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.

    4. They ship overseas :? I really love Suzana :D :D
       
      #4 Flonne, May 6, 2005
    5. Doll and Hobby is only allowed to ship to North America...

      also, everyone, keep in mind that this is a lottery, and even if you order, you may or may not get your doll!

      Goodluck everyone!!

    6. The e-mail came just in time. I was going to give in and buy on ebay, and that would be the end of my doll budget for years. But one more check of my e-mails and it was the pre-order! pre-ordered Liz and Suzanna, happy dance here, hoping that they get enough in for all of our pre-orders - Barb in MA

    10. I thought only the Kyoto dolls were done as a lottery?

      Gahh.. this is nervewracking. :barf

      *off to stalk Y!J again*

    11. blastmilk just said that you're right, that the kyoto ones are lottery, and the others are first come first serve.

      fyi, on the furniture, it is pricey but extremely well made. I dont regret the sofa I got last time

      Liz- if someone would be interested in buying Liz, I'd be interested in buying her body from you, so please keep me in mind!
       
      #11 aimee, May 6, 2005
    12. yep... when I talked to them it was only Kyoto dolls that are a lottery. Yeah for pre-ordering! Now I just hope they get enough for everyone!!!! I love LEs and hate them at the same time. I really wish everyone could get what they wanted.

    13. Well I just placed my order with them, aparently they don't know how many dolls are they going to get. So......

      The lady said they can receive the dolls from 2 weeks to 2 months, and sometimes they can order 20 and volks will only send then 4, so she said she could not guarantee anything.
      She also said that Liz been the most popular so far.....

      They are about 5 hours from me, but I rather get the stuff ship to me.
      I hope they get plenty for everyone so we don't have to pay the high prices on ebay
      Good Luck to everyone!!!!

    14. I'd be very wary of ordering Ushiwakamaru from here. Only cause he was a DP13 only doll and it's specifically stated that he's not for the after party. I remember with the Kimono Madoka D&H originally said they could take orders for her, but it turned out they couldn't...she was a Dolpa only doll. But who knows, maybe they can get him.

      Liz is tempting me, but I think I can resist.

    15. Connie thanks for the link!

      I really like that chair but I've seen a really nice one in that style for $40. Perhaps if I had $275 to spend on a chair... :wink:

    16. I don't think they're selling Ushiwakamaru the doll... just his accessories.
       
      #16 krambear, May 6, 2005
    17. His accessories only? That's odd. Oh well, it is a nice outfit maybe I'll grab it. Though if they're going to do that with him, I wish they'd do it with the others. Liz's outfit is really cute and even if I don't get her I'd like to grab it.

    18. Mary Ann said I was the first caller!!!

      If they can get, pleeeeeassse, get one little Liz, I will be so incredibly happy!

    20. well, D&H is closed now right?

      I called and got the answering machine...?


      Ushiwakamaru 's isn't his whole outfit, it's just a special extra accessories thing that includes special hands and a bow. here's what it is:
