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.

Ringdoll Grown Dolls, thread #9

Jan 29, 2021

    1. Yep. Maybe if I'm lucky, someone will want to trade heads, but I truly doubt it. Perhaps someday I'll be able to get Dianxia, but for now, I'll just treasure my Scrap Collecting God.

    2. I’m kind of relieved they’re not selling the outfit separately. I’d feel compelled to buy it. :whee:

      Good to know! (So huge though, omg. I can barely lift the dude.)
       
    3. Have any of you guys had a doll on layaway directly with Ringdoll? How long did it take for them to reply back to you?
      I emailed them yesterday, and maybe this is just me being impatient, but they haven’t replied back.



      Thanks! Me too, for both lol
      It’s both a blessing and a curse that they decided to make these dolls back to back :lol:

    4. Man, they are heavy! Not sure why Ringdoll calls them 75cm. Maybe to not scare people. :XD:
       
    5. I've done two layaways with them. Sometimes they reply same day (depending on the time there), and sometimes it takes them a few days. I imagine they're probably getting a lot of messages right now, so I'd give it a few days. :)

    6. Thank you for the reply!
      That definitely makes my anxious self feel calm, as I was already overthinking :lol:
      It’ll be my first layaway with them, so I don't know what to expect yet, but hopefully everything goes smoothly :XD:
       
    7. You're welcome!
      Layaway with them has been pretty stress free for me. :)
      Order, send them an email with the order number and say you'd like to do layaway.
      They'll reply with the necessary info, down payment amount and PayPal account to send it to.
      Make the payment, let them know via the layaway email and they'll confirm it. Then rinse and repeat for the next payments (their max is 4 payments after the down payment).

    8. Awesome!
      Thank you so much!
      I did what you mentioned and they replied, they’re very nice too :dance
      Can’t wait to have Xie Lian soon :3nodding:
      I think I’ll start doing more layaways from now on (rip wallet :lol:)

    9. Does anyone know the current wait time for Ringdoll? I'm seriously considering Ashford 3.0, but last I knew it was ten months to a year wait.
       
    10. I tried to figure that out recently looking at the waiting list before I put in an order, but it’s hard to tell. I think the people who say they’ve waited the longest tend to be from one particular dealer. I just went through Cloversinging and crossed my fingers.

      (My other Ringdolls are the TGCF boys who arrived within 2 months, but they were also clearly pushing production fast for their full sets, so I’m sure this order will be longer for a blank doll.)
       
    11. You're welcome!
      And congratulations! I'm glad you were able to get him! :D
      I think I also need to do layaway more often lol

      I started a layaway mid-April this year and was told at the end of June that they were ready. This was for two blank, basic dolls.

    12. I think it's around 3 - 4 months. Maybe closer to 4 (because of the shipping, customs, etc)?
      I can tell you my last orders:
      I bought Zhao Yun last August and it arrived in my country just before Christmas (also meant that the post office was having holidays and overloads and thus the poor fella arrived home at the beginning of January).
      And before that, I bought Hua Cheng in June and Ringdoll shipped it in the middle of September. Because of the shipping, local post office's "fast" service, etc, it arrived at the beginning of October.
      I guess it hugely depends on where you live... but, anyway, I hope this helps.
      Btw, I am thinking of Ashford too (I was wondering to make him a vampire), however, I'm kinda broke now. *_*
       
    13. Thank you all so much for the info! It helps a lot!
       
    14. My order just shipped so I’m changing my answer. It only took 3 weeks. :aeyepop:

    16. Ohhh november!! Thanks! Good to know!
       
    17. Its what I saw in the net, but how it will be irl - idk. Also I knew about new XL, was announced to his b-day, but as u can see they released him but a bit later.
       
    18. Today was Zenitsu's birthday, so I did a small photoshoot with my BJD in the center. I originally planned on going out to do it, but it's over 100 F where I am, so I decided against it for now...

    19. Finally I decided to get prince Xie Lian!
      Now I have to wait patiently for him :sweat
      I was talking with a friend that now that there are two versions of Xie Lian, maybe Ringdoll will release a San Lang too:chibi... what do you think?

    20. I think he would make a fantastic vampire! I've been thinking of doing an elf-demon hybrid.
