Shopping Anubis doll café?

Jan 11, 2025

    1. Has anyone ever ordered dolls through Anubis doll café? They have one I'm interested in but I've never seen them discussed, and I'm a little unsure about the fact they claim shipping is to be paid only when the doll is ready to be sent.

      Do you have experience with them? If yes, how did things go, especially if you're located in Europe?

    2. I've just recently received a head through them and everything was fine! A few things to note-

      On my order the shipping charge was added when I ordered the head, the shipping was very reasonable and didn't get any extra added on when the head shipped. I assume they have a good idea of the size/weight of a single head so it can be calculated in advance in this case. Not sure what the process is if they need the doll in hand before they can calculate the shipping.

      They don't accept paypal, I paid through Stripe which I paid directly from my bank account. The downside of this is I could only pay in the requested Thai currency so had to pay my bank's currency conversion fee which I normally avoid with paypal.

      I had to pay customs (i'm in the UK) as they don't undervalue the item (it was declared as full USD price).

      Overall the service was good, I got order confirmation, shipping notification, the head was well packed and genuine. The down side was the extra costs, shipping, currency fee + customs bumped it up and made the head a bit expensive in the end.

    3. thank you so much for your breakdown of how things went!
      Customs are never fun, but they're unavoidable these days, and other intermediaries too won't underdeclare, so I've made my peace with it
       
    4. I've ordered from them a quite a few times. Communication is great! For me, one little downside is the shipping. It can be a bit expensive (I'm based in the US). I've had nothing but a great experience from them, so I'd definitely order from them again if other proxies don't list what I'm looking for.
