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. Thanks a lot, I'll do that! :)
       
    2. That always makes me very sad, but I try to look at it that the people who will try to buy him in an auction are hopefully genuine and really wanting to bring him home. Then all those hopeful Reisners will end up with someone who really wants them for good and is determined to get them. :aheartbea
       
    3. I got so excited about finally getting Reisner's order to work...that I went ahead and ordered the YO boy too! I thought it would be nice for him and my Blacky (SD10 F09 girl) to have a son to climb the rigging and use his pea shooter on seagulls.

      But I REALLY need to stop now, she said quietly....
       
    4. Yes, many of us don't have credit cards and can't enter the lotteries or AE for not having that much cash all at once. I feel very lucky that I can get so many dolls I love from the aftermarket and Y!J and pay for them on layaway with my deputy service. Anyone who knows me also knows that I love and spoil all of my boys rotten! :love
       
    5. How do you pay for them on layaway through a deputy service? PM me if you don't want to talk about it here. :)
       
    6. Just put in my lottery application... now to wait. >_<
       
    7. Phooey. The jeweler can't evaluate or anything until Monday. :...(
       
    8. And, finally, another auction with pics has just gone up...

      http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e66421870

      Ah, be still my fluttering heart! :aheartbea :aheartbea :aheartbea :aheartbea :aheartbea

      (He is SOOOOO related to Cecile!! :love )

      Kinda frustrated that despite there having been 22 Reisners up on Y!JA so far, there's been only 4 with pics! (And two of those were pics of the display model, not in the box.) Geez, even the YoSD auctions have had better odds than that.

      (Yes, I counted the number of auctions... and? :sweat :lol: )

      ETA: Actually, I know this is sad, but I'm holding out for the Y!JA seller 'applezaemon' to get Reisner.. he may be a scalper, but lordy, he takes the best 'in box' pics of Volks dolls!)
       
    9. What? Are you serious? O____O Crap...that's not good.
       
    10. True....even though it's sad, sometimes YJ is the only way to go for some people. It does give them a chance to get their dream doll. Still kind of sucks that people are taking advantage of that though. :|
       
    11. yeah they take the money so you cant like >_> win the doll and not have the money to pay...
       
    12. So they will actually be keeping the money hostage until the 14th? I thought they said they wouldn't charge until they announce the winners, but the money is out of my account.
       
    13. first congrats to all the ppl who brought him

      tho i'm quite fustrated that 22 are up for sale already. I want him but seriously don't have the money at the moment. Did some ppl went to buy him solely to sell on the 2nd hand market?

      Tho luv more pics, he's gorgeous ^^ he looks fab with or without the eyepatch *sigh*
       
    14. thanks to my super kined american flat mate iv got my loterrey aplication in ^-^ *croses fingers*
       
    15. WHY did I just get an email from Volks saying

      "Thank you again for your order from VOLKS USA.

      The following items have been shipped to:
      (***my name and address***)

      SD17B Reisner dolpa17reisner 1 1408.00 Please choose the desired Sato-gaeri Service= None
      (Shipped)

      This completes your order. Thank you for shopping with us."

      ????????????????????????

      I clicked on a link in the email that took me to my Reisner order and it says:

      Order Status:Shipped.


      I AM SO CONFUSED. They clearly stated that all winners would be contacted on the 14th. Are the rest of you receiving emails like mine?

      And, no, this is NOT the email they sent me immediately after I placed my order (that one said it was "confirming my recent order")

      Haha, I'm not even excited by this... just confused.
       
    16. My daughter says that we are all on "Dolpa Survivor" mode now...and we have to meet in these chat rooms till the 14th...trying not to eat each other or go insane. They should do a reality show with us....
       
    17. Um this really worries me. I thought we all could enter in the lottery until Monday? If they are already shipping is this first come / first serve as well?!? :...(

      Dude, I can not catch a break. :(
       
    18. I know... I mean, don't get me wrong ~ If I have gotten one, I'm THRILLED ~ but it's definitely doesn't sound in accordance to THEIR OWN rules and conditions. Doesn't seem fair. But I mean, they are still for sale on the site and all... I just don't know what to think. This email boggled my poor mind. *_*

      I really hope you can work out a way to get one.
       
    19. Cassiel Thank you so much sweetie, You really are the Best;).... I can't believe how Gorgeous Reisner is in Person:love OMG I still can't believe I'm getting him:D
      ~Anthony
       
    20. to tide everyone over while we try to figure out what the heck VolksUSA are up to.. :sweat

      http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/97182508
      (Just went up.)
      Ahh, he looks like he's staring right at us. *melts into a little puddle* :aheartbea :aheartbea

      (Anthony, happy to be of service, believe me! :D I have an entry in the VolksUSA lottery thanks to a kind friend, so keep your fingers crossed for me that I get him too. ;) Otherwise I will be repeatedly hassling you for pics, heh!)
