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)

Mar 16, 2015

    1. I will be 22 in March and I have been interested in the hobby for a few months now. I do not have a doll yet, however I hope to be able to buying one in the near future.
       
    2. I'm nearing twenty-eight and only started collecting dolls in the last year, though I've been interested in the hobby since college. I actually wasn't interested in dolls all that much growing up (extensive collection of model horses instead), so this is definitely new and different for me. But exciting!
       
    3. 23, gonna be 24 in April. I got into the hobby in high school and bought my first (and to date, only) bjd in college when I was 18. I've always loved dolls and after college I started working with antique dolls professionally. But learning restoration rekindled my interest in bjds, since you can do more with them artistically and aren't bound by historical accuracy.
       
    4. I'm 20 right now and got my first BJD 4 years ago. But I have been a lover of dolls all my life. I've only really been getting into the hobby in the past year or two though since I now have a group of friends who are also into it. And I got my sister into it to! ^^
       
    5. 32. I started collecting bjd in summer 2014. I've had a passing interest for probably about 10 years though I was never interested in dolls as a child.
       
    6. I'm 38, and I've been collecting dolls for as long as I can remember. I bought my first BJD about 8yrs ago after being introduced to them at a Lolita Fashion convention.
       
    7. Im 23, currently waiting on my first BJD to arrive. I've only known about the hobby four about 7 months, but the second I saw my first doll i thought YES, this is what I've been looking for!
       
    8. 23, turn 24 in September.
      Saving up for my first Doll *o*
       
    9. i'm around the teen age, and i'm currently saving up for my first bjd *U*
       
    10. i will be 33 in June.i`ve always collected dolls since my childhood.i got into BJDs last August.i have 3 BJDs and one coming soon.
       
    11. I'm 15, but I'm turning 16 next month. I realize that I'm pretty young to most people in this hobbie. I got into this hobbie about 6 months ago though surfing on the internet, and fell in love:D. I purchased my first doll last Christmas, but I'm still waiting her to arrive.
       
    12. Geez, I am old for this hobby! 50 this year.
       
    13. I'm 35 now and been admiring BJD since my twenties, always wanted one but never actually get one because of the price tags. Then I decided life is too short to keep away from things that can actually make me happy, and bought my first BJD in November 2016. I'm still in the buying frenzy to compensate myself for all those years I had been holding back lol...
       
    14. Turning 28 next month and got my first ABJD (FDoll Charlotte) about five years ago. She's still the only Asian BJD I own (I have a Sweetdolls Fairy Alex as well) but I just finished my BFA and hopefully once I get a job I'll be able to afford a few more!
       
    15. I'm 20 years old now and also waiting on my first doll to arrive! :love I've been into the hobby for a little while now, but seriously for maybe the last few months!
       
    16. 33, only recently became active again.
       
    17. Just turned 32 last Feb 14. I started the hobby just a year ago, though I've been admiring BJDs from afar since...maybe 2014. :3nodding:
       
    18. I'll be 18 this month. Gosh, I feel so young compared to many of you!
       
    19. I'll be 39 in a few weeks, yikes!
       
    20. I was 17 when I started and this year I will be 19~
