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.

    3. OMG YES!!!! :fangirl: Thanks MiyaDoru! :D You can uncross those digits now, I just checked email and I got mine! There ws the notice from Charles to make my first of two layaway payments! I'll be getting BuBu with his original face-up and Snoink too! Getting this email today really takes the sting out of the Volks NYC Dolpa 4 being cancelled or postponed. No fear of swine here!! :apig: :lol: :apig: :lol:

      Hugs, Juli DC :apig:

    4. Great Juli, welcome to our "BuBu-club" :-) Congrats!!!
       
      #104 MiyaDoru, May 16, 2009
    5. Thanks again for your good wishes. :) Maybe we should start calling ourselves the "BuBu Bunch"! LOL!

      Meanwhile, I'm so sorry that some here are so heartbroken that Charles' site is sold out of BuBu. At least it looks ad if you might still have the option of getting him from the doll dealer who posted earlier in this thread. :)

    6. Hi Everyone!

      CCC has three official dealers/vendors: Triskel Fantasy, Chantals Dolls Alley and Think Pink ! - These European (NL) online BJD shops have very limited quantities available for pre-order of BuBu.
      Thank you and have a wonderful day,
      Charles

    7. I missed out on the ones on Charles' site too, so I just got one from Think Pink! I'm in USA and with the exchange rate it cost maybe 50 dollars more than the ones on the CCC site including all shipping. At least US people don't need to pay the nasty VAT tax. So if someone really needs to get in on the orange pigs, you might check the dealers. I think Chantals had him at same price, I didn't see him on the Triskel site but I could have missed it because I pretty much decided to buy from Think Pink! due to their feedback over here.

    8. You're welcome Juli :) Oooo hihihi nice "BuBu Bunch" :aheartbea LOL
      Luckily indeed to read there are a few more dealers in Holland that have low stock of BuBu :D

      Hii BunnyDots, congrats on getting one through Think Pink! Welcome to the "BuBu Bunch" there is a special waitingroom for CCC creatures here on DoA as well :lol:

    9. MiyaDoru: Did you go to the Dolliverse today? Charles had his proto type there and I was able to hold the little guy. Compaired to my Dasha he is so cute and light. It was nice seeing the doll in person. Now the long wait! Thanks Charles for the info on the Dolliverse cant wait to see future projects.

    10. Thanks MiyaDoru, I decided I would get a Snoink too and since I had to order that from Charles' site I got a Bonaka as well, since that's also a little pig :) I have a tiny woodland house that I bought like 20 years ago and Bonaka is the perfect size to live in it.

    11. Dear Bunnydots,

      The prices mentioned at the official NL CCC dealers are the standard Euro prices for our Dutch/Europe (CCC) customers. (I'm sorry about the 'high' excange rate for you).

      Congratulations on getting BuBu through Think Pink! :)
      (And thank you so much for your order of Boneka Kayu and Snoink too!)

      Take care,
      Charles

    12. I'm so excited, I'm getting Bubu Odoroki too!
      I always wanted Alice, but somehow never had the money when she released somehow. I'm so happy I didn't though, Bubu fits in with our dolls much better :D

      I think he will accompany me at work, like our other petdolls.
      That way, they actually receive some attention from us, at home the larger dolls usually consume our time with their needyness (new outfits, wig changes, maintenance) LOL.

      I can't wait to see her happy little face everyday when I arrive :aheartbea

    13. In theory...is Bubu a boy or a girl?...Just wondering because I have not decided...although originally I thought HE was a little boy piggy....

      Hi Maankatje,

      It was so great to meet you in person at the BJD Con Dolliverse yesterday!
      Here is some pic spam of BuBu's and Snoink's 1st appearance to the public:

      Truly was wonderful to have met lots of BJD fans and of course Maankatje: 'one of the lucky 50 future BuBu owners'.

      Thank you!

    17. Oh noooo I missed that event...darn it...sure would have liked meeting Charles in person too and hold BuBu, but I'm not sure if I would have given it back :? Thanks for the pictures Charles!
       
      #117 MiyaDoru, May 18, 2009
    18. Oh what fun pictures - so nice to see even more of our cute to the hundredth degree little piggy! (And Charles is almost as cute as little BuBu! ;) )
       
      #118 gatodelsol, May 18, 2009
    19. Yes, Charles I read that...and he is going to be a boy at my house..wish I could have seen him in person last weekend....but oh well...too far to fly from the US to see the piggie!!!
       
      #119 RoseAnn, May 19, 2009
