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.

    1. I'm getting the fullset. I didn't get the wig or the face-up but I got everything else.

      I agree with Akudem, his full set clothes are friggen awesome. Not really sure what I will use it for, but one can never have an over-abundance of awesome in my opinion. :3

    2. Haha! That is the outfit I was looking at getting too. :aheartbea I'm going to be getting him a tank from Dollmore later too, and that'll be his outfit choices for a while. I do have some tiny dog tanks though! I wonder if he will fit them? :XD:

      I didn't think of the possibility of his outfit staining. I think I would be heartbroken if they did. D:

    3. I think I'll be ordering my Claude (Jerem) today. I might be able to sneak in a t-shirt and pants too, if I'm lucky. hehe

      I've already ordered his eyes and wig from Leeke, but I'll be getting the full-set from Iple anyhow. One can never have too many wigs/eyes/clothes/weapons/armor. :lol::lol::lol:

    4. I wish I had the money for his outfit at least, I really do. But as it was, getting the doll himself is going to turn out to be a feat. :\ I guess I'll just have to cross my fingers and hope that I'll be able to get his outfit second-hand after all my medical bills are paid off.

    5. I wonder, what does the mobility joint do, exactly? *researches* Is it worth it? Are you getting with or without? :o
       
      #345 delgadina, Aug 17, 2011
    6. I think the mobility joint is a preference thing. Some people love it, other hate it. Personally, I won't be getting it since a friend of mine has a JID with it and she says she sees practically no use for it.

    7. My EID has a mobility joint, and it actually makes it harder to get him to stand/pose. :\
       
      #347 Myuuchan, Aug 17, 2011
    8. I'm so glad I ordered mine without. Truthfully, I've seen more comments saying it is unnecessary etc. than useful esp. for the guys. And aesthetically, they look a lot nicer without ...

    9. Can I ask, as he is a Special Edition doll...I think? Is the Layway Plan available with 'Claude?' please?

      I hope so, I have never had a Male doll before, but he is just gorgeous!!! :)
       
      #349 LuvDolls64, Aug 17, 2011
    10. Yes, layaway is available with Claude.
       
      #350 luluna, Aug 17, 2011
    11. and yes, he is limited.

    12. I have the mobility joint on only one of my IH dolls -- a JID Asa -- and I like it. I find her easier to pose than the JIDs that don't have it, and it gives her a very pretty line. Not that Claude needs to look any prettier than he is already, LOL, but I did order him with the mobility joint.

      I did not order the outfit. Too much money, too few opportunities for him to wear it. I don't do characters, and most of my dolls are in modern dress, so a knight in armour would look out of place. I will be ordering other clothes from IH. Even though I sew for my other dolls, I haven't seen any patterns for boy dolls his size.

      Am I the only one here who ordered him with Faceup B? I liked both, but as I plan to use blond or reddish wigs for him, the lighter eyebrows seemed to work better.

    13. Great!!....Thank you! :)

    14. I do wonder when the first Claudes will start arriving! I'm not sure how long Iplehouse takes but hopefully blank Claudes will start shipping in the not too distant future! :D

      Also my boys wig has just arrived from Sseirin; it's gorgeous and the perfect colour though might need a chop when my Claude, Cullen gets here...in 3-4 months ^^'

    15. I was wondering the same thing (esp. as I ordered a blank one) and my wig came too and yes, it will also need a trim. The coloring should be perfect but I'm just worried about the fur fitting ... I can modify it if it's too big but I'm hoping the back isn't too high - I hate when the hair doesn't go down far enough but since I'll be trimming it AWEFULLY close, that will probably be the case :/

    16. I'm wondering when the Claudes will start coming as well. I got mine blank on the day he was released, but I got him with brushed armor so I don't know how much that will effect his... production time. ("production time" sounds so weird to me >> )

    17. Homan, a bit less than a week before I will order my Jonah. o_o I spent some of his down payment on a mooncake commission! :o As a result... he's not really getting anything extra for a while in the outfit department. It was totally worth it though! X3
       
      #357 Pandy, Aug 18, 2011
    18. And I just bought a Noctarcana Circus Akando!!
      I'm not sure how, but I have to have this guy! Don't think I would be able to forgive myself if I let him slip through my fingers! :(

      How does the layaway work(total newbie)?

    20. delgadina - It's [email protected] ^^

      Sparklin_me - Don't worry, layaway is very easy. You have to make a first payment of 1/3 the total amount owed, then the other payments can be made in whatever size works for you - As long as it doesn't take longer than 3 months. I decided to go with one downpayment and three smaller payments, one each month. I got my boy with no extra options and no face-up, so he was $695.80 after shipping.
      I ordered him, then waited for the order confirmation to show up in my email. You do not have to pay to place the order! The order confirmation will show up in your email as soon as you hit the order button.

      Once the email got to me, I copied my order number and went to Paypal. I clicked 'send funds' and included a message saying that it was payment 1 of 4.
      I sent an initial payment of $235.80, and then posted on Iple's Q&A board that I had sent a first payment, and told them that I planned to send $155 in September, $155 in October, and $150 in November to finish paying my doll off within 3 months. They replied saying it was verified. ^^
      Then you just send each payment the same way, by using 'send funds' in Paypal and including your order # in your comment box.

      That's about it.
