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.

    2. I only wish they'd ship my tanned Belle special. It will be a full two months on Wednesday since i ordered her. I'm usually pretty patient but I think because they oversold the Christmas elves and held these up so that is why it makes me angry.

      They sent my Christmas tan Miel in less than a month but gave me no consideration for increasing the size of the LE. Another board told me that was not a big deal and that other companies just cancel orders if they accidentally make a mistake and that I should be happy to get the doll. Yes, but a LE30 should be worth more than a LE of 100 or whatever. How nice that a payment glitch on the website earned them more $$. Those dolls were more $$ than these dolls!

      I'm sure I will love her if she ever arrives but it has been a long wait. I think I should get one of the free wigs as it's now February. I didn't win a sleepy Puri but a wig would be nice. This is of course, just IMHO but I'm not sure I'd ever buy from Lati again. Too many tinies being offered to put up with this type of bad customer service.

      She finally arrived today and she is so tiny I can't get over it. Very cute doll but what a long wait for her. I know some dolls like Unoas and others take very long but this doll I really didn't think would be so long coming. I do like her--now to find her some clothes besides her one little dress. Oh, and where would you find such tiny shoes?

      #184 redfish, Feb 25, 2008
    5. Does anyone have both a basic Lami and a special tanned Lami?
      I'd like to see how the two faceups differ.

    6. Oh these kids are lovely..I really love them in the tan skin and will definately be looking out for one now..
      Aya22..your tan Lea is sooo gorgeous, she looks just like a little girl I know, and I'm so glad you put up pics as I will be on the look out for one. I am going to have to stalk Lati site so I don't miss out. I am just loving these dolls.

    7. Finally my tan Miel arrived yesterday!! I won't be able to take pictures for a while though ; ; Longest wait I ever have to do for a doll but she is soooo worth it!! I definately want another tanned doll if I can get my hands on one =D I know just the one too =o

    8. Ohhh, all these tan babies are so cute! Not helping my Lati fever at all...
       
      #188 Punkydoll, Feb 28, 2008
    9. hehe, and it's a fever that just doesn't go away, I'm telling you.

      :D

      Tanned Lea is probably my favorite lati yellow out there ever. She is just way too adorable for her own good. I seethe in jealousy of those of you who own her.

    10. Kai, your tanned Miel is so gorgeous! I only discovered Latis at the beginning of the year, so I have been waiting and waiting for them to restock! I had made my mind up to get a basic version yellow coco, but I have just spent the morning looking at all the lovey miels on Flickr, soooo cute, I just might have to go with a Miel first I think :)
       
      #190 caya, Mar 1, 2008
    11. im one of those that discovered these only too late! and beautiful photos on flickr are NOT helping!!! :|

      Does anyone know how much tanned yellow latis get released in a year roughly? if it takes TOO long i might just consider adopting one for sure... ( that alone would take ages as well *sigh* )

      i dont have a tiny and im hoping to have a couple or.. three.. or four lati babies.. XD;;

    13. This is the first time Lati has released tan yellow dolls since they opened in 2005? I'm pretty sure ...

      With the exception of grown up laches which at first was a special lottery gift to customers who bought a Grown up Lina and/or Pury (only 14 were given away out of 100 Lily's and 100 Pury's, in otherwords you had a 14/200 chance to get one). Grown up laches lottery gift was a one time deal, until customers kept asking and asking for another release of grown up laches which finally LatiDoll apealed to by releasing Grown up Laches, 30 SP and 30 Renewal (16cm) versions as a "This is your last chance to have him!" sort of deal.

      Soo ... XD I honestly have no idea if or when they will release tan yellows again, they didn't say if this is the only time they will release them or not. Only Lati knows! ^^;;
       
      #193 redfish, Mar 4, 2008
    14. Oh congrats girls, all your tanned babies are just too cute!! I hope Lati can do tanned skin tone as an option, like normal skin, white skin and tanned skin, I mean, the make-up can be default, just an skin option.

    16. Hi Nurie
      have you made it out to any of our local (lower mainland meets?) If you are planning to come to the next, I can bring my tan kids to show you in person. I cant bring all the kids to meets anymore but will fit special requests in. I'm not looking to part with any of them, but seeing in person can make a difference once you hold them, for size and fit etc. I have Guiness (laches, white line, tan), Belle (white sp line, tan), Rynn (Lumi, yellow line, ns), Zonk (xmas Meil, yellow sp line, tan) and Momo (yellow sp line, tan).

      From what i've seen, Lati does limited releases of each part of their line to ensure that they can keep up with the demand (within reason). Once its broken down, they will probably only put each section out once a year. so the tiny tans were in december/jan and they're now putting out the tans in the other sizes. then they will likely do something in the summer, etc. so far, I havent seen a specific pattern.

      Many of my kids are preloved adopted from the market place. Its where patience comes in. Check regularly, put in a WTB and put it in your signature. You never know what will happen.

    17. redfish : oh wow.. had no idea this was the first! thank you so much for the info! : ) that would mean their face-ups and even the color won't be consistent of course.. since they make it by batches.. oh well, since I'm very much in love with their current color.. so I took a chance and just bidded on 1 tan coco ^-^;; it's much more expensive than i would have ever hoped to pay for a small lati but I really want her quite badly x_X; so here's to hoping i'll win her ^^; ...

      Selmada : I've never been to any of the meets! : ( I've only started collecting in january and only received my first doll at end of jan ) I actually was not planning to go this year seeing as I don't know anyone there and it makes me feel a bit uncomfortable going to somewhere I don't know anyone at all! ^^;; Perhaps next year.. or if there was a meet at end of this year.. it would have been SOOO much better.. I am not too sure though..

      i personally dont want to drop by when I hardly have much stuff for my dolls yet.. >_> and I'm actually still "redoing" my little family.. lol I'm thinking of sticking to MSD size and Tiny size.. they are much more fun for me to photograph.. ^^;;

      I really do appreciate the offer though!! Ah.. summer =3= ;; they probably might.. it might have been best if i actually waited/could wait >__>; I would kick myself if they started releasing basic tan dolls T_T because I would have saved SO much!! but if all of them are special tans.. then it would not make that HUGE of a difference..

      But I have bidded on one tan coco at the moment.. and if I win it.. i am paying almost than 3x the cost of a basic doll.. oh well.. ^^;;

      -

      Thank you so much for your reply guys! I really appreciate it!! ^___^

    18. Nurie, I went to my first meet when I had only 1 doll and for only a short time, and I knew NO ONE. It was a great experience. I got to see other dolls in person that I had only seen online and I made some great friends. Most of the people, I only see at doll meets, but a couple have ended up being good friends. The ages range from very early teen up to the 40s. Parents sometimes attend and are always welcome. Its a really great way to see the dolls and even find some inexpensive stuff for your dolls (or at least save on shipping). Local dealer Featherfall will be there too.

      If you want to read about the next meet, you can find it here.

      There will be at least one other coming from Richmond for sure. We'd love to see you.
