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.

You're gifted $1000. What do you buy?

Feb 15, 2018

    1. Preorder Rosen Garden's new tiny guy whenever he's ready and probably spend the rest on crafting materials, like mohair, leather, fabrics, msc, cool trinkets I think could be used in doll projects "some day", etc. :lol:

    2. Updating this! If I were gifted $1k, my new buying goals would be faceups for Phoebe, Marcie, and Aiyu, and a body for my incoming No. 9 Babel Shu.

    3. So right now, if I was gifted $1000 I’d put it towards my mortgage, but that’s not a fun dolly answer!

      the dolly answer is that I’d spend $500 on an Iplehouse Claude secondhand, so that the head can go to Mercy, and the body can go to Oriel. Then I’d spend $342 on a supia Ballerina body for Azrael, because she really needs a body and she does not currently fit the spare body she’s borrowing right now. The remaining $158 I’d spend on getting more clothes for the dolls I currently have. I’d really like a big princessy dress that fits Do Dolls Dream girls for Aura when she comes in…

    4. I actually was just gifted $1000 from my grandmother a few weeks ago.
      All I got doll-wise was a chair and some jewelry to incorporate into her outfit.

      (With the rest of it, I got some new storage furniture, a rock tumbler, an excellent air purifier and took my household to the zoo today)

    5. Let’s see. If I was ‘forced’ ( and admittedly, there would be little…ok, none, no force whatsoever involved) to spend $1,000 on a doll, I’d get faceups for my floating IZE D and ATS Sins G heads, and spend the rest on a nice 75cm body or two.

      EDIT: Alternatively, I’d blow it all on a YiCen.

    6. That's tough, do I spend the whole $1,000 on one doll thing or do I break it up into smaller amounts for many doll things hmm... I think if I really had to spend the whole $1,000 and the ideal situation came together, I'd get a Luts Delf Dambi. Dream boy. But realistically, I do have some girls that could use faceups and better wigs so I'd probably split the money up.

    7. With $1000, I would get Ringdoll Xie Lian if I wanted to spend it all in one place.
      Otherwise I think it would be nice to buy all the gorgeous outfits in my wishlist!:D

    8. With a $1000 I would commission someone to make my Dorian’s Dragon Age Inquisition outfit and with the rest of the money, get some new face ups for my older dolls.

    9. I'd automatically be on Luts ordering two that are on my wishlist and front the rest that is needed, lol.

    10. I am very jealous of your Dragon Age doll collection, as someone who is gradually working through crafting her own collection of Dragon Age characters as dolls.

    11. I would order a Volks FCS doll, partly for the doll (I already have one in mind) and partly to have that FCS experience. In fact, my birthday this year is a milestone year... so I might gift myself just that.

    12. Clothes...lots...and lots...of clothes. Some eyes and wigs too.

    14. Omg I’m actually in this situation and I can’t even decide!!! I really want a girl from fan ff but I need to actually get a body for my floating R&R Blina. I also have way too many other doll plans! I can’t make up my mind!

    15. Oh man! Do I put it away for future doll preorders/grails popping up or spend it all on clothing, wigs, and accessories for my current dolls? Much to think about!

      As of now I would probably put it towards preordering the new FFXIV DD twins ^^

    16. I would probably get a SD or a nice centaur body like the FairyLine one:) Life would be better if I was rich... the ringdolls are also nice. Imagine being a rich heiress reading danmei novels all day, playing with handsome dolls....:pout:

    17. I'd finish paying off this layaway on a Loong Soul body, and then spend the rest getting a new proper body for my Impldoll Joshua. If anything left over, it'd go towards the dye jobs I need to get done (or the faceups if I manage to psyche myself into doing the dye jobs at home).

    18. wish i could say my next doll, but i haven't found the right one for that yet - i have a specific idea in mind, and have yet to come across that "bingo" moment for him yet!

      soooo... i guess Oliver's getting a lot of new clothes and accessories, and a few new sets of hands!

    19. These plans have changed very slightly... but also DV just posted that future naga release. So he would definitely get my money right now if i had it to spare, plus the next two dolls on my priority list... and i haven't even gotten to the (still relevant) ones in my previous post!

      (i really hope that naga isn't limited :sigh)
       
    20. As of right now I would buy a couple of bodies I need (one 1/3 and one 1/4 size) and with anything remaining I would get shoes, eyes, some specific items of clothes and accessories and some nice quality fibers for wigs. Alternatively, if I happened to find any of the dolls/heads that I've liked for a long time that can only be found second-hand it would be the best opportunity to get any of those:XD:
