What did you order? a Doll Chateau Event doll Larry When did you order? March 29th, 2014 How easy was it to pay? Very easy, I did a 4 month Layaway paid with Paypal How long did it take to ship? he arrived at DDE 3 months after ordering and they shipped the same day I paid off the layaway Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Yes it definitely was. Did the item look like the sales pictures? IMO he was even cuter IRL Were you satisfied with the product? Not with the original doll (it had the magnets installed backwards so the antenna wouldn't work properly and it had a deep gash on his chest) however that was Doll Chateau's mistake not DDE's and they were wonderful to work with, I sent them pictures of the damage and they sent me a perfect replacement doll within the week and a pre-paid shipping label for sending back the other doll (and it's lovely being able to call the shop and talk to them too!)
Bit late in this feedback - sorry. I ordered for the Christmas event from Doll Chateau. While I have purchased 5 other dolls through DDE, all were done with layaways I managed using money orders. This time I used paypal for the first time as a layaway device, and I made so many mistakes it was like I had sent my brain on vacation. The ladies at DDE were patient, even cheerful, despite my temporary dementia. I was grateful for the human touch, if I had been dealing with a less personal shop, things would not have gone well, and I would've messed up my reputation as a buyer, not to mention I may have missed the opportunity to own not only Alma and Agatha, but the charming, strange little Nehemie, (who I know is off-topic). Am I pleased? Yes! Would I buy from them again? Happily!

Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Yes. Did the item look like the sales pictures? Yes. Were you satisfied with the product? Exceptionally happy with my product. Can't thank them enough for my first BJD!
I have purchased many dolls from Denver Dolls. Every purchase has been a positive experience. They are always prompt to respond to any inquiries and I really appreciate their opportunity to purchase on layaway. I highly recommend Denver Dolls.
What did you order? DearMine Lupy When did you order? August 18, 2015 How easy was it to pay? Easily enough-- I was beginning to panic because I had not gotten a Paypal invoice until Thursday. She was the only one in stock, and I'm not sure how their website works factoring stock, so I hoped that I had gotten her! How long did it take to ship? Lupy was in stock and in the way I'd wanted her in, so as soon as I paid Thursday, she was sent out that afternoon and arrived to me on Saturday! Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Yes. There are a couple of tiny flaws in her faceup that I do not mind; a speck of fuzz on her chin and a run in the sealant by her left head fins. They even sent a super adorable folder! Did the item look like the sales pictures? No. It's 100% cuter! (Real answer is 'yes' ) Were you satisfied with the product? I am honestly pretty over the moon with my Lupy.

What did you order? Fairyland Steam Age Aqua Rin Full Set When did you order? August 2014 How was the communication? Excellent. How easy was it to pay? Very easy How long did it take to ship? December 2015 Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? No. I have taken so long to post because there were issues being resolved with Fairyland. While Fairyland was terrible and rude, Denver Doll was great and always answered my emails quickly and did everything they could to help resolve the issues. At one point communication broke down between the three of us, but eventually (9 months later) everything has been as resolved as it's going to get. Did the item look like the sales pictures? No. Not Denver Doll's fault. Were you satisfied with the product? No. But I was mostly satisfied with how Denver Doll handled the situation.
* What did you order? Eye putty and eyelash glue. * When did you order? November 2015 * How was the communication? I got an automated confirmation and then an invoice with shipping added, and another automated message when the order shipped. Pretty standard communication for a small-ish online order. * How easy was it to pay? PayPal. PayPal is so easy it’s horrible. * How long did it take to ship? It shipped two days after I ordered, not bad at all. * Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? The price for the eye putty was a little steep for the amount you get, but so far it seems to be good quality and it’s not like you need that much. It has very little odor, is a neutral color and isn’t greasy, sticky or stringy which are all important things to me and all seem difficult to find in one product as I've tried about fifty billion different kinds of pliant things in my quest for the ultimate eyeball-sticker-inner. We’ll see how it holds up to time, but right now I’m pleased with it. The eye putty is Leeke World brand. The glue I was just curious about, it seems to be water-based craft glue like Aleene’s or Elmer’s only a little less runny. It was actually worth it for the squishy refillable container which has a very fine tip and a rubber stopper at the other end so you can put your own glue in it after it runs out. You can hold it like a pen which is cool The glue is also from Leeke World. * Did the item look like the sales pictures? Yes, photos were accurate although it’s hard to tell the scale of the eye putty jars. * Were you satisfied with the product? Yes! * If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? N/A * Would you order from this company again? They seem like a reliable company and I'll be placing an order with them again soon for a doll head. I usually like the Mack's silicone stuff for eye putty but since some of the new eyes are silicone, I had to find an alternative, the product they sell fits the bill and the service was good. (Edit: I'm also not 1000% sure about the non-damaging-to-silicone-eyes idea, I could be totally wrong about that so I thought I'd update this. Research has led to conflicting conclusions. The One True Putty search continues, but in a pinch this stuff isn't the most terrible thing I've ever used.)
What did you order? Dollmore Apron Blouse for MSD When did you order? 03 January 2016 How was the communication?

