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. Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, how have you been?

      Your own chosen child is coming to this world soon.

      Her pretty face is so clear now with her eyes wide open.

      When she put fine looking dresses, she will fly to where you are.

      She’ll be with you soon, so please hold on till she comes.

      Everybody is waiting to see a picture of you and your child when you are as
      good as you were in Japan.

      Thank you.

      From Mikey
      VOLKS INC.

    6. THAT is wonderful... really brings a smile.

      These REALLY arent just "dolls" are they.. and I am super impressed with the way Volks (and other companies) make those differences.
      Ages ago I read some stories of people going to the stores to pick up their dolls.. and it was just so special too.

    18. Wow, how completely awesome of Volks.

      I just finished reading the "English Lessons" thread from August, Sarah I'm so happy you were able to go directly to Volks in Japan and have so many opportunities there to meet Mikey and the president, to experience the Dolpa and recieve such a special gift.

      I'm very, very happy to have seen this thread :)

      Can't wait for photos!
