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.

    1. Also recieved a shipping notice today. I actually feel a bit stressed about it, seeing as I will probably pick up another doll tomorrow. So many dolls, so little time...

    2. I really can't wait for the bodies to be alvailable again...I really want Tsubaki. How often do they do pre-ordering? Can I order Tsubaki head alone now and body later? I have never bought anything from them.

    3. carmen ... as they've only done the pre-ordering once that I know of, I'm not sure when they plan to reopen it. But you can purchase any of their heads separately; most people put them on DD bodies. Head choices here. Order info here. The transaction takes place through email. Shipping is flat rate, $20 EMS to US.

      They say 15 days to shipping after the order is confirmed ... clearly this pre-order has overwhelmed them.

      Everything about the process went smoothly and comfortably for me. I didn't feel I had to worry, and I was given no cause to worry.

    4. i have to say, i can't wait for the preorder for the bodies to open up again.... i regret not going for a white skinned tsubaki when it was open....

      i'm also contemplating getting one of the 69cm girl bodies from loongsoul for my hime head since i have given up on being able to get her a dddy body for her.... i know i'd have to mod the neck/neck hole to fit though.

    5. I've been trying very hard to resist getting another of these girls but I'm not having any luck. My Tsubaki is such a demure lass, she needs a Ryoko or grumpy Hime to shake things up. I wonder when the DDIII body will be available from Volks USA?

    7. I ordered on the 11th and haven't got mine. I'm not particularly worried, even though the window's been long expired. I suppose when I ordered I saw the estimate and thought 'Hmm, that's ambitious' :P

      I'm really not surprised that the demand exceeded their expectations. These dolls, now we're seeing them come in, are rather lovely. I hope they do catch up and start a new pre-order soon :)

    8. Taralphiel: Really..? that's wierd. I place my order arount the 24-25th and mine is on the way here.
      Did you order with face-up or anything else that might add time? mine was blank.
       
      #328 Ahiru, Sep 1, 2012
    9. I ordered on the 11th also and have not received a shipping notice; nothing special is required as I ordered the head blank. Needless to say I am getting really anxious since they seem to shipping somewhat out of order.

    10. I hope they do another preorder soon again too! I hope he releases an updated version head of Miyuki. But I am still patiently watching for everyones photos and comments until then. I think they were very overwhelmed too especially since I believe only one person makes these beautiful girls! I wouldn't care to wait as long as I knew my doll would be perfect in the end but I do wonder why they seem to be out of order too.

    11. Thank you so much for this helpful info. So I can only order from the unpainted heads and not the painted ones. Darn! I sure hope they do another body order soon!!!!
       
      #331 carmen171, Sep 3, 2012
    12. Carmen171> The painted heads are still on for preorder but you just can't order the body with it right now because the body is sold out. Just go to the website and look under preorder. All of the painted heads are there.

      Just wanted to also let everyone know that I have seen a posting on dannychoo.com of photos of another doll from Sqlabs someone recieved and it has had the painting service done to the body!! :) Its under figurefm "Sqlab body arrived".

    13. I'm the same. I ordered my Tsubaki blank. Hmm...wonder if I should e-mail them? I don't like coming across as nervous or pushy, but it has been a while...

    14. Thank you!!!!

    15. Thanks for the tip on the box opening!
      I must say I'm a bit confused since they seem to ship out so randomly. Mines still on the way. Haven't moved for 4 days (last update on the tracking says "Departure from outward office of exchange" August 30th) and I'm almost starting to worry. I've had ems packages reach me in that kind of time, so I wonder what's the hold-up.

    16. Just received my tracking number notice! I'm a happy camper! Even though I have NOTHING prepared for this girl, I'm happy she's on her way.

      I'll post here when I get her and make up a Box Opening :)
