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. My little niece has been talking non-stop about BJD for the past few weeks. ^^

      Quoth her mother: "Why couldn't you have shown her Toys 'R Us, or Barbies.."

    2. My sister-in-law and one niece of mine have BJDs, of the more older porcelain kinds, not the asain resin ones. Definitely NOT my mom. I told her I wanted a MNF and of course had to tell her the price and she flipped her lid. So my mom definitely ISNT a fan *lol*

      It is nice to have a couple close family members sympathetic, and doll lovers too.

      But I am :)

    3. My god-daughter has a MNF Shiwoo and wants a MNF Ari to go with him... and while I wouldn't exactly says that he's "into BJDs", my husband does a have a doll of his own. (A CP Moon named Tez. 'Sort-of an action figure of his favorite City of Heroes character-)

    5. Well, my mom and I both love to make clothes for my dolls and we love to pose them. So I kind of share that with her.
      But I wouldn't say that she really has a doll or that's her hobby.

    6. None of them!! >_<
      I live with horrible horrible males of the most abjectly doll-hating sort.

    7. My sister's got a big family (Shin here on boards) and my mom has BJD's as well, and quite a few.

    9. Only one. :) I'm credited with getting my cousin into BJDs. Though...she wasn't that interested in them at first I think, but now she's just as crazy over them as I am. When we're together, that's pratically the only thing we talk about.:sweat :aheartbea

      Aside from her...no one really. My immediate family tolerates it, and I think my mom may even be just a little bit interested in them, but the rest of my family absolutely detests me liking dolls. *_*

    10. My sibling - Djinn - and I are a dolly tagteam and were since the beginning of our BJD hobby; our first dolls came together, we share the doll family and their intricate story plot/relationships. XD So our website is one and the same.

    11. I would be thrilled if my boyfriend decided to join somehow. ^^; He does seem to think it's a bit entertaining to go around in the stores at least...

      But my family... Nah, would never happen. ^^;

    12. My dad's half-heartedly thinking about making a Spock doll... He wants to create the ultimate geekdom.... BJDs AND Trekkies. :sweat

      My friend Caroline loves them, though. She kind of sort of counts as family, right? She'd save up for one... But she kind of has this spending problem XDD

    13. My mom loves them I would like one if they wouldn't be so expensive. :aheartbea

      My grandmother loves them to and also makes them clothing some times!!! But she does have a hard time remembering they are boys! :sweat

      By boyfriend wants me to sell my Isao because he is limmited and he once saw what some one on eaby paid for one. He thinks all male dolls are gay and reaallllyy doesn't like them at all!:|

    15. My parents think they are a waste of money but my sister seems to be into them. She doesn't have a job so she couldn't actually buy one but she thinks they are really neat.

    16. That's just what we need :lol: Heck, its probably already out there anyway!
       
      #36 tomo, Apr 15, 2007
    17. I've avoided mentioning them to anyone in my family.... my mom might think they're cute, but would totally freak over the price!
       
      #37 SiMoNeLesS, Apr 15, 2007
    18. My mom, who has 4 BJDs in house & another on the way. At first she balked at the price, but Elf Ducan finally convinced her to get one. ;)

      As far as I can tell, my aunt, my male cousin, and his oldest daughter all think they're gorgeous, but aren't interested in actually one of their own.

    19. My older sister has 3 CP BJDs. She's actually the one who got me into them! I owe it all to her! XD

    20. My dad will happily interact with my dolls when I'm at home, and when I'm at college he sends letters not only to me, but to Arioc and Radriel as well. Right now I have them tacked up on my corkboard. XD But I'd be very very surprised if anyone in my family got more "into" dolls than that.
