Why did you sell your doll?

She was too small. It drove me crazy that she didn't have any weight to her.

 

I sold my Spinel head because I feel dislike the proportion between the head and body the head look a little bit big and the hand and arm are so small so I decide to sell Spinel head and keep the body for my Alain's head.

Second, I sold my Lati Red L because I feel very dislike when he stand with my other doll. His head is REALLY TOO SMALL a little bit big than MSD size doll and I can't take that, at first I try to bonding with him but can't help so... I sold him to other member on DOA.

Third, I sold my two SD13 bodies because I want money for the new body of my doll. My F38 boy want a bigger and taller body to fit his character and Sd13 isn't fit him and the one remain sd13 body is unuse for me so I sold it too.

 

I sold a whole lot.

At first..i wasn't completely sure why, i moved my msds into sd's and got an elfdoll lydia.

Soon i realised my other sd.. was bothering me because her head was way to big compared to her body.
Which is simply Anime anatomy... Which i now know i dislikes.
And is the reason i didn't bond to well with my previous dolls.

Now I'm selling, and thinking about selling..
because i have to many.

I can not have more then 3 sd's.
I just start neglecting one of the others and this bothers me, and i end up
selling them because i think someone els will give them more love then i can ^__^'

I also buy and sell dolls just to customize them aka make ooak painted dolls with cute outfits. I simply love doing that i guess XB.
But i simply can't keep them because i just don't have the money, space and energy for that

 

I'm selling my doll because she is too small and immature looking compared to my boy for the character I want.

 

I had a SOOM Beryl... I was having a lot of trouble bonding with her. And I was having trouble coping with her size and such. I battled a bit with whether or not to sell her. But then my sister found out she was pregnant and wanted me to come visit her and the family in Florida. That made the decision easy and I did sell her and stocked up on dog food and such... But...

I kind of regret it. I wish I still had her, but I put the money from her to really good use and got a few things for myself and the house and got to see my family...

 

I've currently sold/ am selling all the dolls I've had.
The first was an AA boy that I bought on a whim at a convention..just cause I wanted a doll. But I don't like the anime style much anymore with the big head and eyes.
Then I sold my Sard because I wasn't quite bonding with him and wanted a Beryl.
In finally got my Beryl and I'm not bonding with her either. I have no desire to play with her or take pictures of her. I'm finding the hooves to be a hassle; and I found the doll I really want and the only way to get funds for him is to sell what I have. x_x
Hopefully once I get him it will bring a stop to all of the continuous buying and selling.

 

I sold my Sha's head because he's too girly to me. I tried hard but could not bond with him. I just could not consider a person with that face a boy.

I sold my DZ Mo because I have strong size bias. I didn't pay enough attention to my tinies. I'll never buy tinies again.

I sold my SD13 boy body (but kept the head) because I want to find taller and leaner body for my boy which suits his character better. Volks offer good resin, but I don't like their body shapes.

 

I've sold a number now for various reasons. Right now though I'm trying to sell my dollzone felian becuase I've just come to the realization that she is simply too small for the character and also I've been focusing more on characters from a different story for my doll family so she just hasn't really gotten a lot of love as of recent. I usually change most of my dolls every couple of weeks, but I honestly I haven't changed her since September. She's just not doing anything for me anymore so I really think she just needs a more loving home.

 

They now have two new DOT body types for male and female and some new DOC body types. They are more posible ^_^

 

I've sold mine for various reasons. A few I sold because I wasn't playing with them much so it didn't make sense to keep them. I sold two or three for some extra cash when I needed it. I sold my Kid Delfs because Luts came out with a more poseable body type, so I wanted to replace their old bodies with something better (still waiting on one of them). I sold my minifee Lishe to upgrade her to an SD size with pointed ears, to better fit her character. Same with my minifee Shiwoo, Pip; his brother is an elf (Shiwoo elf sculpt) so I wanted an elf sculpt for his head, too. I plan on replacing him with a minifee woosoo elf on the activeline body eventually.

 

I don't want to get into the habit of selling off my dolls, either, but I finally decided to sell off my Unidoll Rio/Iplehouse body hybrid when I realized I just could not love him like I love my other 2 dolls. I think I've come to the conclusion that I don't like hybrids. Even though the proportion of head and body was good, and resin match wasn't bad, I think I prefer dolls that come in one piece (so to speak). I felt like he wasn't a real person--not a REAL person, but you know, like he didn't have any personality--because I had to put him together myself.

So, even though I started out in this hobby determined not to sell any of my dolls, I did so because it's all trial and error. You can't know how you're going to feel when you buy that doll from online and get him in front of you. I know now that I probably won't try making a hybrid again (except with my minimee guys) because I probably won't be able to click with them. But that's just my taste and experience. It all worked out nicely; body and head are sold to people who will be able to appreciate them a lot more than I did and I used the money I got from them to buy my SD Hye, who I've been in love with for awhile now.

