If someone broke your doll?

I always tell people before I let them hold my boys exactly how much they cost me, and how much they would be paying me if they broke them to replace the part/ whole doll. : D

...This usually makes people handle them much more carefully.

But if someone did break my doll... I'd probably be very upset, especially if it was their face. Because even though they are just objects, I am very attached to them. If it was maybe just a new body, I wouldn't feel so bad, but if I had to get a new face then it could never really be the same again...

 

I would defenetly make them pay. The official way, if needed be. Not for repair, but for new parts.
Unless it was a limited edition... than at least for repair.

 

For me, I definitely think it'd be situational... If someone was very nice and asked to hold me doll and was being careful, but something unavoidable happened I don't think I would push for them to pay!
However, if some random stranger took my doll and broke it somehow I'd be quite angry and would definitely insist they pay! Or even if a friend had my doll, but was being irresponsible! Probably more so if a friend had done it >.>")

 

I alway tell somebody who want to hold my doll on hand. Please be carefull. Don't touch face. something like that. If somebody broke my dolls, just buy a new one for me.

 

IF I had a doll...
...I think for the first few months noone else would get to touch him...

 

if somebody broke my doll, i would
kick them, beat them, throw them into rivers, kidnap them, grill them, *grumbles*
I would make them pay my doll. It's the basic thing. If you go to a shop and broke a vase that costs $10k, which shop wouldn't ask you to pay. >_<
The important thing is that it's my precious doll. How could they just broke it and say sorry and get their butts off the debt. (i felt like i'm too emotional.. = u =)
I wouldn't care who is it that's paying for it. Even they're my relatives(other than my family members.. and, anyway, i'm not close to them either), i would call them to pay what i've paid for it. I would let them live miserably! bwuhahahaa!!

 

Depends on the situation.
However, if it was out of ill will, I would like to say I'd break on them whatever they broke on my doll... but I'm too soft for that XD

 

lol, when I first read the title and nothing else my first comment I said was "I'd break them" but now reading your question. If someone broke my doll, and it was not a finger but the face or body then yes. I would want them to pay for it, even if it takes them a year, I would want it fixed. (Of course I'd ask a lot nicer, it's just i'm speed typing so my thoughts come out Harsh, I'm really not though =3 ) This is my crew that I love and cherish. I mean if I can live with the scratch then it's ok. I'll just laugh it off and shake my head and tell them not to worry.
In fact that happened. My friend took my Dollfie Dream with her to a meet for me, and when she was posing her the wind knocked her down and scratched her nose. I can't tell that it's scratched unless i feel it. It doesn't show in picture or in person. So I told my friend not to worry since if I really wanted to, I can get it sanded, But if she broke it fully, then I would ask nicely to fix the problem. Then again, she is the BEST EVER and would cry and demand me to let her pay. She's sooo sweet

If I should harm another person's doll, in any way that they don't think they can live with (I mean if it can be sanded, or cleaned), I will pay without even a second thought.

 

I often think to that, and I know I would get mad, really mad and ask to pay as soon they break something, in fact, I would be very clear with folks, you touch, ok, but if you break something trust me you will pay what you break.

I couldn't stand my babies being broken .... it has been too hard to get them to let people break them and say nothing. Even myself, I'm still afraid to do something bad and break something.

And If I break something to someone else doll I would offer to pay, I would feel so damn bad!

 

I'd break them! D< Jk/jk

I am always careful and very picky about the way they touch my dolls. I tell them to be gentle and even show them how they should hold them. So, I'm not sure. If they broke one of them, I would ask them to play. There is no way I'd let them go without either paying for repairs or worse, a whole new doll. Well, I guess I'm happy that rarely does anyone who doesn't have their own doll touch mine >.>;;

 

I was talking about this with my boyfriend before. If someone broke my Iplehouse boy, I would actually just freak out. I would DEFINITELY expect the person that broke him to pay for replacement parts. The problem would then be finding replacement parts since he's old type resin, and is slightly yellowed.

