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.

Lies you tell yourself about BJD

Apr 24, 2021

    1. I am limited to buying only one doll this year (absolute lies).
       
    2. I only need a few sets of eyes and wig combinations! (each new outfit/theme seems to need a new wig and new eyes!)
       
    3. “I know bjds are expensive, that’s whyyyy I’m gonna stop buying them soon”
      while my cats watch me clicking purchase on a bjd doll that very night

    4. That I'm done collecting when I reach my current goal lol
       
    5. I'm telling myself I don't want another fen jie xian. I don't need more...

      (But I want more!)

      ;o;
       
    6. It's not that expensive... (I say as I fail to factor in shipping, clothing, wig, shoes...)
       
    7. *laughs in BJD collector* Ok so forever ago when I got into the hobby...

      "I'm only going to have a couple and they will all be hot as hell woman." Looks at army of resin and how most are males, also just how varied the mix of gender identities is now. Though most of them are still hot, so that bit was only half a lie. (A few like the modded ones and young ones break that up and are not "hot" thus half truth.)

      "I'm never getting a YoSD, or child like doll." I've a lot of 13ish year old looking dolls and 3 YoSDs which are like between 4 and 6 in age respectively.

      Pet dolls are so costly for size I'm never going to get one that's not a free gift. I've paid for a few pets, and want to buy one of those really nice hairless cats dolls someday.

      "Other then my doll that is a clone, and his DNA donor, I can't see my self owning more then one of the same mold." Welp broke that forever ago with no regrets.

      "I don't think I could ever sell a doll." Sold a few that just didn't work out for me and do not regret it. (Protip If the doll doesn't work rehome it you'll be happier.)

      Now of days I try not to make statements like "I'll never X" or "I don't/wont Y" to avoid this very thing. XD

    8. "I'm just gonna get two to help me with my characters drawing and then I'm done."
      "This year I'm only waiting for narmer and no more. He is going to be the last one."
      "I deserve it. I need to get myself something wonderful."
      These are lies I tell myself every time while I'm shopping online.

    9. “I’ll only buy clothes and accessories I can’t make” (bought 2 whole outfits for my boy about a week after he arrived)
      “He only needs one pair of shoes” (currently has 2 pairs with a 3rd on the way)
      “One shelf is enough space” (he’s 62cm. And I wanted furniture. Clearly I’m bad at math lol)
      “I’ll wait a year before I buy another” (I’m pretty sure that if one of the dolls I’m looking at rn goes on sale, I’d buy it in a heartbeat)
       
    10. "I'm not a msd person strictly SD dolls"
      "I prefer dressing boys rather than girls I'll collect more boys"

      The msd size has become a huge favorite for me lol I find dressing them to be really exciting and I find more clothes I like for them than my SD dolls

      My collection is almost entirely girls at this point XD now I rarely see boys that I'd like to dress
       
    11. "I'll only get one."
      I have nine with two on the way and twelve extra heads... :sweat
       
    12. I am done buying BJDs.

    18. 1. “I will buy only one doll and only one dress for her!” -> “I will not buy more than ten dolls!” -> “No more than twenty..” -> Now I’m not counting them… hhhh
      2. “It seems like not my style.. blah blah” -> Wish to have them

    20. “Each doll only needs one or two outfits, I won’t change them that often.”
