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.

Falling for Tiny Elfdoll Dodo all over again...

Oct 28, 2007

Page 4 of 12
    1. So sorry to hear about your kitty, TinyBear... ;(
      I am glad that you are able to get DODO again!

      I ordered her also, and she will be my first TINY ELFDOLL with magnetic hands/feet!!

      I love that they kept her original outfit, and I hope that she has the same brown wig??
      I know that they show and mention the 3 different wig colors chosen at random??
      He mentioned in the sales page that he could not get the same fabric to re-create her
      famous FUR WIG.

      Also... {{dreaming here}}... since Rainman finally was able to do DODO for us... maybe, just MAYBE... "wouln't it be loverly" if he made GGONZI in the future also!!!
      Now... I can start pining away for her !! LOL!!!

    2. I'm contemplating getting one even though I have no other dolls in this scale unless you count my Puki lol

    3. I asked ED if Dodo will be released again, but they said they have no plans for it at this time. They suggested I buy her on layaway, which I did. I would dearly love to have Ggonzi one day, but if he ever makes any, I hope it will be next year. I am totally tapped out for the remainder of the year, unless I happen to get a windfall and manage to pay my two layaways early. Grr. I'd be ok if I hadn't caved and bought a big Iplehouse guy. *sigh*

    4. I wrote Elfdoll to verify that they would take a layaway on her. They said they will. Which many of you know by now. lol
      I just wonder how they do that. Let's say I ordered the last day and put her on layaway. I might take up to 6 months to a year to pay her off. So they have to be ready to make one in a year from now for this layaway order? I thought it may be a problem for a limited, but I was assured that it is fine to put Dodo on layaway.
      Now if I could only come up with the $94 or so dollars needed... next to now! help! I need my Fashion Royalty doll to sell soon.

    5. Dollughtful, if you put a Dodo on layaway, she will be made during the same time as the other Dodos. She just won't come home to you until you pay her off. I have mine on a 6 month layaway, but I could have easily gone to 12 months. At 12 months, she is only ~$17 per month. 30% is only $84 for the first payment so at least you won't have to come up with the extra $10 right now. Of course I already had my Hana so Dodo is my only layaway. I understand that when you have a couple of layaways going, it can get hairy. Personally, I am glad Elfdoll is doing such great layaway terms, though. The only US shop that would do that is CADolls.

      Carrie, I didn't know you had to sell your Dodo. It must have been very upsetting to not only have to sell your dolls, but then having Maddie not make it. At least you know you did everything you could for her.

      Yes, Ggonzi!!!

    6. Thanks for the support gracie. You are so sweet. :aheartbea

      I do not know who Ggonzi is?
       
      #66 Dollightful, Apr 9, 2010
    7. I never signed up at the Elfdoll website, so I guess I can't order her even if I had the money (which I don't). :(

      Does anyone have photos of the new Dodo and her sleeping face?

    8. Ggonzi is one of Rainman's OOAK sculpts that he had on his blog, a redhaired beautiful tiny that never got released.

    10. Oh, she is so pretty. I wonder why he did not release her? Maybe he decided to keep her very, very limited for his family or something.

    16. OMG! I was just looking at my links on my LJ and decided, I haven't visited DOA in ages, and thought I'd drop in...
      After loggin in... I found 3 pms from beautiful people who all told me my dream doll was up on elfdoll!
      Yay!! I was soo thrilled... But I just about broke down and started crying-_-;

      Why you ask? cause, it is Sunday here on Guam and with only 2 days left to order her...I recently quit my job
      (a little over a month now), cause of the abuse I started getting when I was moved into a different position!
      No job = no money, right!

      but it must be fate cause...

      while I am jobless, I do still have my etsy store that sells some of my vintage doll collection and toy related items. So I am hopeful
      that some items will sell off soon, and I also found out that I can do a layaway for her thru elfdoll!

      I am telling you it is fate, and dodo is meant to be mine, after all this time. She will be home someday soon...
      this year!! I placed dodo on layaway and now feel soo relieved and ecstatic!!

      Lots of love to those who pmed me! Also, those of us who have either been waiting for her too or have just fallin
      for her! Dreams do come true!!

      hugs, gg

    17. I think Hana was the first, then Pukis.
       
      #77 clochette, Apr 11, 2010
    18. Hi, Clochette... I meant to say "first 14cm Elfdoll tiny"... with the changeable faceplates!!

      Teryl ;)
      ====================================

       
      #78 th1, Apr 11, 2010
    19. I am glad for you gg. I hear you about the struggle for money. I don't have enough to even put her on layaway. I may have to just order then use the 7 days to see if I can get the money by then....

      Wha?? Does Dodo have changeable face plates on her? You don't have to try to change the whole head??

      What is the last safe day you think you can order Dodo in the USA?
      Thanks.
       
      #79 Dollightful, Apr 12, 2010
    20. Thanks dear! I don't think its interchangeable faceplates, I think you do have to change the heads. Gosh,
      as for the safe day...I think elfdoll just goes by their time zone?? not sure? I do hope you are able to get her too^_~

      hugs, gg
