Dolls for Sale & Updates!

I mentioned in my previous blog post that I would write about my doll plans for 2019 and it's taken me until now to do just that.  I can't recall what my plans were last year and I'm being too lazy to search for my post, but I'm sure I would have said that I intended taking more photos out and about with dolls, without worrying about what strangers might think of me.  Did I do that?  No, not really, but it was more that I just didn't make the time to take dolls with me when I went out, rather than being embarrassed to be seen with them.....well that's my excuse!!!

So my plans for this year.  Well for a start I still have two dolls on pre-order from last year. One of them was ordered in September and the other early December, so hopefully the first of those will be shipping within the next couple of months.  Both are artist dolls, although from two different artists and most artists will say that the dolls take approximately 4 or 5 months to ship....so that gives me a while to go yet.  The first of these dolls that I've ordered is Eminor by Harucasting in South Korea.  She is an MSD sized girl and I've ordered her in a medium tan with a custom faceup by Blisslacosta from Russia.  (Photo by Blisslacosta/Harucasting):

And the second doll on order is called Ninon and she is from the French artist, Lillycat Dolls, she is also MSD and her skin colour is called Chocolate.  (Photo by Lillycat Dolls).

In the meantime, I come to the dolls that I mentioned in my last blog post, that I would be putting up for sale.  To be honest the task is such a daunting one that I really don't know where to start.  I have so many dolls to sell, photos to take, listings to type up, postage to work out, that I've been dragging my feet about making a start.  I have sold three dolls on Facebook, which should have encouraged me to keep at it, but still I am not getting anywhere and it is driving me to distraction.  I tried to make a separate page on here so that at the top of the page there would be a tab that you could click on to see what I'm selling, but for some reason I am unable to get that right, so that is my next task.  Anyway, I thought I'd just add some photos here and if you're interested in anything, please give me a shout!!  
And as I also said previously, I will be listing things on ebay too, so again,  I will add links here too once I have them.

Here is a collage of most of the dolls I'm selling.  I've not numbered them but if we say that number 1 is the photo on the top left and work across and down from left to right.....(if you click on the collage it should enlarge)....

I also have a bunch of Barbies and a Ken that have never been removed from their boxes, I have two of the first batch of the Made to Move Barbies, the blond and the dark skinned girl, plus the Asian girl, she has been removed from her box and posed.  I don't have her box.  I also have a couple of the Fashionista girls (numbers 24 and 33) and a Ken Fashionista (number 3).  All brand new in their boxes, although one of them, the dark skinned red head has some damage to the side of her box where the clear plastic front has come away from the cardboard backing.

I am also considering selling my Gotz 50th Anniversary set of dolls, they're by the artist Sylvia Natterer and represent the Gotz family.  The set is limited to 50 sets worldwide and they were released in the year 2000.  One of the dolls has some caving to her chest but apart from that, the dolls and their clothing are in good condition. 

And I have three other Sylvia Natterer dolls that are looking for new homes, one of those has never even been undressed.

If you're interested in any of the above dolls, or would like more information, please email me:

I'm open to offers on their prices, please don't be shy about making an offer, I can only say no, and I promise that I'll say it in the nicest possible way!!!  Unfortunately I'm not able to offer more than one month layaway at the moment. 

Thanks for reading, I hope you're all having a great week!

Dolls for Sale....Having a clear out!

Once again I'm feeling overwhelmed by the number of dolls living here and have decided to have a bit of a clear out.  I thought I'd offer these dolls here before putting them either on Den of Angels or Ebay.

I have two Volks Yosd sized kids up for sale.  Yosds are fully jointed BJDs, are approx 28cm tall, and made in Japan from resin.  Volks were the first company to offer resin ball jointed dolls and are very well known in the bjd world.  Volks Yosds were only ever available to purchase by people who attended their special events in Japan or by lottery at 'after events', so they were never available to purchase on-line for example.  You had to either attend the event or have someone else who was attending, purchase one for you.....and the numbers were limited.

The first is Volks Yosd Papi who is from March 2007, and has a custom faceup by myself.   She will come nude with a wig and eyes of my choice, not necessarily those in the photo below.  Volks dolls are extremely good quality and very well made.  This doll has a Volks box but it is not her own one, it actually belonged to another Volks doll that I sold, accidentally swapping out the two boxes!!  She is in very good condition and has her original Volks brass plate still attached to the back of her head plate.  Now on Den of Angels.

 

The next doll up for adoption is also a Volks Yosd, this time a boy called Neon who was released in March 2008.  He is also in very good condition with his Volks brass plate attached.  He too will come with random eyes and his default blond wig shown in the first photo below.  He comes in his own default box and I do believe I still have all his papers.  Neon is now SOLD.

 Up next is my Prima Dolly Ebony Blythe by the Takara Company in Japan.  A light tanned girl, she has been fully customised by myself, I have carved her mouth, nose and philtum.  She has been given new eyechips, sleep eyes, new pull rings, new eyelashes and her eyelids have been painted using bronze craft paint.  She has all new makeup with tiny freckles, using good quality artists pastels and sealed with Mr Super Clear Flat.  Her middle part black hair has been given a fringe/bangs.  She will come nude in a Takara Blythe box. 

And next we have the little Paola Reina girl that I recently gave a makeover.  I think she is called Carol.   I like her but I prefer the little Asian girl that I had first.  So this little girlie is up for grabs.  She has been thoroughly cleaned and her default hair removed.  I gave her a nice dark blond Leeke World wig which I cut into a chin length bob as I thought it suited her better.  I also removed her existing plastic eyes and replaced them with good quality oval flat backed blue glass eyes, which I think bring her more 'alive'.  She has also had her spridery default eyelashes replaced with some nice natural looking upper lashes.  She will travel to her new home nude.  Price £30 plus postage.  NOW SOLD - 07/07/15

 

Finally today, I have a former Euro Girl who some time ago I made into a Euro 'boy'!!!  This genderless vinyl doll was given a short haircut and her eyebrows were made a little more 'boyish'.  I've had this doll for several years but I have probably only dressed him twice!!  Poor lad is looking for a home where he'll get a bit of the attention he deserves!!  He will also travel nude to his new home, all ready for dressing as a boy!!!  As you can see he has the cutest little face with hazel inset eyes and two teeth showing in his slightly open mouth.  His back, just above his bottom, is a bit concave...I have no idea if this is normal as I can't remember him ever having been any different from when I got him new several years ago.  He also has faint staining on his upper arms on the inside from the outfit (s) came in.  Now on Ebay.com.

 I accept paypal only, personal payment/gift preferred.  My home is smoke free but I do have my little dogs but they don't play with my dolls.  All items will be packaged well and travel via certified mail.  I ship worldwide.  Please email me if you require further information or more photos, my email address is: dambuster0662@gmail.com

Thanks for looking!!!