 

I have put in sale my doll to save money for an eventual purchase (the Euclase) >_<

 

I sell because I often realize the actual doll doesn't look as pretty as the site photos. This happened with my DM Ipsae (my first doll head). It's nose was uneven and it didn't look at all like I imagined. Then there was my Latidoll Red M. I loved him, but he was a bit too chubby cheeked for me.
Then I got a Dollzone fox. I liked him from the angles it showed on the site, and that was it! Unfortunately there was a ton more angles to look at him from! Then I got a Latidoll Red Aida. I had gotten a few mods on him and he still didn't really speak to me. I might get him again someday, but as it was, he was really hard to bond with no faceup. And I hated the default. I wanted him to look softer.
Then I got a Reno Minimee, but he didn't really seem very "Reno" to me, so off he went!

My latest sale is my only regret. A Luts "The Duke" Lio. I loved him, but I needed the money for my dream doll, so...

So, I have went through a lot of dolls!

 

I've sold alot as I've learned what I like in a Ball Jointed Doll. :
1.) Luts Miyu : This one I regret....I sold her because I thought I liked having dolls with more joints. I hope eventually to get a new Miyu.
2.) Unoa Mocha: I sold her body but kept her head because the feet really bugged me. I plan on hybriding her with another body and dying that one to match.
3.) Soom Tanned Aren: I found her too small....I felt nervous handling her.
4.) Bobobie body: I didn't find it too my liking...too thick and plasticky
5.) Soom Mecha Angel body: too big for me,
6.) Dollzone Yuu, currently selling....also too big for me. If I buy any boys, they will be 60cm.

I'm finding for dolls, I prefer MSDs, mature MSDs and 60cm dolls.

 

I sold my first MSD.

Why? Because when I got her, I thought her body was ugly, she didn't pose very well, and over all I just didn't like the look of her overall in person. She wasn't what I wanted, so I ended up selling her after only having her two months.

 

I sold off my first SD boy's body because we just weren't in love anymore. His head is still here for future face-up practices and more though, but he'll stay a floating head for the indefinite future.

 

Hmm... let's see. I sold my puki Rose because she was too small for me and I didn't have time or patience to do much with her. I'm trying to sell my Tsubaki because after a year, I still don't do much with him and find I'm not such a big fan of the Volks MSD dolls.

 

I cannot even begin to count how many dolls I have sold. What it comes down is that there are a few I am in love with and when I get a new doll, if I don't feel that connection, I sell them. I may still like them, I may think they are pretty enough to hold on to for a few years, but when it comes down do it if I don't love them the way I love my Nono and Luna, than I sell them sooner or later. No point in having something worth that much money if it is not exactly what you wanted. ^_^

edit: I wanted to add that there have been times when I had to sell my dolls to pay for bills. A couple of the dolls I sold I am still in love with and when I have the money, I will buy them again. Sometimes life gets rough and you just have to do things you don't want to do. However, with that being said, when it comes down to it I will be living on the streets starving still clutching my Luna before I sell her =P

 

Ironically, the first doll I sold was the one I loved the most. My KD Cherry boy. I sold his body first and kept the head around for a while in hopes of tracking down a girl body to mod. However, things changed and his head was off next. I still kick myself for it to this day. He was my baby. T_T

I bought and sold a Lullaby Elf Lotti head within two weeks at one point, because it was an impulse buy and I really hadn't planned anything for it.

Lastly, I sold my first doll, my Bambicrony Kumi. I grew tired of her size and wanted something more mature and bigger. So she went up on the market with all of her things and I upgraded to an MNF Shushu on the new A-line body. So far so good with the new girl. :]

I think I really just prefer the bigger dolls as it appears I grow more attatched to them in a shorter amount of time. And I'm planning on getting my Cherry boy back by next month. I miss him so much!

 

I've sold too many dolls, I need to be more picky. >_< I can usually tell I'm going to end up selling a doll when I can't settle on a name or personality for them. I don't regret buying or selling any of them though, it was cool to have them for the time I did.

I sold MNF Shushu, Luts Miyu, and BC Blue Elf Kumi because of bonding issues and I saw a mold I loved more/worked for the character better.

Machina I just didn't bond with at all, which is weird because I really love robots. I think I would've liked her more as an SD.

Aren was too small for me, and I realized I would just get tired of the comedic size difference between a mature 1/6 and 1/3 bjd pair.

As for Abadon, I wanted him to be a character that ultimately wouldn't work with that mold. He was so pretty though! When I was taking pictures to sell him I almost decided to just keep him as a different character, but no, in the end that dude got sold.
