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.

Severe ongoing issues and concerns with Dollshe Dollshe Ban

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

    1. My first doll is my only doll currently! I've thought about whether I would or wouldn't sell her, and I actually might at some point. Since my interest is mostly in customizing and creating the look of a doll (I'd MUCH rather get a completely blank and naked doll than a fullset) I think I'd be ok to sell a completed doll if someone was interested in her and had a perfect character in mind. It would be nice to think that someone could attribute their creativity to her and love her as a character!

    2. I've had my first doll for 10 years or so. I could never sell her. She's a 60cm Obitsu with a Haruka head. Akio sat in a box for a very long time. I was terrified to do anything to her. But a few years ago i got brave. Drug her out. Watched so many youtube videos on how to do face ups. A friend made a wig for me. And she's my baby.

    5. I've been thinking about selling my first doll a lot the past two years (hence him not being in my signature), but I very recently realized one reason I was drifting further from him because the improvements I want to make to him are always hindered by lack of resources or me listening to my mother say he's fine as he is. I plan for him to be around for his 6th anniversary, freshly sanded, painted, restrung, and the works.

    6. I haven't sold my first doll, my pukisha. He's too close to my heart, and he's too cute to let go! ><

    7. No, I could never sell them. They're just too cute and settled in.

    9. When my first one just arrived, with company's makeup, eyes and wig, I didnt like him and thought I should sell him right away. But after I changed his outlook it was just another guy, friendly, beautiful and cunning, and suddenly he got such a personality:) I got used to him very much, I think I will never sell him.

    10. Nope. Long, long gone. Was one of the old Iplehouse YID girls. Idiotically purchased on impulse during my equally idiotic teenage years. :doh

    11. Still have my first, a 5stardoll Edmund. :3 I've been sort of drifting away from him lately as far as attachment goes, though. I dunno, I think he's a little too big for me as an SD, and although I like his grumpy character he doesn't make me feel super happy. :c I've been thinking about what to do with him a lot lately so we'll see.

    12. I didn't sell my first doll *yet*. I did sell all others dolls I ever owned, because I just wasn't able to really bond with them. My first doll IS up for sale now though. Still looking for the perfect doll for me ;).

    13. I still have mine~~ She was my Christmas gift from a friend :) I love her to death~~

    14. No, I don't see myself ever selling my first doll, but not because she's my first doll or for any sentimental reasons... just because I'm not one for selling my belongings in general. For that reason I very much doubt I will ever sell any of my dolls. I don't have that many and don't plan to amass a super huge collection; I'm very particular about what I acquire, but what I buy, I keep. It's just how I am.

    15. I've recently sold mine. There was a bit of umming and ahhing but at the end of the day I sold her and was able to buy a doll I know will see much more daylight and a lot less of the inside of a box! I'm usually someone who gets attached easily so I was pleased I was able to do it.

    16. I've tossed around the idea of selling my first doll, but I don't think I really could that easily. She is a sculpt that is no longer even made by Soom, and an older one at that. I also love her expression and face-up...I just need to get up the guts to do more with her. Though I have been around ABJDs for over a year now and am more comfortable with them, I am still a little nervous about doing much with them. >.>;;;

    17. I still have my first doll and I don't think I'll never sell her ! :'D
      She is almost 6 years old and has yellowed quite a lot, but still she's very dear to me. <3

    18. I love my first doll more than anything, and she gets so unbelievably spoiled because of that. I could never, ever sell her.
      That being said, I don't think I could sell any of my dolls... I'd feel so guilty.

    19. I could never sell Ian. He's the one who started it all! :aheartbea

    20. I have it, and I don't think I will sell him. It is a Love Doll Brian, I might modify him at some point to fit my never ending changes in taste.
