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.

The Narae/Narin 43/44cm FAQS

Jan 28, 2007

Page 3 of 7
    1. Hello, I appologize if this is answered elsewhere, but do Naraes (43cm in particular) come fully assembled with eyes already in them? I wanted to order one with make-up and fully assembled since I do not want to risk messing her up!

    2. Yep! They're usually just random, but sometimes, if you have a specific color in mind, they'll put them in if they have it. They also come with really nice, soft fur wigs!

    3. Yes, she comes with eyes and a wig and even pretty undies and a bra! Here's a pic of my Juliette, as she stepped out the box:

      :) Naraes are all ready to love when you receive them!

    4. If you order a Narae from Dollfair with makeup you get a fully assembled doll with makeup, random wig, and random eyes. You don't get a choice of the eyes or wig, but in my custom faceup description I said I would prefer a medium eye color and a light wig and that seemed to work (may have been a coincidence).

      If you order a head alone from Dollfair with no faceup, you will probably get no eyes. But if you order a head alone with a faceup, you might get eyes.

      I don't know what you get if you order through Dollmore but they probably say in their listing.

    5. Hello again, hopefully this is an ok question for this part of the forum if not please let me know were to post it! I really love this Narae from the Bliss clothing line off of the Dollfair site (dark curly hair). I was wondering if she is open eyed and tanning skin (that is what she looks like to me)? Also, what would you say would be the closest Basic Line makeup to this lovely girls makeup? I am really close to saving up my money for one and I really love the way this one looks.

      Here is the link to a pic from the site since I am horrible with posting!

    6. I'd guess she is open eye tanning, though I'm not positive. If you wanted that faceup, just send it this picture and ask for the faceup to be similar to that. Good luck deciding. They are all so gorgeous that you can't go wrong and I love the tanning skin the best.

    7. I wonder if Bliss isn't going to be selling on Dollfair since its line creator is going to be selling clothes on her own site for this size doll? This is the link from a recent post here: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?t=124786 . She makes such beautiful clothes!

    8. Pookafey - re your earlier question. It looks more like a Basic Line faceup to me, or it could be a third-party or owner faceup?

      You have to describe what faceup you want and you can provide photos. But if they are owner photos you have to get the permission of the owner. If you want to see what the more expensive Kim Kyu Yun faceups are like, most of the doll pictures in the doll-sales sections of Dollfair.com have KKY faceups. Also the model "Reina" in the Tanya Style section (I believe she is a pinky white classic with KKY faceup).

    9. Hi guys!

      Can someone tell me please, am I supposed to get a confirmation that my face-up request was received? Or is that not necessary?

      Thank you, this thread is *very* helpful! :D

    10. Faireyangel -Well Catrina is quite busy right now. You could try PM'ing her (member Dollyholic) or you could find one of her posts - there is a link in her signature to her service forum Magical Dolls where she also answers questions regarding orders.

      LexehAnn - One exception to delivery time is if you order a default (no faceup) doll from Dollfair, and the have one in stock at their US store, you will get it very quickly.

    11. In my experience, if you don't hear anything back from them it probably means they did recieve it. If you ordered a face-up when you ordered your doll, they should already be waiting for your e-mail about it, and they would e-mail you if they hadn't recieved your instructions yet (I just remember an order being held off once because they were still waiting on someone to send face-up instructions, so I figure this is how it works- hope that makes sense! :sweat )

    12. hello, i am very new in really looking at narae and i think she's very pretty. are the dolls come with manicure and pedicure too or etc? i saw most of their picture having it, i wonder what option that people take to have those? is it either basic face up? KKY face up? or the sanding of seams? or is it actually just the owner who do it/commish it from other people instead?

      thank you in advance :love
       
      #52 yiesha, Jul 27, 2007
    13. No - they do not come with any makeup at all anywhere unless you pay for it. And since about 6 monthes ago (or more) they also don't have seam sanding unless you lay extra.

      I am not sure how you order body blushing and/or manicure since I don't think that choice is in the dropdown selections. I would guess that most of the body-blushed or manicured ones you see had that done by the owner or a commissioned artist.

      #53 Carolyn.S, Jul 27, 2007
    14. oh ou... i was expecting it would come with the KKY face up option since all his sample seems to have manicure too. but, it seems not then, ah? :sweat
      thank you so much carolyn ~
       
      #54 yiesha, Jul 27, 2007
    15. No the KKY faceup is the more expensive faceup option (Kim Kya Yun). Basic Line is the less expensive option. And default is no faceup.

      #55 Carolyn.S, Jul 27, 2007
    16. You can ask for body blushing and manicuring by KKY if you order a faceup by KKY.

      I handle these separately, by special request for an added fee. We can't do it a lot, because of artist workloads.. but we do have it done now and then.

    17. thank you carolyn and dollyholic for the answer :love

      um... btw.. do DoC girl clothings fit in Narae?
       
      #57 yiesha, Jul 28, 2007
    18. How noticeable are the seams on Narae if they are not sanded? I only have tiny sized dolls right now and I don't notice/am not bothered by the seams on them, but am not sure if this would be a bigger issues on a bigger doll?

    19. yeisha, poprox and cudna - you might get more people with answers for you if you ask in the regular Narae discussion thread.

      When I bought my Narae the seams were sanded, but others in the discussion thread would know. And re DOC clothes, I don't own a DOC but I bet someone in the discussion thread owns Narae and DOC. Re Narae head on Narin I don't know if anyone has done that, though they have done the opposite. And there are also a variety of Narin heads for Narins.

      This is the discussion thread for the mini Narin and Narae dolls - you'll also find photos in there.

    20. I have a non-sanded Narae and tbh, I don't notice the seams at all.
