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.

    4. Q. How many new/or second hand dolls did you buy in your first year of doll collecting?
      In my first year of collecting (Dec '06-Dec '07) I purchased 3-4 dolls. I believe only one was new. The rest were second hand. Its been quite some time so my memory might not be correct on that.

      Q. Which year was the year you bought the most dolls?
      Most likely 2009 when I purchased 4 around the same time. Or at least 4.... I can only remember 4. I was working a good job and was in a place in my life where I had disposable income to do as I pleased. So I went a little hard on the doll purchases. Honestly though this backfired on me. Having a large influx of dolls come in at the same time ended up burning me out a bit and it slowly lead (amongst other things) to me leaving the hobby in 2011.

      Q. How many dolls are currently in your collection?
      Only 2. I left the hobby in 2011and took a 10+ year hiatus. So I am just getting back in the swing of things now.

      Q. How many dolls are you waiting for to arrive or paying off?
      At the moment none. The last doll I was waiting for arrived (well as of now in EST time zone) yesterday.

      Q. How many dolls or doll related items did you sell off or plan to sell off?
      I sold off all of my original collection. Some I regret selling. Others I am content with having sold. Some I am looking to purchase back eventually. As of right now I don't plan to sell off any dolls or related items.
       
    5. Q. How many new/or second hand dolls did you buy in your first year of doll collecting?
      -2 new full dolls and 1 new head, no 2nd hand purchases.

      Q. Which year was the year you bought the most dolls?
      -Probably 2020? I ended up doubling my collection one year, and sold most of that later on.

      Q. How many dolls are currently in your collection?
      -Around 15

      Q. How many dolls are you waiting for to arrive or paying off?
      -waiting for 3 dolls or bodies, though not sure if I keep all as I bought one for hybrid testing purposes and if he doesn't fin that specific head I have, he's out.

      Q. How many dolls or doll related items did you sell off or plan to sell off?
      -In all my hobby years? Too much to count if we also take clothes etc. into account. Dolls, heads and bodies, maybe 30? There are a couple that may have to pack their bags in the near future.

    7. Q. How many new/or second hand dolls did you buy in your first year of doll collecting?

      Just one! Latidoll Blue Rei + his sales photo outfit. I was a high school student at the time who made money babysitting and cooking so I couldn't exactly go buckwild on the spending.

      Q. Which year was the year you bought the most dolls?

      There were two years while I was in college where I bought three full dolls in one year. One year it was a Soom Chrom and two tinies from now-defunct companies, and one year I bought 2(!) Iplehouse Biancas and an Atelier Momoni tiny (I think?). I don't usually buy a lot of dolls in a year because I usually end up spending double the cost of the doll to buy it all of the accessories (I have uhhhh.... expensive tastes).

      Q. How many dolls are currently in your collection?

      Just one! Well, there's technically another doll in the house but I just haven't been able to style her in a way that makes me want to keep her.

      Q. How many dolls are you waiting for to arrive or paying off?

      None! :D I was waiting for a certain doll to go on sale again since the beginning of the year, but now that she's available... I realized I don't want her? I dunno. I'm really picky these days and usually find reasons not to buy a doll. Last doll that really made my heart pitter-patter was an iMda Amellia, my Leonie, and I still have her and I don't feel the same way about other dolls like I do about her, so... I don't really see the point of getting another doll unless I feel the same way.

      Q. How many dolls or doll related items did you sell off or plan to sell off?

      Um... A lot? Of full dolls, I've owned a Lati Blue Rei, a Luts Bory, defunct company YoSD-size boy, Soom Chrom, Soom Lami, 2x Iplehouse YID Bianca, Atelier Momoni melo*, Iplehouse YID Bliss. I've also had 5 or 6 heads that never got bodies. That's ones no longer with me. I also sold off their entire wardrobe and accessory package every time I decided to move on because my dolls almost never shared sizes or styles. I have one girl that I'm trying to sell, but kinda waffling on. She's still really stunning and I sometimes wonder if I can just get her new clothes and keep her around. I also originally intended my Amellia to look very different so um... I have a lot of things I need to sell of from that attempt too.
       
    8. 1. How many new/or second hand dolls did you buy in your first year of doll collecting?

      Four, all new. The first was technically the year before (2012) but it was near the end of December. She was a X-mas Kit Mini Gem from Soom and arrived in March of 2013, the same year as I ordered and received the next 3. (Dollmore Banji, Fairyland Real Puki, and DIM Honey)

      Q. Which year was the year you bought the most dolls?

      2015, I received 7 that year. I keep track of my dolls arrival dates, not order dates, so 1 may have been pre-ordered the year before.

      Q. How many dolls are currently in your collection?

      My current BJD collection is at 26, though I have and additional 3 I intend to sell. My current collection is mostly tinies and 4 MSDs.

      Q. How many dolls are you waiting for to arrive or paying off?

      I'm currently waiting on 4. Paris from Dream Valley, Lan Qi from Miracle Doll, Izzy from Dream Valley, and The Hanged Man from Dollzone. (Technically I'm also waiting on a tiny Hound from Dollshe, but since I ordered him in 2018, I doubt he'll ever exist:roll:)

      Q. How many dolls or doll related items did you sell off or plan to sell off?

      So far I've sold 8 full dolls and one face-plate. There are 3 full dolls and a floating head I'm planning to sell.

    18. Q. How many new/or second hand dolls did you buy in your first year of doll collecting?
      I bought zero, because it took me a bit more than a year to save for the doll and buy it. But if counting from the first doll, then one.
