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 something were to happen to you...

Jul 21, 2013

    1. 1. If something were to happen to you, what you want done with your resin folk?
      I guess if my loved my dolls she could have them but I wouldn't want the to be stored away or discarded.

      2. Are there certain people who would get certain ones, or would you send them all to one person?
      What my mom wouldn't want I would get her to give them to one of my friends who would love and enjoy them.

      3. Would it upset you if the person you entrusted to care for your doll a) sold him/her b) changed their name c) changed their style, personality, or character. Why?
      No once they had the dolls I wouldn't mind what the person did with them.
      4. Does it really matter to you what happens to them when you're gone?
      I want them to go to loving homes i just would hope the people who choose to take them in would love them and care for them like I do.
       
    2. 1. If something were to happen to you, what you want done with your resin folk?
      I'd want to leave them to the friend who got me interested in the hobby because I know she'd love them and take care of them.

      2. Are there certain people who would get certain ones, or would you send them all to one person?
      As of right now they would all go to one person.

      3. Would it upset you if the person you entrusted to care for your doll a) sold him/her b) changed their name c) changed their style, personality, or character. Why?
      I think I would be really upset, but at the same time I trust that she would never do that because she understands how much these dolls mean to me. She has helped find and pick out a lot of dolls I want to add to my collection, after all.

      4. Does it really matter to you what happens to them when you're gone?
      I think on the one hand, hey I'll be dead and I won't care. But right NOW I care, so my living wishes are definitely what matter.
       
    3. 1. If something were to happen to you, what you want done with your resin folk?
      Well...whoever takes care of my junk will have to deal with my dolls too I guess. And knowing my family, they'll probably just leave everything untouched.

      2. Are there certain people who would get certain ones, or would you send them all to one person?
      I wouldn't really care I guess.

      3. Would it upset you if the person you entrusted to care for your doll a) sold him/her b) changed their name c) changed their style, personality, or character. Why?
      Nope since I'll be dead.

      4. Does it really matter to you what happens to them when you're gone?
      I'm sure when I'm dead, I wouldn't give a hoot anymore. I actually feel sorry for the person who has to deal with all my stuff.
       
    4. 1. If something were to happen to you, what you want done with your resin folk?
      I would hope they would go to someone who really loves them and cares about them as much as I do :aheartbea

      2. Are there certain people who would get certain ones, or would you send them all to one person?
      They would all go to my fiance, and he could keep all, a few, or sell them if he chooses.

      3. Would it upset you if the person you entrusted to care for your doll a) sold him/her b) changed their name c) changed their style, personality, or character. Why?
      Not at all. As long as they are well-loved and enjoyed, it doesn't matter :)

      4. Does it really matter to you what happens to them when you're gone?
      While I'm thinking about the situations now, it does matter to me, but when I'm gone their characters would be gone too. So whatever happens will happen. I can't guarantee that the person after the next will care for them well either, so it's best just to let it go.
       
    5. 1. If something were to happen to you, what you want done with your resin folk?
      my mom really likes them, If I didn't have a planned out I would want her to have them. However I have a few close friends I would want them passed on to...or my hubby, given that he too would be around.

      2. Are there certain people who would get certain ones, or would you send them all to one person?
      There are just too many to give to one person, but I would like them to go in the couples I have made them in.

      3. Would it upset you if the person you entrusted to care for your doll a) sold him/her b) changed their name c) changed their style, personality, or character. Why?
      a.) I wouldn't be upset if they sold them, i mean I'm dead at this point, they need the money I'm sure.
      b.) When the doll is theirs if they want to change the name, then it's up to them, ghost me might be a little upset, but it's ok.
      c.) I do have a strong character base for my dolls, but when I die, those characters go with me, I'm the only one who truly knows my dolls, so with someone else I can see that changing the personality is inevitable.


      4. Does it really matter to you what happens to them when you're gone?
      It does now because I'm still alive. I don't think on my dieing bed I'm going to demand someone look after the dolls lol. When I'm gone I guess what happens is up to the people living, they may or may not take out my wishes, just depends I guess who will honor someone who is gone.
       
    6. 1. If something were to happen to you, what you want done with your resin folk?
      Well, right now I am waiting for my first one, but if something were to happen to me after and I had her home or even had a family of dolls, I would probably ask my brother to hop on here and contact a moderator hold a contest for those who do not have any bjd dolls- to make their dream of owning one come true.

