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.

    4. * What did you order? Through BJDivas a Island Doll Dragon Tiny
      * When did you order? BJDivas had one in stock so got in about 10 days.
      * Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? No! The price was a total waste and if they had done a better job on design I would have paid double, but now I feel ripped off.
      * Did the item look like the sales pictures? No they showed a dragon who could stand and sit and it can't do either.
      * Were you satisfied with the product? NO
      * Tell us some of the positives and negatives about this product (optional) The design was poorly thought out. The fact they manufactured a doll that has a head that weighs over 3 times what the body weighs and figured it would work is a poor choice on their part.
      * Would you buy more from this company? Never!

      The only way I am going to have a dragon is to replace body with a MSD green doll or replace head with something much smaller. But I shouldn't have to do either.

      If they make more unique sculpts like this.
