SoulDoll mini dolls Soulkids Discussion part 6

Thank you very much for your help and advice, then probably I will order with Alice`sThanks a lot!

 

I promised to post pics of the new lavender skin, but to be honest, I can't make my phone take decent pics of it, and the colours are wildly different on various screens / monitors, so I'm not particularly confident as to whether or not is this photo particularly useful...



The one on the left is Elfin in coral purple, and on the right we have Linzy in p.lavender blue. Both are very similar, cool and rich purples, coral purple is a semi shade darker and ever so slightly less saturated, p.lavender blue is lighter and more saturated, but by a miniscule margin. They're both very beautiful!

 

Gosh I just love purple resin so much (even though it eventually fades to like a light greyish purple usually), I can't wait to get mine They look absolutely gorgeous.

I'm crossing my fingers mine will ship any day now as they told me the updated estimate was end of Feb last time I asked.

I'm really regretting not getting the Angel Persephone in lavender too, but I know I shouldn't and don't need her.

 

Wow, congratulations, they are so gorgeous! A love their lavender skin. Is it was for a short time preorder? Now i can see only white and normal skin on their site. It s all sold out.
But thank you very much for share, they are so beautiful!

 

I can't be sure, but it might take longer if the package has to ship first to Denver Doll and then to you instead of directly from Souldoll. However, last I inquired about it, shipping was significantly cheaper ordering from Denver Doll than from Souldoll. (I didn't do it though, because Souldoll's event discounts weren't available through Denver Doll.)

I'm pretty sure Alice told me when I emailed about it that you still have to pay Souldoll's shipping even ordering through Alice, since it's still shipping directly from Korea... (in fact, I seem to remember Alice quoting me around $112 for shipping a Souldoll Vito boy. I'm sure shipping costs have fluctuated since then though, so I don't know what it would cost now.)

 

Ah yeah, I went to check now and indeed there's a note that says "Soul Doll shipping cost has been significantly increased due to pandemic impact, please contact us to check shipping cost before placing order." and dolls will ship directly from Korea to the recipient. Bummer! Shipping from Korea is always so expensive even for small stuff. Thanks for correcting me!

 

Thank you, I think you are right, I did not thought about it. Then, it is really better to order from Soul Doll directly. Thank you again for your help!

 

@Setsura I hope you'll get your girl soon!

@Dhaena yes, this resin color was a limited one for Souldoll's summer event (and I think one event before that, but I can't remember).

 

Thank you very much for answering! This color is really amazing. I am really happy for you, that you ordered in a right time! Your dolls are really beautiful Probably will be another preorder in future with this limited color, then I ll order too.

 

@neon_jellyfish : Thank you so much for the picture!!! It's definitely hard to tell the differences between all their lavender resins... I have the Serenity resin from the Charlotte Tarot release, and the Baby Pink Lavender Gray resin... and there's very minute color differences that are hard to capture on camera. So glad to see a little Elfin mermaid girl... I have only seen 1 or 2 of them online after their release!

 

@Dhaena you're very sweet, thank you!

@Dybbuk glad you liked it! The difference really is miniscule, yet somehow I feel like if they release another one, I'll give in and get another lavender beauty. Elfin is such a precious doll. I fell in love with her as soon as I saw her, and she turned my doll budgeting plans upside down, but it was more than worth it!

 

I emailed souldoll to ask what their shipping estimate would be for angel Persephone and they said she'd be finished around mid April! so just an fyi for anyone else who ordered her!
I got her with a faceup and in p. lavender so might make mine take longer than anyone who didn't get those choices

 

Are they from the same p.lavender event where they released Kyron?

 

No, this was the 2023 summer event, and the event sculpts were Linzy and Aspyn.

Edit: The girl with translucent hands is from 2022 summer event, and she is in coral purple, which is slightly different, but not to a degree that could be captured with my phone and my skills.

 

No problem! Also, if you want to save on shipping costs and don't mind stringing your own dolls, I would encourage you to ask Souldoll if they'd be willing to ship your doll unstrung. My sister saved quite a bit of money on shipping this way recently.

Or, if you live in the USA, it still might be worth inquiring from Denver Doll about their shipping prices and time frame for orders. It could be that the money saved on shipping could be worth a delay. I tried but couldn't locate the emails I exchanged with Denver Doll to be able to verify that event discounts aren't available when ordering through them, so now I wonder if perhaps I was confusing them with BJDivas lol. So this might be worth inquiring about as well!

 

Hi, Lizzie, thank you very much for your help! I m not so good in stringing, never did it before, but for people who can it s a really good option. You are so lucky to have sister in same hobby, I think it s really nice!
I live in Europe, Germany, but ordered from Denver Doll several times, it was more expensive for me, but I liked that they ship fast, save and I never had any problems. And also every time I wanted to order, I was not sure how fast its post company, and if I will understand everything there, somehow was more difficult to understand order system, than on the Denver site. But costs are higher, than to order directly from company. Also on SoulDoll I do not understand discount- coupons system, how to use them to get discount. But It s all little things, when I ll order, I ll just will write letter and ask direct there, how to do it. Anyway I have time a little bit more, cos I am saving for this doll, so need month probably more to organize everything before order.

 

@Dhaena So happy I could help! I'm kind of scared of stringing my dolls, so I probably won't be ordering any unstrung either, lol.
As for ordering from Souldoll, I've had very good luck with emailing them my questions. They've always answered everything and helped me out. Wishing you luck with your future order!

 

Thank you very very much! You are really kind! I will write here then, when I ll order. Yes about Souldoll, I also was good luck with e mailing them, in december was asking something about shipping payment. And they answered very kind and very fast, helped me out. Thank you one more time for your kindness and help, hope I will order soon

 

I totally forgot to share my Millie in this thread! She's in the lavender p. skin.

 

SoulDoll did not ship my doll at the end of February; I emailed them on Friday but have yet to receive a response. Hopefully soon!
