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.

Have you made provisions for your dolls if you die?

May 15, 2005

    1. I shall pass my dollies down to my children, and then when they die, they'll give it down to their children! 8DDD Like a tradition! xDD
       
    2. Unless my mother really wanted him, Xan and any other doll I aquired would go to the person who got me into the hobby. They'd be loved, they'd have company with her dolls, and I'd trust her to take care of them.
       
    3. Tyrantlizard gets all of mine...regardless of how many I have. (lol)
      If that doesnt work out (like, if she dies first) my mom and sister (biological sister) get them (and they get to divide them between themselves as they see fit). Under NO circumstances WHATSOEVER does my sorta stepsister ANYTHING!!!
      I'd rather have them sold, or smashed...won't even let her TOUCH them...
       
    4. If and when I have kids, they'll stay in the family maybe?
      But I also think it would be nice to give them to friends... I might think about this more, and plan to leave one to each of my dearest friends, if anything horrible were to happen.
      Never really thought about this, but it makes sense to think about. Dolls are pricy and special, and letting them go unaccounted for would be such a waste, when they are so beautiful and could be well-loved by someone.
       
    5. minw will be laced in a vacumpaked time caupsle to open 5000 years from now also inclued will be ALL of the artemis Fowl books/fanfic ever written, plus sunchips yum!
       
    6. Unless it is a very sudden death I plan to give my dolls to the people who are to receive them after I die. I have two grandaughters who will each get one or two and my daughter who will be the keeper of the rest One or too will be passed. on to friends. I have my mother's doll and she will also stay in the family. Now, if there is not enough money to buried/cremate me. Some may be sold. I don't see why my dolls should die just because I have. I would like them to be enjoyed and loved. This became an issue this week when I became hospitalized with double pneumonia. Thank goodness for antibiotics.
       
    7. I'd probably pass it down generation after generation, I dunno. I think it'd be too selfish for me to take my dolls with me, so I'll have my kids, grandkids, etc. keep my dolls, whether to play, dress, take photos of, or just keep them as a memento of me.

      (lol yes, I expect to live a long life...^^')
       
    8. i know this sound strange..
      but i will probebly let myself be cremated and let them burry my ashes inside my dolls body
      or atleast a part of it...but they are allowed to use all my organs they can ..so there will not be a lot left of me >_<...
      It will probebly be inside of my Shushu..

      My other dolls will probebly go to..at the moment my little chinees friend.
      She isn't allowed to have any dolls -to expencive-

      If i die like..way later.. i will probebly nominate one of my..grandkids..if i ever get any XD
      I'm not sure how my grandkids will be right now.. with my violent personality..and the jumpy personality the guys i randomly fall for have.. doll will probebly be a bad combination..
      but we will see o_o"
       
    9. I don't plan on dieing anytime soon so no I've not made any plans for where they'll go if I should die. My parents and/or my boyfriend will probably handle that if I were to suffer some unfortunate sudden death. Perhaps they'd ask my friends if they'd like them, keep them themselves (they're not overly fond of my dolls but they know they mean enough to me), or maybe they'd sell them on ebay. *shrugs* Who knows?

      For now my plans just include enjoying my dolls and thinking of what to do with them when I move out and start my own family in the future.
       
    10. nevermind >>;
       
    11. If I were to die...

      my BJDs will become part of a doll museum erected in my honor or my mom will burn them all since she hates them so.
       
    12. Mine are going with me u_u;;;

      With a bunch of my other things xD I have to get papers wrote up but my best friend knows my exact plans XDD
       
    13. lawl I actually thougth about this XD i'd hope my mom and dad would keep them to like 'keep me around' or something. But i'm actually not sure... I'd like to pass them down or something give them to my kids if they really wanted them...but that'd depend if they would take care of them. BUT....actually..I'd probably take Macbee with me if I was allowed to XD He'll always be my baby ^^

      THEN in all actuality... I would probably take them with me :3
       
    14. I have never thought of this o_O;; but I want my doll to be passed to my family member or friend in stead of buried/cremated with me /_\
       
    15. Depending on how many I have I would like my torrie to go to my Sister since she really likes the animae. If she or my mother doesn't want her I would rather she be sold to a abjd collector so that she will be loved. Then the money she would sell for could be spent on my loved ones.
       
    16. My dolls will be handed down to family members with a request they remain among the family heirlooms I've detailed in my will, to be kept in the family generation after generation.
       
    17. Huntyre, my precious baby boy Chiwoo will stay with my mom.... because she's already lost 5 children during her lifetime... so if I die as well, I want her to have my doll....

      It's not alot.. but it's something.

      Josiphe will go to whichever of my friends wants him most.... and if I have others, they'll be split up between my friends as well.
       
    18. Nano will go to my grandmother, as she is the one who bought him for me and she loves and collects dolls. So I know he'd be treasured with her. If she's not around, he'd go to my sister. She's getting her first bjd soon and I think she'd take care of him. :)

      Momo would go to my boyfriend, even if we're not together when I die. He loves momo almost as much as I do.

      ... but then what happens when THEY die...? :?
       
    19. Wow, what a good question! Um, well I don't have any children at the moment, but I plan to adopt in 5 years. If I have a child that would love the dolls as much as I do, I would leave them to him or her. If not, I would leave them to my niece if she wants them. And if that doesn't work out, I dunno. I'd hate to bury them with me. The thought of them buried underground seems sad. Well, at least then, there's no chance of some grubby handed person with no appreciation from them getting their hands on them generations later.
       
    20. I've pretty much accepted that I could die at any time (kinda brought it home when my dad died, you never know whats gonna happen), if I where to go any time soon I'd hope my mum would keep maybe one of the dolls and sell the others, she knows how much they're worth and I'd want them to go to someone who's going to apprechiate and love them as much as I did, which probably wouldn't happen within the family.
