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 long was it between getting your first and second doll?

Apr 17, 2007

    1. I got my first doll in January 2012 and my second at the end of September 2012.

      I have a secret girl hidding in my wardrobe since October... (psst). And I managed to get into the preorder of Irreal Enyo in December, but he won't be here til June (or something like that).

      So time and money goes fast in this hobby!
       
    2. I got Amir on April 10, 2008. I got Loki in September. So about 5 months. :)
       
    3. The second one is still on her way, so it will probably be around 3 months between the first and second. I ordered the second when the first hadn't even shipped yet (I wanted her anyway and Iplehouse announced a price raise so I jumped on her to avoid having to pay $50 more).
      I should mention that I had been saving for dolls for at least half a year, while still researching which one to get. As much as I wish I were able to keep bringing them home at that speed, funds won't permit it. :sweat
       
    4. I bought my first doll in December and she came early January. I didn't even make it a full week after her arrival before I bought my second and I have a third currently on layaway with plans for a fourth and fifth next month OTL
       
    5. I purchased my first doll in July or August 2010 (she arrived in September) with the second one ordered the end of December 2010 (didn't arrive until July 2011 though). The Christmas sale they were throwing made me jump at buying him quicker than I was intending, but he was actually planned.
      I then took an almost year long break from Dolls completely and in March/April 2012 I ended up impulse buying a Soom Teenie Gem at my return to BJDs, quickly followed by a second less than a month later.
       
    6. It took me a few months before I ordered my second doll, a couple if I recall correctly... xD My Nowe wanted his brother, so... u3u; Then I hiked upwards from there...
       
    7. I haven't received my first yet, but I'm considering ordering a YOSD next month to mod :P
       
    8. I bought my first doll in December of 2010, and purchased my second doll 7 months later from the DoA MP. At this time I still hadn't recieved my first doll, so my second doll was actually my first arrival.
       
    9. I waited eleven months before buying my second doll, and I sold the first doll prior to the purchase of the second doll.
       
    10. I think it only took me a couple of months. Ive been in the hobby about 3 years and ive had over 30 dolls in my home, for me it is addictive.
       
    11. I got my first doll second hand 2009, and I didn't get my second doll until last year, 2012! So a couple a year's between them xD
      But I got my third doll just two months after I purchased my second! ^^
       
    12. Around four months. It wasn't my intention to buy a second doll so soon after my first but it was a limited edition and I didn't want to miss my chance.
       
    13. I only waited a few months after my first arrived to get my second! And now I'm getting another! Growing family! :D
       
    14. I got my first doll in October, and didn't plan on getting a second for the next few years. However, in December I got enough money to order a second doll, and I did.
       
    15. I bought my second at the same time I bought my first... Though that was unintentional. At the time, I honestly thought that Tien Jen (my Dreaming Shiwoo) was just going to be an alternate head for Harumatsu (a standard, open-eyed Shiwoo). When they arrived, though, their face-ups were so different that there was no way they'd ever pass for being the same "person".

      So, I bought a second body and my first one became my first two. Seven years later, they're both still here. :lol:
       
    16. I ordered my first doll on 1/17/13, Eva from Iplehouse, then thought for a week that I should have Stella instead...too late, so I ordered Stella on 1/24/13. Of course I don't have either one yet, so no dolls in hand, money all spent, and the wait is killing me. Still I am looking for another, this time an MSD. This hobby is insanely addictive and I just started!
       
    17. this, @Mio-Neko pretty much read my mind
      except I got my first doll in November 2012

      to answer the question though, I haven't gotten a second doll yet (and probably won't for a few years), but I'd like to get a few more someday

    18. I was acctually lucky enough to buy my first two BJDs together.
       
    19. Hmmm...a couple of months I think...
       
    20. It was about a month before I decided I wanted a second one... but now I want them all, so go figure. xD