      2. Are there certain people who would get certain ones, or would you send them all to one person?
      See above answer. ;)


      3. Would it upset you if the person you entrusted to care for your doll a) sold him/her b) changed their name c) changed their style, personality, or character. Why?
      Well, if I were to sell a doll to someone, I wouldn't be upset because maybe that doll spoke differently to the person who bought him/her and needed a new look.

      4. Does it really matter to you what happens to them when you're gone?
      Yes. Like my other dolls that I collect, I would want them to go to someone who would truly appreciate them and be happy that they have them.
       
    7. 1. If something were to happen to you, what you want done with your resin folk?
      I don't think people would take extra pain to insure nothing happens to them or to respect my last wishes if I ever was not to die of old age... I mean my mum would probably be grieving, my dad doesn't give a s*** about BJD and my bro thinks they are a waste of good money... But if I ever had it my way, I'd like my dolls to be kept away in their boxes until my mums finds someone she deems worth of taking good care of them and gives them away to that person. I would hate them not to outlive me because I believe things, specially the ones that are to be deeply cherished, have a life of their own and grow from the care of their owners... I'd love to know that my dolls, because of the time and effort I spent on them, have made someone happy.

      2. Are there certain people who would get certain ones, or would you send them all to one person?
      Nop. Whosoever holds this doll, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of it's ownership.


      3. Would it upset you if the person you entrusted to care for your doll a) sold him/her b) changed their name c) changed their style, personality, or character. Why?
      Again, no... The changed name/style might be an improvement to mine, you never know

      4. Does it really matter to you what happens to them when you're gone?
      Might matter to those who will live on... Being dead myself, I really don't think I'll be able to tell (obviously)
       
    8. 1. If something were to happen to you, what you want done with your resin folk?

      They are to be sent to my best friend, the one that got me to start buying them. There is not a single other person I could think of that I would want to have them.

      2. Are there certain people who would get certain ones, or would you send them all to one person?

      Only one person would get the dolls, she is the one that I know would love them as much as I do.

      3. Would it upset you if the person you entrusted to care for your doll a) sold him/her b) changed their name c) changed their style, personality, or character. Why?

      I wouldn't have to worry about that. She is the one that has helped me design them. To her, Libra is Libra, Aideen is Aideen and so on.

      4. Does it really matter to you what happens to them when you're gone?

      It matters very much to me what happened to them.
       
    9. Well. This hit home today. I was diagnosed with Diabetes 2 days ago.
      Some people treat this like it's not a big deal, but I'm so confused and scared right now.
      But in any case, I've been thinking what's going to happen to my resin kids if something happens to me.
      Hubby knows they matter to me, but if I were to not be here, I am sure he won't want to keep them around to be reminded that I'm not here to "play" with them anymore.

      1. If something were to happen to you, what you want done with your resin folk?
      I would like one or two to go to my grandma. She likes to sew. Another one or two for my cousin that expresses some interest in them before. That is if they want them. Otherwise I think if hubby doesn't want to keep any, he should sell them so he can help himself a bit while he figures things out. I was thinking about asking friends for help. Maybe have hubby mail the dolls to them, so they can sell them and get the money to him. He knows aproximately how much the dolls are, but he is not current in the market and I don't want him to get ripped off.

      2. Are there certain people who would get certain ones, or would you send them all to one person?
      I would let grandma and cousin pick which they want if they want them.

      3. Would it upset you if the person you entrusted to care for your doll a) sold him/her b) changed their name c) changed their style, personality, or character. Why?
      I would not be offended at all. I would think if people don't want them, that they would sell them all. But if any of them decide to keep any, I would love for them to enjoy them as much as I have, or even more, and to make the doll(s) their own in whichever way they want :)

      4. Does it really matter to you what happens to them when you're gone?
      Yes it does. At the end of the day I hope they all go to good homes where they are wanted and appreciated. I've put love into all of them. Even the ones that I still haven't styled. I have already played with them as soon as they arrived, and held them, and took them out with me, probably to the office, and had them sit on my desk for the day, and have taken pictures and bonded in some way. I think if it didn't matter, I wouldn't even be thinking about what is going to happen to them. I know my dog and cat will have a home with hubby and he will take care of them as well as I do. But dolls are objects, and he is only interested in them because they are my thing, but otherwise he would have no use at all for them, other than to remind him I'm gone.

      I am optimistic, and think that with his help I will be ok and do well with this. Things are already looking up a tiny bit. So I know there is hope. But I think it might be time to make a will, "recruit" friends, and leave letters for everyone about what to do with my dolls :)
