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.

How do you cope with waiting?

    1. I can no longer deal with the waiting!! There's been too many cases where I bought the doll and then when it arrived 3-9 months later I didn't really want it anymore. So my general plan going forward is just to buy second hand or in stock if possible. I bought my most recent doll off the marketplace here on DoA and it was great! Showed up like a week later.

      I have this problem with figure preorders too. Right now I have three preorders for Nendoroids that are supposed to be released in December and January and they vex me.

    2. If the doll is a standard size, I try to sew/buy clothes for them (I cannot for the life of me draft a pattern from measurements)
      Sadly all the dolls I'm currently waiting for have special measurements, so all I can do is wait and hope the wait time will be on the lower end of what was announced orz
