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. Does anyone know when dollshe is going to open up their website or start selling the new versions?
       
    2. Any word on any of the "in stock but not in stock" Dollshe boys that were ordered in March getting them shipped yet? I ordered a BW Hound on March 16th from Luts. They're very sweet to respond, but they mentioned that they would ship the doll out as soon as they got it (when I, like others, was under the impression that they were still IN stock at Luts).

      I don't mind waiting so much as I mind getting lost in the shuffle of orders. That was the bigger worry.

      Now does that mean those of us who are waiting for dolls that were ordered around the time of the discontinuation are getting the new-mold boys or the old molds? And if it's the new molds.. how different will they be? I saw that milk choclate tan fellow a few pages back and he's lovely.
       
    3. I think we will get old molds. We bought old one and get them not sure about resin colour though. I was told yesterday dolls we be probably not shipped in May
       
    4. I know Luts is moving store locations in the middle of May, so it'll likely be until after that. Which is.. frustrating, but doable. Waited this long. What's another month?

      I'm still not sure on old mold vs. new mold. We did pay for old molds, but if Dollshe is converting all of their stuff to the new mold they're developing... I guess it's a toss up over which is easier for the company: using the old mold they've had, or do all the latest orders with the new stuff since that's the direction the company's going in anyway.

      A local friend has like.. 5 (6 now?) dollshe boys that are all the old mold. They're so gorgeous. The hands especially.. and from what I've read.. the hands have changed a little in the new molds.
       


    5. ARE YOU TRYING TO GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK?!!!!!!!!!!! Nobody said anything about getting the new bodies with orders from Luts. I want the nice veiny dollshe hands!!!!! :...(
       
    6. I ordered my Saint Feb 28th o_____o; Iplehouse is still saying he is in stage one of the making process (ie, not cast yet/casting).

      That's a little... bad. I mean, three months is the kind of wait I'd be expecting from Luts or Latidoll, but Iple and Dollshe have such good reputations for quick shipping as far as I've seen.

      But oh well x.x; More time to prepare I supose.

      btw, we WILL get the old dollshes. If we didn't it would be false advertising. Don't worry about it.
       


    7. Really? Really really really?!!!! *crushes you to death in a bear hug*!!!
      Thank you so much!!!! loveyouloveyouloveyou! :aheartbea:aheartbea:aheartbea I feel much better now knowing my beautiful veiny hands are safe! :)

      I ordered March 13th. Do you guys think the dolls will arrive by 14 June? I want Alphonse in time for a meet (on 15th June) so I can show him off to my bjd buddies :)
       

    8. Someone here told me July at the very least. Lets keep our fingers crossed. ^^

      .....But even when its up, I think I'll still hold a grudge against Dollshe forever for getting rid of Husky. Although thats not confirmed, I still feel better when I'm moaning about it. :( Poor Husky...
       
    9. From my understanding all old molds will be discontinued after May 31st. So those of you waiting on your orders should get the original versions.

      Website is still in progress (I understand there will be an English version)...

      So hopefully soon we'll hear more about the new....*everything*, but soon is all
      we can hope. ;)

      (This info was gathered from the Dollshe Cyworld site - recent post by Kim Kiyong...)
       
    10. I hope is just a rumor for discontinue the mold of Husky and Van T_T or the females.
       
    11. It probably means the old style/design - ie. the head as a whole. Perhaps those
      guys (or off-shoots of) will still be available, just in the new faceplate form - guess we
      can only hope until the site opens and it is all revealed.
       
    12. Please try to keep all of the talk about the upcoming/new Dollshe website and dolls in [thread=211174]this thread over here[/thread] and keep this thread focused on the discontinuation of dolls at other companies.

      Any discussion about dolls awaiting shipping from Iplehouse or Luts should be happening [thread=163037]over here[/thread] in Incoming Dolls.
       
    13. do you think i still have chances to find a dollshe ru?
       
    14. Anything ca be found second hand if you wait long enough and keep looking. Since Ru is a small doll you may want to ask about her in the Tiny subforum, fewer people will know about her in Larger Dolls.
