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.

    1. does anyone know when Sumika items will be on sale at the international site?^_^
       
    2. Any idea if the US volks distributor (not volks usa- i forgot her name ;_;) is going to be taking orders?
       
    3. We Love Dolls is taking orders, but not for the clothes (well, just taking orders for h.Naoto stuff I think) until 12/20 :)
       
    4. They have started a list for those interested. So you get on the list, then they see how many they can get and will let you know if they have enough for you.

    6. Sorry but the demand is so overwhelming I am going to end the order period for anyone's name to be entered on all Volks DP16 lists. The opportunity to add your name ends Wednesday Dec 13 at 5pm Central Standard Time.

      The lists are quite long and Kerbey Lane Doll Shoppe thanks everyone who has emailed. We fill our orders first come,first serve & we will not even be able to order any extra for the shop since so many want dolls and outfits.

      Volks is supposed to email quantities to me on Dec 20th so everyone not able to get a doll or outfit will still have time to enter the Japan Lottery.

      Happy Holidays & good luck to all!!

    7. Volks blog updated (thanks to Manami for the heads up!). Here's the text of the post in case the blog goes down --

       
    8. Volks has posted info about three "Special Memorial One-Off" versions of Amelia. Guess no one here will be laying hands on one of these three ladies, but it's good news if you want more pictures of Amelia. This isn't in the news thread, not sure if it's in the discussion . . . but I figured it should be here.

    9. Is there some sort of trick to getting to the lottery entry page? I have tried repeatedly and it won't load at all. Every other link in the Volks USA store appears to work fine but I can't figure out how to do a lottery entry. HELP! Clock is ticking.
