Second-Hand Doll Waiting Room v. 4

It totally is! I know the previous owner of my boy follows my progress with him, so it also makes me excited for them to see what becomes of him as well!

 

Got a tracking # a few hours ago, she's on the way!

 

I got a tracking number for two preloved Tiny Delfs today ^__^ I don't think they'll make it here this week but atleast there is progress.

 

Alas, I was hoping she'd get here as quickly as my Nono did but the tracking hasn't updated since it hit customs status updated in Cincinnati yesterday afternoon. I mean technically it's not estimated until tomorrow so I'm just being whiny but waaaaaah. XD;

 

... my grail popped up in yahoo auctions ...
I missed him when he popped up two months ago (naked doll)
This time though he’s in a fullset!
I just hope they don’t cancel my bid

 

Tracking updated to say out of delivery since 7:30am... at 3:30pm it says Item Processed again and to look for an Out for Delivery scan for today or tomorrow but tracking still says out for delivery... I was hoping she would come today since tracking said by the end of today but my hopes are dying out... I think I am also dying... doll please come home ;__;

 

Tracking finally updated yay hopefully I'll see her today.

 

Fingers crossed for you!!! I should be getting mine today..... if I don't I'm gonna cry... ;_;

 

I know that feeling lol. I might cry with you lol she just finally left Cincinnati which by the time the plane takes off, lands, she gets unloaded and sorted and sent out to the local depot and they have to drive up here... It's super iffy if she'll actually arrive today. XD

Oh well if not it'll be tomorrow so it's still not as awful as the doll still motionless since the 10th of April. <_>

 

I just ordered a sleeping rosy head ! It would be my first SD sized doll, I’m really excited. I wonder if i should get the 60 or 65 cm body for them later. I just hope she comes in good condition

 

I finally found my retired several years ago Grail Doll - Hubery DC, and preparing to wait long.
I hope everything will go smoothly!

 

Well, tracking says she is still in customs in Spain, but tracking LIES!
She arrived here today!
I ordered eyes for her a few days ago because it was the perfect color and they were down to only a few pairs left, but now I am worried I should have gotten a larger size... I contacted the seller to see if I can change my order. Fingers crossed!

 

The delivery guy didn't even try to deliver it and just automatically sent a notice to pick it up tomorrow instead :/ I was so excited too.... but at least I'm definitely.. hopefully... finally getting her tomorrow....

 

She made it today and she's gorgeous!



She's a BW Luts Delf Lishe.

Now I'm just waiting on my poor Evan to hopefully eventually someday get out of EMS purgatory.

 

Yay! My Doll Family-A Frog was shipped today! I’m so excited for her arrival! Her name will be Puddles! She should be here Tuesday if the Corona Mail Gods will it.

 

She's here!!!!!!!

 

Soooooooooooooo I made a horribly irresponsible decision to adopt yet another secondhand doll...
This time it's the minifee hwayu vampire!! She should arrive next next week if all goes well!!
I also purchased these eyes from the same seller. (The ones she's wearing in photo.)
I've been dying for a vampire doll, so I'm beyond excited.

 

My Grail is home
She is my favorite

 

After being missing for 11 days in a depot, my ingenue has finally come home, and she’s gorgeous! I’m going to try a bunch of wigs on her to see who she’s going to be, because she was a total impulse buy, but she’s just gorgeous.

 

Puddles is here! I am so excited! I've never had a moment where I screamed over a doll before, but I did when I opened her! She's so small! I'm sealing her right now to work on her face up, but I'm SO happy she's home safely!

 

My hwayu is scheduled to arrive Monday! I hope everything goes as planned.. customs, don't bully her....

 

I might have bought a total impulse doll second-hand at a price range that I wasn't actually willing to pay. I'm an idiot. I hope I love them to death when they arrive. They should depart from their old home today.

 

Of course customs kidnapped my Hwayu... come home soon....

 

My grail Hubery materialized after 2 weeks being released from US on the way to Japan
cannot wait to get him home

 

.

 

So I can't stop, and I also purchased a LM little sophia, and fairyland vampire cygne.
My hwayu is out for delivery today!!!
I.. have a problem.

 

I found someone to keep Artemis company, a Nyx doll Eris on a modded delf body. Only he's in Finland and I have no idea how shipping will be, so I'm just waiting on the tracking info to update. I did have him sent unstrung for package size, and he's been accepted by Finland post on the 10th, so here we go.
I just hope I get enough arrival warning to put Artemis into something pretty for first impressions

 

As expected my Woosoo still hasn't left the US yet. It's been a week so far and if he's going to be anything like Chiwoo was it won't be another week until he moves again I'm not to worried since he's clothes/wig/etc. haven't arrived yet so it gives me some more to time to be prepared for his arrival

 

I snagged a Hound head yesterday, and I'm so excited about him--I've been a huge fan of Dollshe for a while, and he's an old boy that has a lot of character to him. :> Now I just have to track down a body for him and wait for him to get here!

 

I bought a Mini Dollfie Dream a few days ago and I just received the tracking number! Let's see what's my luck for international shipping by EMS.

 

Guys I'm so excited! I missed Lacey from Doll Chateau when she came out (limited funds, didn't manage to get enough before the ordering period ran out), but I saw one on the Marketplace! She wasn't the color I wanted originally but now I think I like the gray color more after thinking about it? She's on her way here and I'm so excited I can barely sit still. I've been doing sketches for outfits and hair, though I think the hairstyle is little ambitious for my first yarn weft wig haha

 

I have a Nyxdoll Eris on a Delf body somewhere between Finland and the US.

And a Delf Moon going into the mail to me today or tomorrow.

And I'm always watching for any secondhand Els.

