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. ah the one of is so lovey ,darn it dus not however mack wating fore the AE eney eseyer ^-^

      I dont really have eny plans yet...i dont think i will be abel to plan eniting till im certen i can bring him home
       
    2. Well it would be easier to make plans if I was certain he'd be arriving, I'm think more along the lines of what could I do if.... Does that make sense?

      How about a Reisner mini-game? What would you change about the default Reisner if you could?
       
    3. Aww, that is such a cute idea s2kitty! :) Nice to keep our minds off the wait. :shudder

      Hmm . . .
      I'd make it so his pants didn't have those drawstring tie things on the bottoms. Mind you, I do think they look very good with his outfit! But my Reisner (hopefully!) will be a modern boy, and he's such a strange size it would be nice if he could wear his default pants. ^^;

      Either that or I'd give him a red bushy mustache . . . *snicker*
       
    4. My SD10/F09 girl, Blacky is in love with Reisner. She swears his name is actually Norge and he is from Viking stock, so I suppose his grandpa could have had a red mustache!*_*

      If he sails into our port, I hope to start sewing for him and selling one offs for SD17 guys on the den.

      It's getting so close now. eep.

      And if I could change anything? I'd go for a shorter wig in deep dark brown. But he is actually lovely as he is so I probably won't change it.:love
       
    5. I hope those of us who applied for the pre-order will learn soon. The lottery is getting so close now! >_< It'd be such a load off my mind to know I got him from one of the shops instead of having to try at the lotto.
       
    6. so is anyone ordering him from the site? Is it actually possible? $1,400... i really like him but i might have to pass on this one. The tag is too big. *sigh* volks always do this to me, everytime i want a doll they release it when i don't have the money but when i do they are all sold out.

      I wonder how much would he be on the second hand market. I'll pass this time, i'm aiming to bring El and Shine home.
       

    7. Me too, I'm getting all twitchy here. :shudder :lol: Kerbey Lane said they'd probably know "early" this week . . . and there are only two days until the lottery, so we should find out VERY soon! I'm hoping I'll find a message in my inbox when I come home from work this evening . . .

      *crosses fingers for us all*
       
    8. I wish I had the money for him, I really do. But with so many cute dolls at this one time and such a high price tag. Thered be no way I could afford him and Suiseiseki. T^T But I do hope alot of you do get him so I can see lovely pictures of him <3 So much good luck everyone, he is a stud!!!!!
       
    9. While I don't have high hopes right now, I'm really crossing my fingers that We Love Dolls is going to get him and do layaways still, because really that is the only way I'd be able to bring him home. I'm trying to sell things left and right, but yeah not really making any money at all.

      And in answer to my own question about what changes I'd make. I'd cut those drawstrings off his pants. I think they look silly and make me think of the Scarecrow from Wizard of Oz. So now he is a Scarecrow that wants to be a loony toon.

      :| He is not Yosemite Sam....
       
    10. Ok, now that I've seen the other pictures of Reisner without the eyepatch and a closer picture of his face, I can see why people are going gaga over him.

      Whoopee! My 15th post. Only 25 to go before I can enter the marketplace and see what's for sale & spend money.
       
    11. And by "people" do you mean me, mother dear? :aangel:

      Yeah, I'm aware he makes me goofy. La la la Reisner is love love.
       
    12. weird question but does anyone remember how long it takes after the volks usa lotto event to find out if you win? cos i wanna grab that senior delf as a comfort food if i dont win my reisner :{
       
    13. I have been following this thread, just because I was interested in snagging SD16/17 clothes for some of my taller boys (like Morgan) and was just interested in how tall Reisner would be, but...even if I had the money for for Reisner I would feel guilty if I got him at the expense of some of his passionate fans here! Good luck to all of you who want to get him home! :D
       
    14. Volks has stated that the winners of the Lottery will be E-Mail on May 14th;)

    15. May 14th!!! ACK. I got Williams for a friend in the UK in the last lottery at the LA store. It seems like they sent the congratulations to me within a day or two of the closing. Perhaps I am not remembering it correctly though, as it wasn't a doll for me that I was in deep love with. This waiting is soooo hard to take!
       
    16. :o Omgomgomgomg!!! I Got Him!!!! :: dancing in dizzying circles:: I just got my e-mail from Kerbey Lane!!!!!
       
    17. Congrats. I wish I'd hear from We Love Dolls. :(
       
    18. If Volks let Kerbey Lane know today, they have to let WLD know today or tomorrow! We should all have our e-mails soon!
       
    19. Congrats, Lady Samhainne! :) You must have been quick!

      I didn't get Reisner from Kerbey Lane, even though I emailed an hour and a half after the email was sent out. :( But I'm not suprised, since they only got six, and three of those went to employees. If I'd known my chances were THAT low, only three available instead of the usual five or six, I wouldn't have even gotten my hopes up, lol.

      Now to try for the lottery. :shudder Darn my bad luck and $100+ in sales tax! Oh well, worst comes to worst there's always Yahoo Japan . . . and my Luna should be shipping soon, and selling her should help. I WILL bring him home! :)

      Good luck to all of you who tried WLD, I hope everyone hears back from them soon! :daisy

      p.s. Rei, you're such a sweetie. :aangel: But if you want him, go for him! :D If you just want his clothes even I'm sure there will be people who aren't into the pirate look. ^_~
       
    20. Congratulations Lady Samhainne:fangirl: I'm so happy for you Sweetie;)

      Well, I didn't get Reisner through Kerbey Lane, but I just got an E-Mail from WLD saying my name is at the Cut off, and I will have first right of refusal on Reisner should anyone Cancel thier order for him.....

      But the Greatest of Luck to everyone wating to hear from WLDs:D I got the E-Mail from them about 10 mins ago:sweat