One day (04 January 2016) Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Yes Did the item look like the sales pictures? Yes Were you satisfied with the product?

Recently I wanted to buy a pair of high heel feet and I call them and ask them the size of the feet and instead of them just placing me on hold I was told I would have to find out from resinsoul which I tried to for days but because of where the company is located and the language barrier I have still not found out. All it would have taken a couple of minutes and they could have measured. To me that was poor customer service. I have had problems from them in the past with ELFDOLL orders and that is I believe why Elfdoll decided to not do business w/ them any more. I hate to bad mouth anyone but my experiences with DDE have been less than enjoyable as a lot of you have had ; I only wish my experiences could have been the same.
What did you order? All items were in stock: Leeke wigs, shoes, and a Dollmore outfit When did you order? January 18, 2016 How easy was it to pay?

Since Debon was in stock, they shipped him the same day! Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Yes. Dearmine has excellent quality bjds. Only issue is my Debon has a shiny spot on his face up, a defect in the sealant just below his left eye. I will fix it myself as its not a big deal to me. Did the item look like the sales picture? Yes Where you satisfied with the product? Yes, he is so cute and well made This was my first experience ordering a bjd from DDE, and I had excellent service. If I'm planning on any more Dearmine dolls, I will order from DDE.
What did you order? Oscar doll eyes and a Leekeworld wig When did you order? I ordered in late March, 2016 How easy was it to pay? Very easy. The site is professional. How long did it take to ship? Merely days, a lot sooner than I was expecting. I didn't even know what the package was when it arrived because it got here so quickly! Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? I think so. The wig was an initial disappointment because the buns were very ratty in person but they're detachable and now the wig is perfect. I don't blame Denverdoll, it's not like they made the wig. The eyes were flawless. Did the item look like the sales picture? Yes Where you satisfied with the product? Yes, I'd love to purchase from their store again!

Okay, I really need to know...has anyone else become a victim of card fraud a short time after making a purchase from Denver Doll?
I made a lot of orders through DDE as foreign buyer and never had an issue, they are a trusted shop. Edit : I don't know why, perhaps they have change their staff but my last orders (since 2016 ) always had problems of quality checking, and with packages.
You could contact them and let them know that this happened, but you might want to check the security of the connection you used to make the purchase just to be safe!
What did you order? WS ResinSoul Bao (That was in stock) When did you order? October 18 2016 How was the communication? It was really great. It's amazing how fast they reply to you. Also, I originallly ordered a Normal Skin Bao but it had recently went out of stock, so they asked if I wanted the white skin Bao that they had instead (I ended us getting the WS and I actually like it a lot better).

What did you order? Dearmine Picasso Cocoa Bean When did you order? 2015-November-19 How was the communication? Minimal, but quick and easy. How easy was it to pay? Layaway with Visa cc.

What did you order? Ordered a ResinSoul Mai, but switched my order to a Doll-Leaves Maya they had in stock. When did you order? I ordered around mid June 2016. How was the communication? Communication was excellent whenever I emailed them. Responses were given in less than 24 hours and in 10 minutes when it's their business hours. How easy was it to pay? Easy with credit card and they did everything when I switched to a more expensive doll. After asking/confirming with me to charge the same card to pay the difference, they did it without me having to fill out info again. How long did it take to ship? They sent me a tracking info immediately after I confirmed the payment for the difference. Were there any missing or broken items in your order? Everything came perfect. I was a little worried because the shipment box had the corners crushed and there were no "fragile" signs on the box either. If there were any problems with your order, how did the company handle them? The only tiny gripe I have is that the doll I ordered, which was not in stock, was taking longer than the estimate and they didn't send me an email update about it. A week after the given estimate, I emailed them and they said it should be a few more weeks because of ResinSoul having issues. More than 5 week after that, I still don't see anything so I email them again about it. I understand that it wasn't their fault that ResinSoul was having issues, but I think it would be nice if they sent an update email if it was taking longer than what was estimated. They did offer me a cancellation or to switch my order to a doll they had in stock so I switched to a nicer doll. Would you order from this company again? Yes.

