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. She is very vry imperssive, but again they have over priced the clothes and aesthetics, not to mention that the tatoos are 150$ extra....too bad, because I really like this doll.

    3. Yeah, too bad the price makes splitting pretty much impractical...*window shops* ;3;

    4. I like her very very much! ^-^
      But it's hard for me to save so much money!

    5. GAH. Who wants to give me $1450 so I can bring her home? :sweat

      One of my missions in life is to bring a Mousa doll home!:aheartbea
      I had a Thalia once but her face was just too flat and childlike for me in person, and she looked weird against my other dolls. I'd paid so much for her I couldn't justify keeping her when she wasn't perfect so I let her go.
      Clio has been haunting me for YEARS and she's still available, but my fear that she too will suffer from flat face syndrome has held me back... so far!
      With Polyhymnia, I fell in love TOO LATE. She was one of those sculpts that grew on me slowly over time until I suddenly realized she was PERFECT, but by that time she'd sold out and I've had no luck on the second hand market.

      In the same way as Polyhymnia, Calliope was beautiful to look at, but wasn't a must have when I looked at her pics this morning. Tonight though, I'm seeing a LOT more in her and can feel my grabby hands stating to twitch in the direction of the monitor!
      I'll give it another few days to make SURE before I commit to anything - aka a very long layaway - but just GAH!!!:doh

      I agree though that Musedoll really do overprice the Mousa dolls.
      If they were more like $1000 (which is still a huge amount of money), I think more people would be willing to go for them.

    6. Musedoll always has pretty limited dolls- the clothes are always so intricate and impressive. But it's all just so expensive T.T

    7. Indeed, their stuff is crazy expensive. >< I can at least vouch for their quality though. Every Musedoll outfit I've ever ordered or seen has pretty much been the highest quality the dollmarket can order. It's pretty much like getting good namebrand stuff. The details are gorgeous and the material is lovely and perfectly scaled!

    8. Agreeing about the price:(
      I love the doll but she is far too expensive for me....unfortunately.....as I really do like her *sigh*

      And those ankle boots! :D

    9. I've been lucky and been able to make a few sales lately, so I may be close to ordering Calliope!:D
      Over the next few months I should get just enough in from layaway to pay her off, but it's still so hard to press the ORDER button with that price tag!
      So hard to justify spending THAT much money on one doll when it could go into savings!!:sweat

      Has anyone on DoA ordered her yet?
       
      #9 midnitestar7, Sep 10, 2012
    10. Hmm - I like the outfit better than the doll. Maybe that's a good thing, given the price tag.

    11. Oh well done but I do understand about you not daring to actually hit 'ORDER' she really is just so expensive.
      And I would imagine that it would be hard for her to look 'right' in any other outfit but this one.....:lol:
       
      #11 Jane, Sep 10, 2012
    12. i've ordered her!
       
      #12 tsaritsa, May 31, 2014
    13. Please share when she arrives! I love her too but she is also way out of my price range. (I did manage to snag a Polyhymnia from the MPa while back, though! ) Congrats to you!

    14. she arrived yesterday, and she is - unsurprisingly - stunningly beautiful.

      i can't imagine that she will wear the long skirt very often. the leg tattoos are too beautiful to cover up!
