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)

Feb 16, 2018

    1. Oi, 18 years here, ahahaha. It's an expensive hobby for someone my age...and going into university...but I make and save money whenever I can, apparently budgeting runs well in the family, aheh.
      I think it's fantastic to see such a large variety of ages in this community, though. Variety in general is always good~ :)
       
    2. I am 28 and found about BJD about one year ago... actually by searching for... lets just say "somethingelse" XD
       
    3. I'm 22 and I've been interested in this hobby since I was 17!
       
    4. Wow, that’s some dedication! I can’t imagine staying committed to a hobby for an entire decade without having a single one, it’s quite amazing to me you were able to. May I ask how you kept yourself involved in the hobby in the meantime?
       
    5. I'm 49.
      I wonder what the middle age is in this hobby.
      Did anyboby make a statistic?

    7. I'm 18 and I got Linnhe, my first doll, when I was 13 (I think?)
       
    8. I am turning 24 in September :) I wish I could find more people my age in the hobby where I live... but it’s just not popular in Australia :(((
       
    9. I'm turning 30 in December (ugh), and since it's such a nice round number, I think I'll buy my first bjd for my birthday!
       
    10. I’ve wanted an ABJD since I was 24, but only now, ten years later, can really afford them! So I’m 34. :)
       
    11. I'm 39.
      I discovered BJDs when I was 29, and bought my first when I was 31. ^^
       
    12. I'm 20 been interested a few years though (maybe 3years)
       
    13. Nearly 29 and I've had dolls since I was 18.
       
    14. I turned 17 last week! I got my first doll before that, but my interest in bjds actually started when I was 11, because my mother has always collected dolls!

    15. I'm 31 and I've been oogling over bjd's for the past few years. My grandmothers both collected porcelain dolls, and my mother used to take classes in porcelain doll making when I was a child. I love all dolls but, resin has been a great medium to discover.
       
    16. I’m 23 but have been in the hobby since I was 14-15!
       
    17. 56 :o but I am just a poor University student, living in halls with a HUGEEEEE overdraft just possibly doll related :frownyblush:
