Miracle Doll Waiting Room

Feb 8, 2019

    1. @NamelessPierrot I really feel you on this one. I also am getting the no updates runaround from the dealer. Ordered March 7, 2022 (not to mention the 3+ year Dollshe order through them).

      I'm planning on ordering the other body I need from Alice when some sort of event happens. I'll just have to save up more money up front.
       
    2. I think I’d be less frustrated if I was told MD hadn’t shipped yet, there’d be hope at getting a refund then. But now it’s another 2-3 months of just “Stuck” and no refund possible since it’s on the way :sigh

      My plans fell through over six months ago so I’ve just been waiting all this time so I can rehome the body if it ever shows up and it’s frustrating to be nearing 20 months with just “Stuck”
       
    3. Is there a difference in wait times from buying from the dealer itself, or through a company? I do all my orders through Alice C, they make everything so easy and are great with communication, can I hope they would keep an eye on the company making the doll?

    4. All my MD orders have been through AC, Clover or Stacy's and while wait times for MD are pretty long in general (longest for me has been 12 months), all of them have arrived within expected time frame and all three dealers have been good with communications from what I've experienced. I will say, I've never bought from MD directly so I've no idea how long waits are for people who do.

      My IAN head just shipped from Clover which was a nice surprise to wake up to.
       
    5. IAN head arrived today, that was mad fast. :o
       
    6. New Clover Singing is having a 15% off sale on Miracle Doll right now. I guess it's time to order that body. Hopefully she can add it to the site and I can pop it on layaway! It'll save me the cost of getting that tan resin!


      And a quick note, has anyone set up a layaway with Christina? Do I just email her about it?

      (And I've hit the one year club on my muscle girl body. Yay.)

    7. I believe you do email her about it first! Last time I checked 4 months was the longest she does but it could be different now.

    8. @Scincidae Thank you!

      Unfortunately the body I want isn't available right now, but they're planning on it being rereleased later in the year. Back to waiting, I guess. I would order from Alice, but I would be saving a lot of money ($60) by waiting for when I can get it through Christina.

    9. After 76 days in transit, the package finally arrived in the US. I expect at least a few more days to a week before I receive it. Updated timeline:

      Miracle Doll order (full set non-painted Fox Nine Hujiu) timeline from BJDivas:
      • 4/7/21: ordered, started layaway
      • 3/3/22: finished layaway
      • I followed up with BJDivas every few months on the status
      • 1/7/23: shipped via China Post according to tracking info (directly from Miracle Doll to me in the US), but I didn’t get email notification from BJDivas until 1/26/23
      • 2/1/23: most recent tracking update is “Delivery to Carrier, Shanghai”
      • 3/23/23: package arrived in the US (76 days in transit)

    10. @trowicia OOF that shipping time!!! That's awful. The wai is bad enough without almost 3 months in transit. Hopefully your doll will arrive perfect and without any further delays!
       
      • x 1
    11. I couldn't resist baiyes demon version (closed eyes) 45cm full set, so I put him on a short layaway through acbjd along with his human head :D ah I'm so excited he's so cute :kitty1
       
      • x 2
    12. Zhi Shen is up on ACBJD. Can't tell if it's just the promotion- or if the doll's sale ends on 4/15 .
      Mighty tempted to grab her again regardless.

      Speaking of the original order,
      • March 14, 2022 Ordered
      • Nov 13, 2022 First check-in with BJDivas, doll is shipping to them.
      • Mar 29, 2023 Second check-in with BJDivas, same.
      Assuming the doll started shipping as late as early Nov. the cited 6 month wait time would be up around the start of May. Here's to hoping she arrives before my birthday!
       
      • x 2
    13. I just ordered the muscle girl body. It's the wait going to be that bad?
       
      • x 2
    14. My wait was ~5 months to ship, and then shipping was like 2-3 weeks (I went through clover singing). I think which dealer you use makes a big difference because of how Miracle Doll is shipping the dolls to the dealers
       
      • x 3
    15. I forgot to mention I did receive my Fox Nine Hujiu on 3/29/2023. The beast version body and fox head are awesome! Apparently with BJDivas, they ship via ocean shipping which can take a few months. I also ordered my Zhi Shen through BJDivas back from the first release, so I’m assuming she’ll also take forever to get to me.
       
      • x 3
    16. My boy arrived! Ordered him back on October the 16th through Alice Collections, he shipped out on April 21st, and arrived on this Wednesday the April 26th! He's GORGEOUS :D
       
      • x 3
    17. The 3rd marked the “6 months in transit” for the md body (or at least that’s when I point blank asked if it was in transit or not)
      I was told it’s 6 months for transit
      Let’s see if I actually get it this month or if I’m gonna hit 2 years, but I truly am believing I won’t ever see it this year at all, let alone before the 2nd year mark :sigh
       
      • x 2
    18. My muscle body finally arrived at BJDivas, and I just paid shipping! Hopefully she shows up later this week! I ordered her March 2022.
       
