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.

If someone broke your doll?

Jul 11, 2009

    1. It depends how Major the prob is.
      Like if it was a finger they broke, i'd say: "No worries, i'll fix that soon/later."
      If it was a face crack or body breaks or something major i'd say: "Don't stress out, I might be able to replace it. But at least try to owe half the money for the replacement." I would be mad inside, but i wouldn't want to show it because it can be pretty rude when they are really sorry about it.

      But if i broke it... I'd probaly be like: "OMG, I'm so, verry, verry sorry about that." And i'd probaly cry a bit.
      And i would Use ALL of my pocket money (or most of it) to pay for the replacement.
       
    2. It depend by who and how my doll is broken. I'm a quiet sort of person, but I can be really impulsive when it comes to doll, so if someone broke my doll, I'll be first in shock and I'll punch in the person's face xD But I don't really let non-bjd personhandle my dolls. And I know that in meetings everyone pay attention to what they're doing (sometimes, I think the doll is so gorgeous that I'm to affraid to handle it o___o) so I hope my dolls won't be broken ...
       
    3. I would probably have a facial expression like this first: 0_0. And when i get over my initial shock i'll be saying something like this: You just broke a very expensive doll you know and demand compensation. But that's only if she has severe damage. If it's just a finger or something similar i won't get mad and be like, it's ok i can easily fix this. Thing is i don't let people i don't trust handle my doll.

      If i on the other hand was the one breaking the doll i'd die inside and start saying that i'm very, very, very sorry. And offer to pay for the damage.
       
    4. if my doll is broken by the others, i will definitely kill him/her .\ /.
      Actually, i do not allow the others to tough my dolls =(
      If i break them, i think i will definitly pull all my money to fix them cus they are all unique for me....
       
    5. I could not help feeling blue somehow. For me the fair thing would be that person tried to take responsibility of the damage caused, same way I would try to in case I were the person who did, although, to be honest, I do not think many people would offer it. If small damage, the intention to offer it would be more than enough for me, but if serious damage I would ask for a compensation if the person who caused it did not offer it by himself/herself.
       
    6. In case of unfixable damage, I would probably explode in anger if it was on purpose.
      Disrespect of someone else's property is a sign of bad upbringing to me and unforgivable behaviour.

      If by accident, I would still be angry because of their incautiousness.

      I would definitely demand a compensation for either the repairs or replacement.
      Considering 5 out of 6 are limited, they are practically irreplaceable...
      And even if I could, it's a big chunk of money.

      If I ever accidentally damaged someone else's doll, I would most likely apologize over and over, to the point I would be kissing their feet. I would not hesitate to pay for the repairs/replacement.
       
    7. My sister (she's 14) once threw one of my dolls of my table, because she was angry with me. I got so angry at her i slapped her immediatly. She wasn't sorry for it. Not even as i noticed that his face up was destroyed. I had to remove it completly. And it was a defaulf face-up u.u So i know i would kill someone who does anything to my dolls on purpose. if it happens accidentally I would get sad, even cry if something major happens, and i would say things i regret later... but i would apologize later and talk with that person. I think I'm to soft to force a person to pay for something broken when they are sorry for breaking it... ^^"
       
    8. Hmmmm depending on who did it. If I did it, of course I would get her fixed right away. But if someone else did it I would like them to take responsibility and pay to repair it :(. Thats my baby ya know? How would you would have liked it if someone dropped you and you broke your fingers!? Glad I am not the only one who thinks the same.
       
    9. I was blushing a pair of hands when I put them on my sister's bed for better light comparison. (We share a double deck) She conducted her sleeping ritual and started dusting the bed before sleeping. Then out of nowhere, she had accidentally dusted the hands (both of them) off the bed. They flew off and hit the cupboard about 2 feet above air before they crashed.

      The damage was a dented finger (right on the tip of the nail). I was so devastated (and still am). I'm the kind of person who takes excellent care of my possessions and this one was not 'replaceable'. The hand was not a limited but it was one of the original releases back in 2004 (and had been discontinued until 2008 where they were back in-stock). Resin match would be redonkulous and nearly impossible. She offered to pay up, but it wouldn't do anything. The hand is already dented and there was no way I could get another pair that would replace a 2004-resin-batch hand.

      Moral: Won't ever let my doll be in the presence of unsupervised fast-motion and my sister. EVER.
       
    10. i'll be pissed! especially if its due to negligance. i take good care of my things, and even if it's non doll items, i'll be upset about it. though of course, depending on the damage and worth of the item to me, i may or may not demand payment.

      but i'm rather cautious about handing my dolls to people. even my friends need to realise how important it is to take good care of them before i'll let them hold. but then, my friends are responsible enough, and they are even more particular about how to take care of their things so...
       
    11. Like many others have said, I would definitely be thinking that they should pay for the broken part, but, I don't think I would be able to confront the person about it and actually enforce my thoughts. If I was the one who had broken a part, I would definitely pay for that part to get fixed.
       
    12. You may have already done this but if the hand is just dented not broken you can fix that really easily by boiling it. There's a few tips/tutorials in the HELP section.
       
    13. if it was on purpose, like if someone was angry at me, and they chipped something, that is a punch in the face right there.
      i'm a bit dramatic, you see?
      now, if it was IRREPAIRABLE, and this item was something worth a lot/not something i could get easily (like if they chipped berlin or broke a finger off)
      then i...
      would blow a gasket. i would not only go off of them and make them feel like the lowest, smallest piece of dust on earth, but i would demand the cost of said item for a new one, PLUS interest. ghghghgh just thinking about it boils me up.
      i'm not shy, and i certainly won't let people get away with doing such things to prized possessions. it really makes me wonder when friends come crying to me 'oh so and so broke off my doll's finger on purpose! help me fix it!' help you FIX it? more like help you BREAK the person who did it's nose. oh my god.
       
    14. I tell anyone who wants to hold or touch any of my dolls that if they break it they pay for it, I don't have a bjd yet but I have several $600+ dolls that I wont let most people touch. But my general thing is if they break it they're paying out for it, even if they're my best friends. If they broke a custom girl i'd make them pay for the doll AND the price of a general faceup T______T
       
    15. I'd probably blow a gasket if someone broke my doll and demand they pay for replacement/repairs regardless of whether it was on purpose or not. Though angrier if it was on purpose.


      I'd probably lose ten years off my life from the shock/shame alone if I ever broke someone's doll. @_@ Especially if it was a limited a something.
       
    16. If it were minor damage to the body, I'd laugh it off and do my best to repair it. Major damage or damage to the face, yes, I'd ask whoever broke it to pay...assuming it's someone I know. I doubt I'll ever have strangers handling my doll, but if they did and broke it, I probably wouldn't have the guts to ask them to pay for it. I'm pretty shy around people I don't know.

      If I broke someone else's doll, I'd feel terrible and apologize like crazy and offer to pay for it right away.
       
    17. I'd make them pay for a new one xD end of! :evil:
       
    18. As far as I'm concerned if a child breaks something, as they're their parents responsbility, the parent is responsible for the damage and should pay up
       
    19. I'll never talk with that person again. Even that person pay me back, for me, other doll can't replace my broken doll even he has the same face and shape.
       
    20. If someone broke my doll...or any part of my doll....sure he/she needs to pay it...I'll force him/her if it's necessary
