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 Old Are You (continued... 2)

    1. 30 now, 13 years in the hobby off & on. This hobby is my escape. Expensive. But well worth the price of seeing an original character come to life.

    3. I’m 18 and hoping to get my first doll soon :thumbup
       
    4. Almost 20 years old. I have been interested in this hobby since I was 13, but I could not afford a doll until I became an adult. :3nodding:
       
    5. 22! I got my first bjd at age 20 but have been doll-obsessed since I was a child lmao
       
    6. turned 21 a few months ago! always wanted a BJD since age 10 and finally got one at 19! :D
       
    7. I’ll be 30 next month. I’ve been involved in the hobby on and off since I was 14 and got my first bjd for my 15th birthday.
       
    8. Turning 21 this year!! I just got my first doll last year but I’ve but I’ve admired from afar (Instagram and YouTube) for years haha
       
    9. 24! It's cool to see that there's a big age range in this hobby
       
    10. Just turned 27 few weeks ago. I had been in the hobby for a while but got the first doll two years go.
       
    11. I'm 33 and I got into the hobby sometime in college then left for maybe 9 or so years? I am freshly back this year.
       
    12. I don't mind admitting again that I am OLD! I'm 72 now. Doll collecting is not just for the under 30 crowd :D The nice thing about being an older collector, is that I don't have to get my parents' approval or ask for money for dolls. That must be hard. But when I WAS young and still lived with my parents, they supported my various choices of hobbies. Back then I was into dollhouses. My parents thought it was really cool.
