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.

No More Dollshe From Iplehouse or Luts?

Feb 11, 2008

    1. I ordered on 13th March and still no word! *_*
      This is the last time I order from Luts. Why is it taking so long for them to ship a doll they have ready in stock?!

    2. I don't think they had them in stock. I think they took so many orders as Dollshe said, and now dolls have to be made. And as Dollshe busy a lot right now with other tings, we have to wait. I ordered mine 5th of March and probably it will arrive around June

    3. I think you misunderstood. Luts meant that the quantities they listed on their site are the quantities that Dollshe had allocated to produced for Luts at the time of the decision to discontinue the older versions of the existing line. Luts does not have the dolls laying around in their warehouse. (This is the same situation as Ipleshouse.)

      Since a lot of people who were waiting (like myself) decided to buy when they announced the phase-out, Dollshe is swamped with orders. It is taking longer than before for them to fill all the orders. It will be at least a two months wait.

      Mine was confirmed on March 4th and I am still waiting.


      My work gets so crazy and busy, I always lose the track of time (which is good when you are waiting for a doll. Besides my other boys are keeping my company.)

    4. So random but I thought I would share! my SA Saint arrived at my house on monday from iplehouse?
      I'm on holidays at the moment and had no idea it had even been shipped to me!!
      I only found out a few hours before it arrived at my house!
      because I randomly decided to check on my order status!
      haha so I'm lucky I decided to check it and make sure someone was home when he arrived!
      the bad news for me is I'm still on holidays and I wont be able to see my pretty boy for another 5 days!!

      I'm pretty sure everyone's dolls should be shipping out soon? I hope so!

    5. I got my tan SA Saint from Iplehouse last week. Ordered him on Feb 19. He's an amazingly dark color. I emailed IH and they said he's definitely a Dollshe resin. Apparently the new tan that Dollshe is doing.

      Here are some pics of him:

    7. Marilyn in NY: that's a very beautiful and rich tan! Oh, now I'm excited to see what the new resins will look like. :)

    11. Holy crap, he looks like coffee. xD
       
      #211 SchizoCheese, Apr 25, 2008
    12. Marilyn in NY: WOW He's amazing! But I didnn't know Iplehouse offered a tanned option o.o I thought it was just normal or white skin XD? Which did you order?

      I hope they're not sending tanned ones out to people who ordered other colours, I'm terrified of the damage so seemingly easy to do to tan resin >.o;

      He sure is a beauty though ^_^ Reeeeeally dark <3

    14. They did offer a tan version --- in the pics it was the much lighter tan. And that's the one I ordered. But I do lilke this guy -- just need to figure out a faceup for him --will be difficult I think.
       
      #214 Marilyn in NY, Apr 26, 2008
    15. I would add that his body is very nicely strung etc. I don't have any other Dollshe doll here right now (my only Hound is out for restringing, wiring and sueding) but this guy can stand on his own and pose really well, unlike my Tensiya Hound who was floppy as all get out.

      So I"m wondering if this is a new Dollshe body? Can anyone tell from my photos if it's the same as the old ones?
       
      #215 Marilyn in NY, Apr 26, 2008
    16. It looks like the old body. Your new guy is fantastic! I can't get over his warm tones.

      (Your boy is almost done btw. ;))

    17. He is so beautiful in that chocolatety color. Have to say I love love love him!

    18. Oh, gods. Not again. Not again with the discontinuing...

      I only got into dolls last summer, and being young I've had trouble getting the money. I'm saving up for my first boy just now. My second was to be an SA Saint... and later, I was going to get a Bernard. No other sculpt will do, either... I've no experience with faceplates, but here's to hoping they look REALLY good.

      I'm just really quite mad because SoulDoll did the same thing. I was completely in love with two of their dolls... and, yeah.

      Now I'm even more incredibly terrified that every doll I want will be discontinued before I can get one... and I'm not in a position where I can just get money, either, it'll take a long time for me to save up.

      *sigh* TL;DR, and with a few too many ellipsises, but this annoys me!

    19. Oh wow, that tan color really makes me happy. Like... REALLY REALLY happy. Like, dancing in my chair happy. 8D

      Thank you so much for posting pics Marilyn! I am planning on getting a tanned Saint as soon as they release them with the new bodies. So happy to see that this delicious color is what I'll be getting!!! :drool

      PS: red rosin, high five for Van!!!!!! Please post the ever living snot outta him when he gets here. If you ever need to spam for spam's sake, my PM box is always open. I never tire of seeing a Van ;)

    20. nakitama - Heehee... sure thing! As long as I don't screw up on my first tan resin faceup, there will be tan Van Spam, LOL! ;)

      Laela - Don't give up! :) I'm sure the new SA Saints will be just as yummy as the originals. If not, there's bound to be a Saint/Souldoll in the Marketplace at some point. ;) Want to Buy posts are a great way to find those dolls too. *hugs & luck* :clover