      • x 2
    19. Seems like BJDivas has got my muscle body too~! They emailed to ask about my shipping address (since I left a note I was about to move.)
      Haven't heard back (prob because of Memorial day +) but I imagine I'm just paying the shipping cost and then my girl is mine.
       
      • x 2
    20. 7 months later and I’m now told my body wasn’t in the shipment after all! After being told it was in transit to the dealer
      It’s been 23 months. For a body. The end of this month will be 2 entire years!
       
      • x 1
    21. My Miracle Doll Zhi Shen arrived to me last week. Unfortunately, she arrived with both of her calves broken (chips broke off of them). So I'm starting the wait again for replacement calves...
       
      • x 1
    22. @NamelessPierrot OH NO SERIOUSLY????? I am just shocked. I'm so sorry. That's ridiculous. At this point the dealer should be making a fuss on your behalf.

      @KittyFields Oof, that's rough. Hopefully it'll be a much shorter wait. I only ever had one doll with broken shins, and maybe I got lucky because I only had to wait an additional month for her new parts. But that was a different company. :sweat

      My girl arrived, and the head I wanted to use looks a little small, but with hair she should be good. However the other body I needed to order seems to have been quietly discontinued (72 slim male) I needed it for color matching and aesthetics that I couldn't find anywhere else. The only dealer that still has it is Divas, but since it's gone everywhere else I doubt it's actually available.

    23. @Thymeseer They already contacted md about it and we’re just waiting on a response. But honestly, there’s nothing md could say at this point that’d make me change my mind on demanding a refund. Even if it’s shipped right now, that’s another 6+ months in transit after an already 2 year wait
       
      • x 3
    24. Following up that Miracle Doll straight up refused any sort of compromise other than “send it straight to me”
      Which still is another 3-4 month wait
      2 years. It’s been 2 years. They “forgot” to include it in the shipment they said it was in and just “oops. Not gonna do anything about it”
      This pretty much cements me never ordering from MD again

    25. I'm nearing my 1 year mark and Divas isn't responding to my requests for an update. u_u
       
      • x 2
    26. Checked in with Alice about my tan Zhi Shen from April and she estimated it'll take another 2-3 months. Which would make for a very reasonable total of 6 months waiting, but some of the stories I'm hearing are making me nervous about a longer delay...
       
      • x 2
    27. Another follow up that despite being told ASAP, I still haven’t gotten the tracking info or proof they ever shipped out the body. I was told 4 weeks ago it was at the transport company but not shipped. I’m even more mad that they’re going to make me wait another 6-9 months for a body they should have refunded me for
       
      • x 2
    28. An update for me and Divas never responded to my requests for an update. It'll be one year in mid-August. :(

      Divas also never responded to another issue I had with them. Sigh.

    29. I finally got a tracking number, it shipped a month ago and I only just now got the tracking

    30. I ordered January 2022, paid in full, and never heared a word since. I am contacting BJDivas now to ask on a status. Waiting so long without any info is actually getting quite ridicolous.
       
      • x 1
    31. That’s what’s happening to me. It’s been 2 months since I contacted them for an update and I’ve gotten no response. It’s now passed the year mark on my order.

    33. I got an email from BJDivas today. Here is their reply:

      "Hello!

      I'm really sorry for how long it's taken. We posted an update on our FB that affects you:

      Miracle Doll apologizes for their long order delays and for those still waiting for their orders. The pandemic has been very difficult for them, causing many setbacks: In addition to limited factory availability, many of the dolls they sent out to international addresses were lost by the couriers. They had to change offices and in the process of relocating, some doll molds were damaged. A newer factory that they were trying actually lost some mold parts of certain sculpts. They've tried to reproduce these lost and damaged molds, however it hasn't been possible with all affected molds.

      Miracle is refunding all of the dolls that were lost and not able to be produced. We will be contacting and processing these refunds to the parties affected.

      There is some good news in all of this: some of you might've noticed that Miracle's opening up more of their catalogue again. This is due to Miracle having recovered from the difficulties of the past years. They're currently working on sending us the remaining outstanding orders.
      Both we and Miracle Doll thank you for your patience and understanding during the difficult times for them.

      Thankfully your order isn't affected by loss or damages, they just need more time to process it. We will keep you posted.


      Thanks and have a great day!

      BJDivas"

    34. I just received an email as well:

      "I apologize for the wait, Miracle is in the process of dispatching a shipment that includes your order to us now. After dispatch, shipments from China have been taking 1 - 4 months to come in. We'll let you know when it's here.

