did you keep your very first doll? Or will you sell it?

Aug 12, 2009

    1. I sold my first doll not too long ago... I miss her but her new owner and I keep in touch so it's not so bad :') plus I have my new doll to keep me company!
       
    2. :|Well, yes, I still have him..... but I don't know if I'll keep him forever. I hate to say it, but I just don't love him as much as some of my other dolls.
       
    3. Yes, I still have her, and I could never sell her! She's my favorite doll from my collection, and she is really special for me. She is very yellow and got some stains from clothes and so, but it's fine - I still love her to bits (:
       
    4. I will probably always keep mine. She is special to me, even though she isn't my favorite (don't let her hear me say that!).
       
    5. My first (and currently only) doll was my dream doll for many years, I was just recently able to get her and would never even consider getting rid of her under any circumstances. No matter how scratched, beat up, yellowed or imperfect she may become over the years I will always love her and she'll always be with me ^^
       
    6. My first doll was only a head and is still with me. I haven't had him for even a year yet but I don't see myself selling him any time soon~
       
    7. I've had Reika since 2009, and it really doesn't feel like that long ago. I know at some point, I was tight on money and almost put her on the MP, but I just couldn't bring myself to! Ive grown quite attached to her and she's always been there to cheer me up.
       
    8. My fairy Goddess will stay with me forever and ever! Love her too much :D
       
    9. I will always be keeping my boy that I'm waiting for, he's not here but I love him to pieces already. His character is embodied in that doll which makes him so special. Even if he goes yellow and is dinged up I will never get rid of him.
       
    10. The first doll I used to have is a Barbie- the Flower Surprise ... But I couldn't keep her because my parents decided to give her to my nieces ... And my nieces kept kissing the doll's face and made it dirty ! OMG,I don't know if I have a BJD,will my parents ask me to give it to my nieces again ?
      --------------
      Sr for my bad English T_T
       
    11. I still have mine since 2007 and I just can't seem to let him go. I tried to a few times but he's extremely stubborn. I am really excited to change him up though and fall head over heels in love with him again. I think if I let him go I would truly regret it.
       
    12. Oh god I could never imagine letting her go!
      I was at a meet once and someone offhandedly told me if I ever wanted to sell her that they would love her and I cringed at the thought!
       
    13. I'm a sap when it comes to that sorta sentimental stuff. So i don't think I could ever get rid of my Volks MSD Sakura.
       
    14. Whenever someone brings up selling my dolls I kind of get a little nauseous. I'm emotionally attached now which means I won't be selling them. The same reason I still have my stuffed animals and toys . Tsume and Kietta hold a special place in my heart.
       
    15. I still have my first doll's head rollin around, but I'm going to sell that too... I simply realized that he was way too big for me. (Super Senior Delf) I could still keep him, sure, but I'd feel bad for never doing anything with the poor guy. His character will be with me forever though, even if the doll changes. ;u;
       
    16. I know I will. Because my first doll is the begining memories and start of this hobby. I honestly think I can never part with her.
       
    17. I can't imagine letting go of my first doll. She's the main character in the story all my other dolls are a part of, so without her my collection would be missing a huge piece of itself!
       
    18. I've bought and sold a fair few dolls over the years for various reasons, but I still have my first one (named Rin). I'd probably only sell her if I gave the hobby up entirely some day. There's just something about the one gal that made the difference between having no interest in dolls and being willing to pay the cost of one for the first time.
       
    19. I could never get rid of any of my dolls!! I love my first doll just as much as I love my newest!
       
    20. I love my first girl, but I finally got a resin a few months back and I'm a little obsessed with her. (My first was a 48cm Obitsu) I briefly considered selling her, because she just wasn't fitting in with what I wanted my collection to be anymore, but honestly I just can't see myself getting rid of her.
