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?

Feb 26, 2014

    1. I'm 53, and I bought my first bjd in 2010.
       
    2. I am 23 going on 24.
      With a hobby as expensive as BJD, It is more of a thing for adults I think.
       
    3. My bros and I just joined this hobby, we're all 19. And I think we each have two dolls each hahahaa.
       
    4. 63. I've been into dolls most of my life. I like making versions of my characters I can have around me.
       
    5. I am 32 years. I started collecting dolls 4 years ago)
       
    6. I'm 36. I bought my first doll in 2009.
       
    7. I'm 31 and I bought my first bjd in 2007 when I was 24.
       
    8. Hiya, I'm 18 and been into BJDs for about a year now and have my very first one on his way to me. :)
       
    9. I'm 20 years old and will be 21 in July.
      I'm sorta new to the BJD hobby and don't plan to get out of it any time soon.
      To be honest I was surprised at the age range of the members in this hobby at first, but it just goes to show that age doesn't matter.
      You are never "too old to play with dolls".
       
    10. i'm 23 and in a month i'll be 24. i starter with the hobby 2 years ago but have known about bjd' since i was 12.
       
    11. I'm 19 and just got my first doll, I don't think you can ever be too old for BJDs.
       
    12. I'm 15 and I started the hobby at 12. But we don't talk about my face-ups when I was 12. No no. They don't exist.
       
    13. i've just turned 29.
       
    14. I am 50+, and just got my first bjd.
       
    15. I'm 25 and started collecting Blythe dolls when I was 20 or so and BJDs maybe a year later. It's an expensive hobby and I honestly have no clue how people in their younger teens manage to be apart of it :?
       
    16. I'm 21 and will be turning 22 later this year. I don't think I'll ever fall out of love with my BJDs. I may delve in quite a few hobbies and other things I like but my dolls always come first (for the most part) over my other hobbies. They've given me an artistic outlet that I could only ever have with drawing or writing (which I haven't done in a few years due to no inspiration on my part). My dolls inspire me though and as long as that spark is there, I will keep collecting and make them into wonderful and beautiful little people.
       
    17. I'm 21, been in the hobby for four years now. Growing up doll collecting where I live has always been seen as more of a hobby for little old ladies who like to be surrounded by pretty things. I personally say age is just a number, and you're never too old to collect something that makes you happy.
       
    18. 19years old going 20 this year ! ;)
       
    19. Happy to see this tread is still going, I love seeing all your replies! Keep them coming! It's great we have so many ages here! :D
       
    20. I'm 23, turning 24 on May. I've been following the hobby since '08-'09, and I just barely got my first doll back on January. I'm really happy to have been able to finally join it :D
