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.

    2. Ok, I have an update and good news- today I got the answer from them, after a month of waiting.
      It looks like all heads are still available separately for $90.
      But their reply is so short and chaotic, and it doesn’t answer all my questions, so now I have no idea how to make a purchase for something that isn’t listed separately on their website and I can’t buy it “traditionally” by registration and check out. Am I supposed to order it by e-mail? And then wait another 30 days for next DR reply?

      I can see why there aren’t any international dealers for them, the communication with DR is horrible. I really wanted to get a head or two, but now I’m unsure… When I think about making a payment and not getting confirmation they received it, and all the stress this transaction may cause, should I take the risk?
      Please tell me if you get more detailed information how they handle recent orders.

    3. Well till I trust my dealer more Id probaly order the heads through her, unless Dream Realm impove their communication, I think it might cost the same, till for Chinese inland the goods are normally much cheaper price as when exported.


      For now Im just too broke but Im also to scarried they would dissaper so the next time I have money I should order Xiao Chi and Wu Hen heads.

    5. Nice to have the Taobao dealer link. I think I'll order the head I want soon too. I love these guys and would hate to lose out getting one.

    6. $abbatha: Sadly no :(,

      Lyn (Taobao dealer) also said, she is NOT Dream Realm dealer directly "And I want to remind you that I am not a dealer of this company so in case if anything happens , I may not be able help you well ><"

      Thats also what she said: I have experience dealing with DR before , and I can only tell you that their bad response is not deal to language barrier...
      Anyway one month for a reply mail is just far too slow!! If that occur again, feel free to ask me for help, that's very simple for me :)
      And its quality .....um , it is great that you already knew that, so you won't be disappointed XP

      So well now it looks like its on you to take a plunge an order this extraordinary heads/doll and may recieve bad quality items or well not to order and to wait on something similar.

      Well the heads might be ok, I only heard that the eyewells were very thin, but that can be easy repared from the inside with putty or smth.

      I also seen enough people who were happy with their full dolls/bodies.

      So as for me personally I would give a try! (maybe order 1 head abd then the second one if anything was ok.)

      ETA: I dont know if its not against the DOA rules to post the link of DOA Taobao dealer here, so Ill go ask admin now :sweat

    16. Arrrgh, I was just going to buy myself Xiao Chi today (I was waiting until another doll had arrived in the mail)... And their website is down. Hopefully it'll be up again soon, I can't wait to get him.

      Edit: And they're back up now :D Just out of curiosity, how long do they usually take to make/ship a doll? I'm assuming the usual 30 to 40 days.
       
      #316 Shae, Apr 28, 2011
    17. I've been wanting to buy a Xiao Chi head as well, and their site is down again for me. :c

      And JunkySpot only carry the full dolls, is there any way to just order a head from them?
       
      #317 Charsier, May 11, 2011
    18. I have no idea whether JunkySpot would let you order just the heads, but the Dream Realm website is up again now (it seems to be like a yo-yo, up and down frequently)
       
      #318 Shae, May 12, 2011
    19. It hasn't come up at all for me... has anyone ordered directly from their site recently and got anything?
