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.

    2. I already made a thread about this but I'm asking again: is anybody going to Nagoya or Makuhari Dolpa? I'm planning to go and it would be nice to meet other Doa-members there!

    4. I was making a new discussion thread for this, and I'm afraid I've managed to lose Treelore and ponygery's replies while moving them! I'm so sorry - anyway, the new discussion thread is here. :daisy

    11. Hmm, it is really slow to load. Here it is in case anyone else is having problems viewing it:

      Ack, the Yo-SD's are $34 more than the last time around, but the big dolls aren't more expensive than they've been in the past. >.< I wonder why the difference?

    12. Naw, it's still Chinatsu. Tinatsu is just the way they write it in English :)

    15. Sorry, odd question, but when they say August 20th at 12:01 AM until August 23rd until 12:01 AM...what time-zone are they using? Would it be US Central? Help? ^^;

    16. Pacific Time. They're on the west coast it makes sense for them to go by that time.

    17. I've taken a bunch of orders today via phone and just want to say thanks to those that called me @ the shop, was great to actually speak with you all.

      Kerbey Lane's procedure for ordering new Volks Dolpha products -

      Our deadline to order is Wed Aug 16 - 9pm central time
      Orders will be emailed to Volks first thing Thursday morning. Volks has told me they will confirm our orders right away so I expect by Monday I'll know. Once I get confirmations I will notify everyone who ordered a doll to let them know if they have one. These will be don in the order I received them. If your doll is confirmed we will then require 20% non refundable deposit. Balance will be due in October when the dolls are scheduled to arrive.

      We charge Volks retail prices plus shipping & we ship UPS. Sales tax will be charged to anyone in Texas.

      I can be reached by email - [email protected] or [email protected] or PM. Also 512 452-7086 (KL) - I work Tuesday & Thursday 10 to 4:30 - Friday 10 - 12 - Saturday 10 - 2.

    19. Stalking the site just now. I really want the YO-SD girl (sob). I hope I can get her. She is so sweet and smiley looking.

    20. Question? I have never participated in a "entry ticket event." We weren't supposed to give our form of payment yet, right? I'm second guessing myself. I guessing we wait for a confirmation of some sort or that it is going to be a lottery & then we pay with confirmation of our order? Thanks!