 

After four weeks, the package arrived! Beautiful PhoenixDoll Liu! I'm so happy!

I wish everyone a happy reunion with the beloved doll.

 

I’ve done some serious expanding lately and can not wait! My dollstown Soi head is on her way with her body on layaway, Luts kid muhwa (my first tan) is on order, I’m so excited to get a DIM Jullis second hand on a loongsoul BB boy body - (I am hoping the scale will work well with my Soi), AND I just put an order in for a Kanadoll Jupiter who is super handsome and completely replaced my longing for a Switch Doha. I probably have some serious explaining to do now with hubby in regards to Jupiter... whoops .

 

Waiting for a switch milhwa I bought just last week! Hopefully he arrives safetly! Im readying my hands and fingers for the tough restringing encounter that'll take place.

 

My secondhand boys arrived! They immediately stole Artemis' wigs.

I've been eyeing on Volks Kei since he was out. I even requested his face up when I ordered my F40 many years ago. Yet fate hasn't come. I was talking with my friend about her boy's new body and told her 'I missed a Kei in low price again and there are a Kei almost fullset on Mandakare blabla' causally. 2 days later she asked me if I would like to split the fullset with her
Yes yes yes of course! *Happy crying* And he is on the way to me already! Hopefully I will get his next week!

 

Reading through this thread makes me happy, I love seeing everyone getting their old grails.

My husband found a Unoa B-El on Mandarake for me! Thank you anime fleamarket for making my resin dreams come true~ Fixing up yellowed resin gives me those good IKEA-effect feels. He'll be here for my birthday :>

(Speaking of Unoa, I had never noticed because of the English stylization but the 43cm boys' names are annagrams of each other if you read the katakana? Phonetically, L-Bi is "Eruvi", B-El is "Vieru".)

 

I want Volks Amelia this year can't wait...

 

I just bought a second hand Unoa Chibi Roron! I’ve wanted this girl for ages and I’m so excited to finally have one coming now to find some additional faceplates...

 

I suppose I should join this thread xD

I just bought two old delfs second hand. Neither of them were planned but I've yet to start regretting it!

So I have a Breakaway Bloody Valentine on the way to me. Full doll with OE and sleeping head (does this count as two? I'm thinking I would like to mod the sleeping head into a dreaming head and get him his own body eventually)

I also bought a Lishe head. But she's coming from the US (to the UK) so I'm expecting to be waiting a loooooong time for that one to arrive Also I don't have a body for her. And I'm not sure how willing my Soony will be to share...

 

Need somewhere to express my excitement! I finally ordered my first resin doll... then accccidentally browsing a doll group fell in love with someone's project doll they were lts. Thankfully they're both second hand and within the UK so I hopefully won't wait long. But I am still very •full of anticipation.

 

Waiting on a preloved venitu. Hoping he gets here safely and hassle free! Wishing all of our dolls safe and quick trips to their respective homes

 

I just paid off a layaway I had with a friend for their Minifee Siean. I'm so excited! They shipped it yesterday, so I'm officially in the waiting room.

 

Wasn’t planning on bringing home two new dolls in two months, but I found a secondhand Minifee Mirwen head and a body at prices I couldn’t resist (body is missing the neck connector and is a bit older). So...Mirwen makes three? And just when I’d downsized to one BJD at last.

 

I'm back. Waiting on a secondhand El ns minifee from Belgium this time. Feel like I need a world map to mark where my dolls all came from.

I don't know how I feel about MSDs yet I impulse bought one even though I'm still waiting on the tan girl version from DDE.

Brain, why we do this????

 

I wanted to avoid to buy from Russia, because of super post pandemic delays from there recently, and huge amount of lost packages, but I can’t resist again and bought artist Bjd Fashion doll from SH.To say I’m nervous is to say nothing..

 

My minifee El came so quickly! He's so dramatic when it comes to trying to get him to stand. Arms akimbo and hands backwards-- eesh.

I wasn't sure about the msd size, but I already love him. I shouldn't have been worried.


I'm still here tho-- I snatched up another El, this time a tanning Delf from his original owner. My Artemis will have a brother Apollo like I was hoping for!

 

He's here!
Hopefully I won't be back for a while now- says my wallet.

 

I will keep your seat warm for you!

So I am buying an outfit on Buyee and either I have to wait until airmail opens back up (who knows when that will be), put it on a slow boat from China (literally!), or pay 60% of the item's cost in to ship it via express. So... I am also getting a Little Fee Dark Elf Soo, because.. logic? Right, @Pandy, logic?

I am waffling on her name. I've got a short list, but perhaps I will wait until she is here and decide.

 

Just paid for shipping. DHL is a kick to the groin, but at least she will not spend months on a boat.

 

Partying by myself in here?

Just got a shipping notice. My girl should be here on Friday!

 

*sticks head in from other room* Shipped party? Yessss! So glad for you.

 

Will you let me wait for my boys in your honored company?
I have negotiated two amazing dream boy heads - Soom Chrome and Souldoll Morse. If everything goes smoothly, the boys will be repaid by January. I hope my hands touch them soon.

 

Yay for new dolls!

My girl came in! She is so cute! I still need to get photos of her in her proper wig and eyes, but here is a quick snap of her from her box opening.


Edit: Lol, I just now noticed someone is photobombing her.....

 

@Tonboko Congratulation

 

My second hand doll is coming tomorrow! So exciting!

 

Good news!

 

Tonight I'm paying for my new doll. Shes coming from a friend near by me. She is a Iplehouse Yur. I'm lucky enough that she is close by so we are picking her up on sat. Pictures to come once i pic her up. Very excited.

 

@Azulafan199 Good news!

My Morse will be sent tomorrow! I am looking forward to seeing him! He is my grail!
