Things you said you wouldn't do but did anyway.

At one point, I never thought I would get a YO sized doll. I thought they were too childish and too much like baby dolls. Seems Soom managed to change my mind on that one as I now have four and would like to add at least one more if the right boy comes along.

 

Paying beaucoup $$$$$ for a Volks Limited ~sigh~ swore up & down, no no no, at least not the Fullset. Then Ryoma happened....

 

Buying a pre-order doll. XD Did it.

Also said I'd never go for an Anthro...

Then came Pixiu and Elizabeth.

RAAGH DOLLEHS! Y U COST SO MUCH MONEY!?

 

My problem is more that I say that I will do something, but then go back on my own word and change my mind XD. When I ordered my first doll, I was actually saving up to buy a DOT Ducan. He was the first sculpt I fell in love with, but when I decided while I was still saving my money that I wanted another, less expensive doll fro the same company (Kirill) I decided that I was impatient and wanted a doll now. So I bought Kirill just so I didn't have to wait for another $200. I also recently was saving for an SID Eva when I stumbled into a fantastic offer in the marketplace and goodbye savings... She'll still get to my house eventually, it might just be a while...

 

I never thought I'd purchase or be interested in the SD size due to how immense they are in comparison to what I started off with, 12cm was the initial size BJD I started the hobby with - but now 16cm tinies and SDs are my loves. I also never thought I'd want a vampire doll, complete with fangs - and now I have one who I love very much and think she looks more like a kitty or a wolf with teefies than the stereotypical vampire.

If I had told myself back when I started the BJD hobby that I'd at one point end up with lots of SD girls and a vampire, I think I would have looked at myself with disbelief But I'm glad I did venture out of what I thought were my limitations on purchases and love those dollies all the more.

 

Buying a limited. I always told myself I'd avoid them due to their low availability and high prices. Then I saw the SD sized Mo from Dollzone...

 

I said I would never buy a second - third - fourth doll but here they all are, I also told myself there would be no fifth but I think that will change next year. Another thing I said I wouldn't do was buy clothes and that I would make them all myself, turns out I'm very lazy and impatient when it comes to sewing.

 

Buy anymore.

I always, always, always say that I won't buy another. And now Luts Dion is staring me in the face, and Iple's got a Christmas event. Why do I even bother?

 

Let's see, I said I would never buy a doll on impulse again, I said I would stop buying heads until I got bodies for the ones I already had, I said I wouldn't buy any more dolls until I saved up at least $600 (I had to promise this to my mom, I didn't have a problem with buying dolls less than $600 before reaching $600), I said I would never get an MSD again after failing to bond with two in a row (dammit wishlist you betrayed me), I said I'd never get any dolls bigger than my 70cm guy (DAMMIT WISHLIST), aaaaand I said I would never go in debt over a doll. (The last one, thank god, has not happened in a very long time, and hopefully never will from now on.)

 

HEADS

Good grief. I forgot. Yeah, I have that problem- it's always, 'NO MORE HEADS TERU. I MEAN IT.' "Yes purse. I promise I won't... now why don't we have a quick browse through the marketplace to say farewell hm?"

 

I told myself I wouldn't fall in love with a second doll while waiting for my first... Well, I'm still waiting on my first and I've fallen for a number of others (at least all for my one OC).

Now I'm stuck wanting a doll that MoC has in stock (or getting her through the event starts in a week or so), and a doll that was is most likely not going to show up after EMS lost the monthly order for MoC that I was in.

 

I bought a PukiPuki, although I said that I would loose something this small and wouldn't dare to spend money on it. Haven't lost it (keeping her in my cabinet), so that fear was unwarranted!

And I once said that I'd never get a Volks SDGr body, because I wouldn't have use for it. Well... that was before I started selling my own dolls. It's funny how a business gives you all sorts of new reasons you don't need to buy pretty things .

 

Buying a limited anything...I ended up buying and eventually selling a limited head.
Unnecessary modding...now I'm all the way to the point where I'm trying to get into doing an extensive chest reduction/sanding.
Actually doing my own doll's face-up...swore I'd buy them all with company face-ups, or send them out to professional-ish face-up artists...but now I'm ordering them all without so I can do my own face-up on them.

 

...buy girl dolls. I wasn't into girls at all, and though I still adore my boys, I'm glad I now also enjoy owning girl dolls, makes for much more variety, especially in body types

 

I never wanted to buy an MSD since the are so tall. Now I own 3 of them, one on the way and to more to be ordered the next days...

 

Told myself I wouldn't buy any more dolls until I had bodies for my floating heads. Then discontinuations happened.

Told myself I wouldn't buy a doll unless I had 100% of the money on hand (i.e. no charging it to CCs). Then discontinuations happened. Gee, I'm seeing a pattern here!

 

I told myself that I would't let them invade my life until I graduated both levels of college that I'm on track for. But then I got Lilium () as a gift, I just got my Alberta, and now I looking for the opportunity to sneak in DC Austin

 

said no more dolls... two on order now, sigh!

 

I told my boyfriend that I will not buy the bigger dolls(sd) because he thinks they are creepy. I've already planned my next doll and he's 68cm..haha. My boyfriend doesn't know yet.