      Thanks and have a great day!"

      Fingers crossed this is all over soon!

      I got rid of FB because it's so toxic but it seems like Divas uses it quite a bit to post updates. It's unfortunate that they can't do this on other platforms for those of us that don't want to use FB, but I'm thankful you're posting it for us, Valentino!

      5 months? Not bad it seems for miracle doll. Maybe they're picking up the pace?

    40. I’m back! Two months after I received and sold the body, I get an email that I had received the wrong body (but? I’m not sure what was wrong? It looked right?) and md has shipped me the correct body and please return the wrong one
      I already sold the wrong one but they said it’d be fine to just return the correct one when it arrives
      I’m so done and fed up with this whole order

    41. Oh. Em. Gee. @NamelessPierrot I am just... :aeyepop:
      What a poorly managed company. Pity - their bodies are gorgeous (or so I've heard). Still waiting on my doll, of course. Miracle doll - as in, it's a Miracle if you get your doll in less than a year. Or in one piece unbroken, apparently.
      I emailed ACBJD and pointed out this thread to them. I also asked them to please look inside the box and make sure the doll isn't damaged before shipping to me.
      If (and it's a BIG if) I ever order another Miracle doll, it will be through ACBJD as a dealer only. It sounds like their shipping and logistics are truly horrendous.

    42. Almost 7 months later and I finally recieved baiye ! Bonus is that he came with body blushing even though I didn't order it :blush he's so beautiful ! I put on his closed eyed head and on his stand but now I want to try his open eyed head :D

    43. So based on what I've read, wait times are various depending on the dealers?
       
      • x 2
    44. More or less from my experience. Shipping takes months to get to BJDivas (located in the US), but not as long as it takes to get to Clover Singing (China).
      I wager it depends if the company is sending the doll to a dealer overseas or not.

      Here's how things have gone for me:
      BJDivas order: ( 68 cm Body ) (over 1 year of waiting)
      Ordered: March 15th, 2022
      Shipped: May 30th, 2023
      Arrived: June 3rd, 2023

      Clover Singing order: ( 45 cm Body ) (~6 months)
      Ordered: Dec 13, 2022
      Shipped: May 1st, 2023
      Arrived: May 17, 2023

    45. After 454 days of waiting, Divas let me know my Sariel torso stand finally arrived! Just waiting for my invoice! :D

    46. I got my Sariel torso stand yesterday and it's AMAZING! Everything is super well-packed and the stand is gorgeous. I didn't order the head but I got everything else and I'm glad I did. It's beautiful and I cannot wait to get started working on it!

    47. I am on 23 month waiting now, and just shot BJDivas another email (last one was in August).
      Unfortunatly I am growing really tired of this...
      As much as I really looked forward to recieving this doll, I think I'd rather cancel...
       
      • x 4
    48. I just got a refund from BJDivas.
      This leaves me sad and happy at the same time.

      I am really sorry for the company but this experience ruined the idea of purchasing from them ever again.

    49. I just asked about my June order (a 68cm body in tan) from ACBJD, and supposedly it's only going to take 2 more months. 7 months total? I'm hopeful.

      Elysia took one look at Zhi Shen and was like, "Are you my mommy?" ...which is probably why Zhi Shen looks tired in this picture.

      This body is just astounding. Superb posing, gorgeous sculpting - and HUGE feet. Damn, girl. You got some boat paddles down there.

    55. I am about to purchase two dolls, should I be nervous of them arriving broken..? :(

    56. It honestly depends upon who your shipping company is. I don't have problems with FedEx *near me* but apparently others do. UPS is brutal on anything fragile, and USPS is spotty. DHL is just superb.
      I bought an in-stock Resinsoul doll from DDE, and DDE uses UPS exclusively. Fingers on both of her hands broke off - one in shipping, and the second when I touched her hand. I bought a similar doll directly from Resinsoul and had zero problems.
      Unfortunately, it's a toss of the dice - or actually, a toss of the shipping company, sadly...
       
      • x 2
    57. When I ordered my first doll a few years ago, he arrived by DHL out of the blue. Now I have a second doll coming by EMS... which I've never heard of. :(

      I mean we can only hope the doll will come by DHL, but... typically my parcels shipped through Usps, ups, and fedex don't have much or any harm to them. Then again, they're often soft, and not breakable pricey resin.

      Edit: I will be ordering through Alice's layaway. Do you happen to know what they ship with or is it a mystery?

    58. Alice’s ships EMS these days—they used to ship DHL but they changed shipping partners a while ago. I got my miracledoll muscle girl body from new clover singing, and they shipped EMS as well, and I received her without damage.
