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?

    1. I'm still rather new, but I don't think I can imagine selling my first doll. I imagine that over the years, there will just be too much sentiment attached to him for me to ever let him go!

    2. I could never sell my first! seeing his sad little face getting packed away permanently and shipped off would break my heart! I love him way too much, he's staying forever

    4. I've sold my first doll. First it was his head, then his body a year or so later. It was tough at first, because I felt like I should keep him for sentimental reasons. However, I'm glad I went with my instinct on pursuing a different aesthetic for his replacement. I really love how he looks now. :)

    5. I still have my first doll and probably always will.
      She was a present and I just couldn't imagine ever selling her.

    6. I can't sell her. I tried to post her for sale but took it down soon after. I would have regretted it. I doubt I would try again :)

    7. I got my first doll a few months ago, but I can already tell that there's no way I would ever part with her. She represents a milestone of sorts? Plus she's one of my favourite sculpts.

    9. I haven't sold mine yet, though I've considered it in the past (she was an impulse buy but I have grown to love her). Now, I have developed more of her personality, but I'm still not COMPLETELY bonded yet. I'm going to give her a chance, though. As long as her character's bond lasts with my second doll's, she is guaranteed a place in the family. If it turns out she has to move on someday, so be it. But for now she stays with me.

    10. YESSS!! :D It wasn't so long since I've started this hobby but I still keep my first doll and I don't think or plan to sell him in the future too. I have a feeling that my first doll is the most important and I like him the most because he is with me for so long. If I lose or sell him out, I'll definitely regret!

    12. Aw, that's so sweet ^^ I wish i had doll addicted bf, but he doesn't (

      My first BJD arrived in this year, although i'm not new in bjd world at all. I've waited her for 4 month, wanted her very much, and don't think that i will ever sell her, she became a part of my family and i love her very much :)

    13. It's hard for me to tell my really first doll from the others. I ordered three almost at a time, than, soon enough, was another one. From that company I could never say good bye to my Doll Chateau twins.

    14. I've kept mine. I wanted one for so long and was so excited to her get. I don't think I could part with her because of that :)

    16. I always thought I would but now I don't think I will. I only want SD sized dolls now. And my second doll has stolen my heart and all my money.

    17. I still have my Miro MSD's yes, but I must admit I've wavered a lot about keeping them, at least with their original heads. I like the bodies but I don't like the heads I got much. I have a big Wind so the little one just isn't really doing it for me anymore. The boy head, he's just never grown on me. I totally don't like him at all. They were actually never meant to be the permanent heads anyway, and I have used the female body for another head, but I just can't seem to find another male head I want, at least one that doesn't cost far more than the body did and that my wallet can afford.

      I put my Narae head on the Miro girl body after all so that Alba could have her RS body back. The Miro body has mellowed and darkened a bit since I got it and Narae is looking a lot better on it now than she did. I still want to try sanding her head some more too. I think it could get lighter yet but I got tired of sanding and stopped before I probably should have. She's got a couple of really light spots on her face that I think still might vanish if I just give it another go maybe.

      But the boy body still has the Miro head and it's just not working at all for me. I would love a Narin head for that body so that Narae could have her brother or some other similarly aged boy so she could have a BF but I just can't seem to get it together on that score. I have seriously thought about just trading him off for something else. I just know if I do that though that the perfect inexpensive head will appear the moment he's gone, laugh...

    18. My first doll was a head. I didn't think I'd ever get rid of my first doll. But, I actually couldn't bond with her. I knew she was just a head but I didn't like her as much as I thought I would. So, she is up for sale and is awaiting to find her new home as of right now. My second doll head that I have though, my Miu Amaha head, I don't think I'll ever get rid of her. (: She is a cutie, especially with her new face-up this is currently in process that I've seen some pictures of. ^^ But yes, I'm having to get rid of my first doll (head), sad to say it but it just didn't work out.

    19. i will never part with Raina.. she was my first doll and i was so exited when i got her.. i love her to bits and she will always stay with me.
       
      #819 Shines, Aug 3, 2014
    20. Yes, and I'm super glad I did. I had an impulse to sell him a few years back but I decided to get him a new faceup first and that changed things around. :D Although I don't always play with him, I do feel quite nostalgic when I take him out to photograph/change his clothes, and I don't think I'll ever sell him ^^