The idea of someone breaking my boy really makes me feel ill. He's so special to me.

Although, I do let a lot of people hold him (and all my dolls actually). I just make sure I'm always there when they're holding him, or that they're dolly people anyway. D's pretty hard wearing so I guess that makes me feel a bit better about him being held by other people.

If anyone breaks him though, it'd be a case of me bursting in tears and being hysterical or just going into shock, and my boyfriend would probably go completely mad at whoever broke them lol.

 

I think it's situational. If I broke someone's doll I'd offer to pay - because I know better. But I'm also responsible for my doll and if I handed it off to someone who didn't know anything, and I didn't tell them anything, if something happened it'd really be my own fault.
But also - if you are a vendor or selling something don't put the breakable expensive dolly stuff on the edge of the table. Please? Cause i'm such a klutz and I don't want to knock it off the edge reaching for a pair of socks

 

I probably wouldn't say anything if the person broke the doll, however, I'd offer to pay if I caused damage to someone else's doll.

 

My brother was trying to be funny when I got my first doll in and asking me questions like "What would you do if I was to just smash her right now?" I was like first I'd get you to pay for it and then I'd kill you. HAHA!

That's like my worst fear though. I'd be SO distraught if I broke my own doll and I would feel SOOOO horrible if I broke someone else's so I'd definitely offer to pay and apologize 100000 times.

 

I would expect them to replace the broken piece if possible. Just as I would expect to pay if I were to accidentally break another persons doll. It is just common curtousey. I would assume it was not in ill will, but that doesn't let them off the hook. I would expect them to feel just as baddly as I would personally feel if it happened in reverese. I will admit I am super careful about handling other people's dolls, I don't do it alot even because it makes me nervous. I tend to be a worrier. My husband has several dolls, and I don't even handle them much.

 

I’m pretty careful with my dolls. I don’t put them in situations where other people could damage them on purpose or by accident. (I don’t really go to meet-ups, or take them to school. I keep them literally locked up in my room when I‘m not there. And if someone who isn’t a doll person is going to hold them I give the disclaimer speech first. )

In short; it’s unlikely damage would be someone else’s fault.

But if it did happen then yes, they would pay for replacement or repairs. I wouldn’t get mad, but I’d demand they take responsibility for their or their children’s actions.

On the same note if I broke someone’s doll I’d feel awful. They’d be getting “I’m sorry” cards six months AFTER I paid them back.

tl;dr Spastic Panda is spastic. I agree with the more assertive people above.

 

Well, asides of tell anyone that brokes it: YOU GONNA PAID FOR IT. Its like i dont want it broken. For example if someone brokes his head, like nose or something, I should replace it, but It wont be the same HEAD, its like it wont be the same DOLL..>__< Doesnt feel the same.
Thats why i dont allow anyone touch it =3

I would probably be sent to Azkaban.... but then again...I wouldn't put my doll in a situation where another person would be flailing him into brick walls or something. =/ Everyone who touches my doll is like...super cautious with them. But yeah.


Punishment would be imminent.

 

Well, if I broke someone else's doll, I'd immediately exchange contact information and offer to pay to replace whatever I broke if possible, and feel bad forever. Or at least until the replacement part arrived.

If someone broke or damaged mine, I'd feel pretty much the same way. If it were her hand, I might feel less upset, since I plan on having replacement hands, but if it was her face, I'd be super upset. Perhaps it's rude to assume the person responsible for the damage should pay for a replacement if it was available, but I would certainly hope that the person would feel as bad as I would, and then offer to pay for the replacement part.

If they didn't, I'd be pretty upset, and likely not attend a meet with them again, and if I somehow ended up at a meet with them again, I'd break their hands before I let them handle my things again >_>

To another person they're just things, but to me, they can be like my child, especially since I don't actually have kids yet... >_>;;
