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.

Narae/Narin 43/44cm Mini Discussion Part 7

Apr 9, 2018

    1. No notice for me either, I did have my girl on a short layaway as well, either way it will be the last of my Narae in my collection.
       
    2. I wonder if it's resin color rather than order date that's determining the shipping order. I ordered the first day, and paid in full, but my name's not on the list yet. So, I'm trying very hard to be patient. Sigh.
       
    3. Hmm, no layaway for me, normal skin resin, and no notice yet. I fear it might just be kinda random.
       
    4. It may be rather random or he may be shipping simpler orders first. I ordered extra feet, hands, etc! I also wasn't very early in the ordering period. It doesn't matter to me. They will get here!
       
    5. oooh that's a good point, i also got two extra sets of hands and heel feet. but you're totally right, he'll get to us! it's really easy to get caught up in the excitement though, lol.
       
    6. According to the notice, he is hoping to have everything shipped by the end of this month. Either way, I think we should all have our dollies before Christmas. :)
       
    7. I'm not ready! I'm not ready! ( runs around with arms flailing like Kermit the Frog)
       
    8. There, there... It will be OK! Just open the boxes and admire the dolls! Then work on the things they need. I have never had a doll complain about waiting for their stuff!

    9. This is good timing for me - I'm going to have the best weather for making pretty Mori-style Winter clothing :)

      Good thing dolls don't mind waiting - nobody will be getting a faceup until next year when I buy supplies. But I really like blank faces, too!

    10. I got an email this morning that he'll be shipping my Narae! I did place a simple order, nothing extra just a head and body. Also I ordered normal skin.

      EMS is thankfully quite quick so she should arrive next week. Only I'm going to be hit hard I think by import costs. *_*
       
    11. Oh gosh @ATBryant that's so exciting! Congrats! Hopefully the import costs aren't too high.
       
    12. I asked Bimong a while ago not to send mine with the first shipment because I thought he'd send them out much sooner and I wasn't going to be home for a while. Now I'm going to be home in two days, oops!:lol:
      While I wait I'm going to live vicariously through everyone else's arrivals. I can't wait to see them, you guys! :D
       
    13. You could send him a message and say you are home now and he can ship when it is convenient.
       
    14. Yes, I did that actually! But I don't expect it to be shipped until he makes the next shipment.
       
    15. I'm so excited, I got my email yesterday!! :dance I got the 401 head with the new body in normal skin, and it'll be my first narae. I can't wait to see her in person.
       
    16. I've been featuring my first Narae in a short photo story. She was just my second BJD, and is an evenly yellowed 'golden beige' from 2005...

    17. It seems he's gotten a lot of normal skin orders from the factory, but in the images he posted to instagram show some tans as well. Still, I think I'll be waiting a while despite ordering early on, since I have a light tan and an oriental skin doll in my order. =__= The wait until now was fine, but now that some orders are starting to ship, I'm getting impatient. xD
       
    18. It would awesome if my Narin arrives just in time for Christmas! :XD: I’m very curious about how the pinky white skin looks like.
       
    19. Anyone from else from Canada expecting a package from Bimong??? I just got an email from him that my Narae body is being returned to him due to Canada Post being on strike. :pout::pout::pout:
       
    20. @cz.girl.347 - Oh, no! I am so sorry!

      I didn't think the strike would cause mail to be returned - only to be delayed. That is just awful! But Bimong is a really kind person, and if he can do anything to help, I know he will.

      @0javi0 - You ordered pinky white skin, too? It seems like there were more orders for normal or tan skin, but I'm waiting for a pink white body and lots of heads. I've only seen a few photos, but it looks like a lovely color.

      @Yenna - I know how you feel! I was doing so well, perfectly content to wait, and now that they are shipping I keep checking for an email. I ordered on the very first day, but then I added some things later, so I expect mine will be one the last ones.
