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 you get jealous when someone buys your type of doll?

Jul 24, 2005

    1. Nope, not really. I love looking in the Beryl database and seeing everything that people have done with her.

      Besides... There's only one Jay Say.
       
    2. right now im jealous of the people that have the dolls i want. but its more of a "your so lucky, i wish i had that" kind of jealous not the upset and angry type.

      and once i get mine i wont be jealous at all because i dont expect anyones to be exactly like mine
       
    3. I know what you mean. I saw someone selling a Narsha doll... and if I had the money I'd have saved her! haha
       
    4. Nah, I don`t mind.
      I love seeing what other people do with them. :3

      I think the only time I`d be annoyed is if someone I knew in real got one.
      Just because I`d be like "But I have that one, couldn`t you get another? ]:" haha
       
    5. It seems like the ones I'm most attracted to are some really popular ones (which is kind of opposite of how things normally go for me) so my answer to the original question is no. I'm new enough that I'm the one doing the buying, though, not the one getting jealous.
       
    6. No I really dont think anything about it at all in fact I get curious to find out if they have done something different to their doll.

      You can have the same doll but owners customiize their dolsl somuhc sometimes you cant even tell they are the same head mold.
       
    7. I know what you mean!

      I've been obsessing about finding a Shiwoo head for Ryuichi-doll, and every time I see one or hear about someone buying a Shiwoo, I'm like :...(

      But, I'm also happy for them as well, so don't get me wrong!

      But, a bit back, in the marketplace a few people were selling Shiwoo, and I was like :( I need a NS type 2 head...these aren't what I need!

      But now, things are improving, and I'm not so jealous anymore...kinda:sweat

      Ryuichi
       
    8. Not really...
      I feel kinda relief when someone else bought my type of doll...
      At least my doll is loved by others^^
       
    9. I love seeing other dolls of the same sculpt!

      Though sometimes if it's a doll I don't have yet I think "aww, lucky!" but I'm still happy for them despite my touch of envy XD It usually makes me save more enthusiastically, actually :)
       
    10. I love seeing what other people did with the same doll.
      like diferant styles.
       
    11. Not at all. I love seeing what other people have done with some of my favorite sculpts. It's interesting to see how different they can be
       
    12. I might be a little jealous if it was the only one of its kind and someone outbid me for it at the last minute. But if there's more than one out there then no, I don't mind at all. I think it's great and love seeing all the different variations of the same doll that I also like.
       
    13. Not really, in fact I love to see Yuus around! :)
       
    14. How could I be jealous, I'm excited when I hear another person owns an AoD Chi considering his mold doesn't get enough love. When someone owns the same doll, I think it's interesting to find out how different they are from my dolls even though they are the same doll. The more pictures I see from someone else who owns the same dollas me is like, YEA, another person owns so and so!
       
    15. I definitely get jealous, but not in an angry "You don't have a right" sort of way, just "Oh man I wish...."

      Like right now I'm sooo jealous of everyone who was able to order a Soom Vesuvia.
       
    16. Um... no, getting upset over the doll someone else buys just because you want it is ridiculous and a waste of energy in my opinion. You should be glad they had the good fortune to get said doll ;)
       
    17. no because i get to see what they really look like with other clothes and wigs, and i get to see every angle of the doll with their pictures.
       
    18. Nope, infact I think i am the only person who has an open eyed, modded elf ducan on here anyway, haha
       
    19. I like seeing other people's interpretations of dolls that I also have.

      It's also useful when you're buying a new doll to see other examples. I'm trying to decide which to buy out of a few dolls at the moment, but they are all unpopular so there are very few owner pictures and I can't tell which I should get.

      Having said that, I have been a bit creeped out when other people have kitted their dolls out in a similar way to mine. There was someone in particular who commented on a particular doll of mine in the gallery and then styled their own of the same mold in the same sort of way. That was just WEIRD. Maybe it was just coincidence. I guess it applies in cases where you think you've come up with a completely different look for a particular mold.
       
    20. Sometimes I get jealous when I see some one with the same doll as me, but only when it looks so much more stunning and beautiful than mine could ever become.

      But usually they are just another doll, though some times the dolls I already have will catch my eye a bit more.
