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 in love with a doll and it's unavailability

Jul 9, 2014

    1. I absolutely love Volks Luna, but seriously cannot afford it.
      I'm not sure how I got over it though. I think as time passes, your passion might die a little.
       
    2. A Feeple60 BW Roke, probably on a f60 modded girl body or a f60 modded moe body. However, since Fairyland hasn't sold the f60's for awhile and secondhand prices for FL dolls is a little ridiculous, my boy will have to wait awhile.
       
    3. Yeah, happens a lot with the monthly dolls and the fullset minifees because I need to save up a lot so by the time I can actually afford them they are gone... Ah, White Rabbit, why did you have to sell so fast?
       
    4. Yes! I didn't find out about Soom's Taco til way after they stopped making him. His little dragon feet!
       
    5. I forgot!
      It also has the Booth head of Nabarro.
      (I sold the mine ...)
       
    6. I'm used to disappointment so there's that.
      I don't just give up and call it a day though. I usually see the doll I like on the 2nd hand market if I spend a few minutes looking for it.
       
    7. This has happened to me, but thankfully not as often as I feared it might. Maybe it's because I tend not to even click on listings that I see are sold out, or check out those limited edition spreads. What the eyes don't see the heart don't yearn after, right? :P
       
    8. Oh yes i have experienced this and I guess it wont be the only time. The first sculpt i fell in love with was the juri 08 sculpt. i loved the shape of the eyes and the lips. They are like gold dust to find. I would love it if they brought back the sculpt but its unlikely. I plan on buying my first doll really soon.
       
    9. I fell in love with Withdoll Elf Hunter Ruby after I found out she was limited and sold out, but luckily I managed to snag one secondhand :')
       
    10. I got into the hobby really, really late. Like maybe early this year? So I missed out on a lot of sculpts. I love a lot of the dolls and lucky for me, most of the ones I like are not limited edition. However, one sculpt that I fell hard for was the Esthy Peroth doll and he's gorgeous! Too bad the artist isn't making him anytime soon. I also recently became interested in Lati dolls and I'm so sad that most are sold out. I don't have an idea on how to cope with it either. D:
       
    11. I fell in love with SOOM's Ender Dream Walker 2 months after the sale ended. He is everything I needed in a doll for my character Lucifer. D': I love the doll I have now for him but Ender was just...perfect. So perfect. I've been stalking the marketplace for a listing for him [or just his head] but so far nothing. :'(
       
    12. I'm being paranoid, but I've only just started saving up for my second doll, and I really want to get crobidoll's Keith. Even though he's new, I'm really worried that he'll get sold out soon and I won't have a chance anymore. If that really happens I can only blame myself for falling in love (within a month of getting my first doll!)

      Probably continue saving up and hoping I'll catch the next doll that I really like.... Sigh.
       
    13. Keith isn't a limited edition, so he shouldn't sell out. :) You should be fine! He'll probably be on the site for a long time to come!
       
    14. Wow, I was looking through the site out of curiosity and automatically fell in love with Tohya (dolpha 12 version), and I usually only like anthros or tiny. It's probably impossible, although I do know now if I ever want a human doll I'd go for something similar to him. I'm actually glad he's not a tiny doll though because otherwise I would be pretty sad about it.
       
    15. I'm in love with mia's babylamb for several years, but it is hard to get! I have missed some during these years but I don't want to give up it!
       
    16. I've fallen. But good thing is! HE'S COMING BACK FOR EASTER EVENT!! (Yes, it's our dear JACK THE RIPPER)
       
    17. I understand this completely x.x I fall for very handsome boy dolls that all tend to be out of stock XD Such as the Limited Edition Crow from Soom.
       
    18. I'm absolutely enchanted by Feeple60 Chloe and it killed me to see that she's sold out even a la carte... I've thought about going for a Minifee Chloe instead, but from what I hear a lot, it's not really good to settle with another doll just because your dream doll is unavailable.
       
    19. [MENTION=69479]MarryH[/MENTION] I will definitely back up the 'don't settle' crowd. If you want a Feeple60 Chloe, that's what you should get. :)
      Don't worry about her being sold out, it's just temporary! If you keep checking back they will do a Feeple60 release soon enough and you can get her. ^^ It's just hard for FL to make the Feeple dolls for whatever reason, so they only do them in batches.
       
    20. [MENTION=19137]Tayma-Leigh[/MENTION] Really?:o The regular or moe line? Because I understood that since there was a moe line there would be no more of the regular kind, since all the never owners seem to have the moe line.

      If they do this I am sooooooo going to try saving up extra hard for it and not settle for anything less!
