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. Ara* was in my layaway split for the rapiers from Iplehouse Bliss limited release. She was a joy to communicate with and paid very promptly, as agreed. She and another user Khell decided to have their items shipped to her and she let me know as soon as the package arrived. A very pleasant transaction, would love to do business with again!

    8. I commissioned Ara* to do a faceup and mod on a Granado head she had for sale. Excellent communication, confirmed payments, thoroughly went over faceup and mod details and kept me well informed on any progress or delays. She also answered my many questions quite thoroughly. I've dealt with Ara* before and recommend her most highly. It's been an absolute pleasure and I hope to work with you again soon! :D

    11. I bought a modded obitsu designer head from Ara. It was packaged well. The modding work is professional and finished. I cant tell it was sanded or worked on. The face up is very high quality too. Communication was prompt and courteous. I was updated on everything and given insurance. I would buy again from Ara. Thank you again.

    13. Positive feedback
      I was contacted by Ara about my WTB thread for a old dollzone body, Ara had one she was looking to rehome and after a few messages I bought the body from her.
      Ara shipped the body very quickly and though DHL took forever to deliver it (which was no fault of Ara's), The body did arrive in perfect condition, thanks to the excellent packaging job Ara did.
      I highly recommend Ara as a seller and would happily buy from her again:)
      Thank you so much Ara !