I can't believe I spent less than $20 for it, that's after shipping! Did the item look like the sales pictures? No picture available, as it was a random wig, but I will say that the color it is labeled as (Dark Champagne) looks a bit lighter and more orange in person than it does on the color chart. It really depends on the lighting though. Were you satisfied with the product? Absolutely! Shown on a Dream of Doll Petsha. Wig has been modified with elastic on the inside to fit her head, as it was one size too large for her. That was my own fault, not Denverdoll's.

* What did you order? Multiple different orders, but for this one I'm focusing on the Doll Leaves order of both a Teenage Dream Maya (without faceup) and a Teenage Dream Jeremy (with faceup) * When did you order? September 27th 2018 * How was the communication? So-so * How easy was it to pay? Easy. I used my bonus from work to pay for them in one quick payment. * How long did it take to ship? Still hasn't shipped. It is currently May 1st 2019. Will update this when they eventually DO ship them. * Were there any missing or broken items in your order? Don't know, still haven't gotten them. * If there were any problems with your order, how did the company handle them? This is where things get tricky. I was originally told that my dolls would take 5-6 months to get here. The email they sent me when I ordered the dolls was exactly this: "Thank you for your order! I wanted to double check before I charged your card--both dolls are a preorder and will take about 5-6 months to arrive from Doll Leaves. Is that OK? Your total with shipping will be $517.90. Let us know." That's anywhere from February-March 27th. (Give or take a few days for shipping) I was hoping to have them both by April 25th because of the PNW BJD Expo. So the 5-6 month time frame was fine. These were the very first dolls I ever ordered. Come February 27th, no emails. No shipping notifications. I gave it one more month and at the 6 month mark, I decided to send them an email just to check on the status of the shipping. This was their reply: "Nothing yet from Doll Leaves, but it should not be very much longer. We will let you know just as soon as your dolls arrive at the store. We apologize for the long wait, but unfortunately we have no control over Doll Leaves' production schedule." To me that feels like a polite way of saying 'Just shut up and wait.' So I thanked them an I waited.. and waited. Month 7 rolled around, and while I was at the expo, I sent them another email just wanting to check in and see how things were going. I apologized for bothering them, but asked if there was any way they could check on the status. Both Doll Chateau dolls I had ordered had already arrived, as did a DearMine doll I ordered from them. So I wasn't sure why the very first dolls I ordered still weren't here yet. This was their reply: "I understand that you are concerned but you really have nothing to worry about. We are in communication with Doll Leaves and should have your order in the next 3-4 weeks. They are a very small company and it just takes a while to produce and ship orders. I will email them and let them know we have anxious customers " I could be reading too much into this, but that seemed a touch passive aggressive at the end. Especially because when I bought the dolls, they outright told me it would take 5-6 months, and now I'm being told it's going to take roughly 8 months to get these dolls. Dolls I paid for in full. Honestly I'm not very happy about this. Also, why could they not have given me a time estimate the first time I had emailed them. I've heard that this company doesn't like to be bothered about orders, so I was worried about contacting them, and now I'm even more worried. Also, the first email said 'it shouldn't be much longer' but two months is a pretty darn long time if it's two months after the initial estimate. Also, if they know Doll Leaves is a small company it it's normal for them to take this long, why bother saying that it takes 5-6 months when they should be telling people it's 7-8 months? To be fully honest, I would have hesitated in buying these dolls had I known it was going to take this long to get them. * Would you order from this company again? I'm ordering one last doll from them just because of the fact that this is the only place I can seem to get it with the layaway type that I want, but after this, no. I'm sad to say I wont be ordering from them again due to the way things have been handled. EDIT: So my last email from them stated that the dolls should be arriving to them within 3-4 weeks. It's been 5 weeks and still no communication. I'm really starting to think they didn't actually order the dolls when I ordered from them and, while that would normally be understandable, isn't what I expected at the time nor was it communicated.
