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.

    3. * What did you order?
      A 7 year old girl body and Arin head in paleskin.

      * When did you order?
      Ordered 2009-03-05.

      * Did you order directly from the company, or through a distributor or dealer?
      I ordered directly from DT.

      * How was the communication?
      Excellent. A couple of messages were generic responses that were copied/pasted, but that's to be expected and didn't spill over into problem resolution portions of the communication.

      * How easy was it to pay?
      This is where it gets tricky. I initially tried to pay with a wire transfer and after a week or so of it not being received I checked with my bank and found out that they had switched the phone number and account number when typing it into their computer and had lost my money somewhere in Korea. Anjonghak of DollsTown was of immense help in trying to get this fixed, and contacted her bank in Korea several times over the following week to help figure things out, and was always quick to respond to my questions and updates. We eventually arranged with her bank to have the wire transfer sent back and I ended up setting up a paypal account and paying with that instead since I didn't want to give my bank a second chance to have a finger fumble. With all the drama, I ended up actually paying on 03-27.

      * How long did it take to ship?
      The doll shipped on 03-29 (very quickly, since it was stated it could take a week) and arrived 04-02, so roughly 3 to 4 days for shipping.

      * Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion?
      The doll's quality is very good, and the price definately reflects that, so I'd say it is appropriate pricing for what you get.

      * Did the item look like the sales pictures?
      This is one of the things I like about DollsTown, they are definately not afraid to show off their dolls. They had a huge number of sales pictures of the doll and the out-of-the-box appearance was accurately reflected. I will note that some of the poses they show the doll in are possibly unrealistic without wiring/sueding/stands..

      * Were you satisfied with the product?
      Very satisfied.

      * If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem?
      I was satisfied, but it's worth mentioning that with the stress of going back and forth to my bank trying to resolve the aforementioned payment fiasco, it could easily have soured my feelings towards the whole matter if DollsTown hadn't been so supportive throughout, so they worked to make sure that satisfaction was there.

      * Would you order from this company again?
      I was very pleased with the doll and the service, and I will definately consider them if I ever decide I need another doll.


      One more quick thing to mention. DollsTown packages the dolls ridiculously well, with bubblewrap filling the entire box that isn't already occupied by doll/pillows/etc. They even wrapped bubblewrap around some strips of velcro tape they sent along and a big blob of it around the eye putty (which I almost didn't find since I thought it was just bubblewrap with nothing in it).
       
    4. I ordered a Dollstown Elf body from Dollstown. The communication was excellent. Payment was easy via Paypal. And shipping time was very quick and as promised. The body is beautiful and poses like a dream. And the box was stuffed full of bubble wrap. They even sent some eye puttee and wig velcro.:)
      I wish every doll company was this good.:)
      I will definitely be ordering again from Dollstown.
