    2. My Carved Heritage Edan in one payment >< I got him as a double full set (2 outfit sets, boots, & weapons). I ordered him with all the blushing and extra hand parts. Even if I had only ordered a single set he would be pricey XD. And my EID Leonard would have been the most pricey, or is if you count the fact that it took me 3 separate purchases and one months after the first... meaning I did splits for all his stuff and got the doll later... totally blushed ^^... Ya Iplehouse is easy to throw insane amounts of money at ... Doing a split for HID but I have weapons already and only am keeping one outfit otherwise HE would be the highest price lol Ya I've done over 2k on more than one order. :sweat

    6. I'm really cheap with dolls because its hard to justify spending tons of money on basically a toy, so just 300 is already too expensive. But recently i dropprd 400 on two doll zone dolls. I know its not one doll, but its one doll order. I might have to spend that amount too on the next doll that i want, and im just hoping that my resin crew will be done expanding after that.

    9. My most expensive doll(s) are a three-way tie. I know that I spent more than $900 on each but I can't recall exactly how much for each one of them. First was my Hewitt the 2nd (head with custom faceup) on the SDCute boy body, purchased from a friend on extended layaway. Second was my F-16 Sunlight skin SD13 boy Rowan, purchased from a friend, also on layaway. Third was also a layaway, and the grailiest of grails for me, my Edward Elric Automail Jerome. I would have paid twice what I did, if I'd had to, to get my Ed.

It's Iplehouse Cherie that is my currently most expensive including the shipping price to Alaska! Jeezers. But I know theye won't be most expensive within the next couple years when I get around to getting Akando and Tedro if I don't find them second hand.

      Twyla, my 2010 IH Luna Tamer girl in grey skin. I managed to get both her feline and human selves, and that is quite the story!

      I never thought I'd end up with one, but there was a fullset with both feline and human parts for sale that I followed for nearly a year that was going for $1300. When I came into some money, I finally contacted the seller and offered $1100 for her, but they wanted the full price for her. I thought about it for a couple of days, and then agreed to pay the full $1300 for her. I was heartbroken to find out she had been sold! :eek::...(

      So I went looking for another one, and managed to find a human version that literally went up for sale three hours before I found out the first one had been sold. I had also been following sellers of the different feline parts, so I contacted them all and bought what feline parts I needed from them as well. :XD:

      Not only that, but one of the sellers was selling a Luts/CP Delf Shine, another grail doll, so I bought him in a separate transaction a couple weeks later.

      All in all, Twyla cost me a total of around $750 including shipping instead of $1300! :thumbup

    17. My most expensive purchase was Odette,my Volks Lieselotte.
      After trying for Lieselotte in previous Dolpa's and losing. I convinced myself that if I didn't win her in the Dolpa 32 I would give up on her. Of course after a month of looking at pictures of her, posted by people who won. I gave in and looked her up on Y!J . The prices were all around 250,000 yen, and they were all in bid wars. So i went into Mandarake . Found a brand new one for 280,000, and I pressed purchase. including shipping and fee's she totaled up to around 300,000 yen (2817usd). No regrets..... I think

    18. Pete's my most expensive so far... A la carte MNF boy, then his wig and his eyes... even though I didn't spend much on either, Vince has just kept his default eyes, whereas Pete really demanded something special. Plus I think I've bought him the most clothes at this point. Well... it's close. But I have definitely bought Pete more 'this is specifically for you bough from someone who makes DOLL clothes' pieces, as opposed to 'this was bought at Build-a-Bear, this was made by me, this was a gift, this was supposed to go on a very tiny dog' wardrobe that the other two have. So at any given time, Pete is wearing the most expensive outfit of the three as well.

    20. Oh my my. My first most expensive doll was my Angell-Studio Amy. I thought she was RIDICULOUS, priced at $300 blank! But I loved her and I scrounged and thank you MoC for layaway and eventually I owned her. ;)

      After her, discounting sold dolls, I jumped to my newest Minifee Risse, A La Carte A-Line, small bust, two option hands, heel feet...that was an awful impulse buy that, including matching face-ups for OE and Sleeping heads (I'm one of those people!)...lets round her off to $600~. ^_^ This is forgetting her custom commissioned wig, all-of-the-Raouken corsets...

      This is all pretending each doll's clothes aren't going into their total, of course. I'm a clothes hoarder, I feel almost ashamed of how much I have! Four dolls and outfits enough for 20! It's all just so pretty, what they have available, you know? ;)

    21. My most expensive doll purchase were my first two MSDs from Mystic Kids I've ordered at the same time. Got them in fullsets since I had no stuff for dolls at home at the moment. If I'm not mistaken one fullset is 333$, so I've payed 666$ + shipping and custom fees. Which is an interesting number when I think about it. :) And they are my most expensive ones just from the personal value aspect since they were my first and started the collection.

    22. I think it's a tie between my MSD from Luts (Romantic Yul) and my MSD from Souldoll (Bonnie). They were both around 300 to 350 euros without clothes. Considering that I actually bought specific glow in the dark eyes, black movable wings and several wigs and outfits, I think in the end my overall Luts doll wins.

    29. Reading this thread makes me have so much respect for the people who had to hunt down rare dolls secondhand, especially for the Volks fans because I know that pain of combing yahoo!Japan auctions (but for items far less rare than Volks dolls) and having to pay shopping service fees on top of the auction price :sigh

      My Dollmore Lusion Royal Floraison Dahlia is my most expensive doll, not helped by the fact I paid for full body blushing and sanding (an extra $300) which priced her as much as a Dollmore Trinity... I didn't want to open her box and regret not ordering blushing, and I didn't think it made sense to order full body blushing without sanding, so one led to another. I knew she would be my grail when I saw her on the Dollmore website though, and have never regretted her one bit.

    30. Do dolls who haven't been bought yet but with full intention of buying count? Because so far, while my Dollshe Bernard head was just 120$ including shipping, (though I'll have to add 20-30$ once it arrives because customs... sigh) the body I plan on getting him is gonna cost me 450$, so overall around 600$ :, D

    31. The most I've paid for a doll to date was my lottery win of Rin Tohsaka V2 from Volks. I paid about $600 from the Volks lottery. In terms of value though, she or my DD Kos-Mos would be the most valuable I have. I've actually been really lucky about getting dolls for a really good price so far.

    32. my most expensive is honestly more in the range of average price for an BJD ^^; my doll chateau lance whom i paid $415 for ^^ all the rest of my dolls have each cost me less then 200 two of which only cost $100 (partly because i get most of my dolls on the used market)
      Even though i try my best to keep my spending on any one doll under $300 because i have a lot of other hobbies and responsibilities that i need to see to i just couldn't not grab this one doll because he is my Grail doll ^-^ and the doll that i originally spent many hours staring at when i was first deciding if i should get into the hobby or not ^^ and although i do not regret spending the money to get him and love having him its going to be a while before i spend that much on a doll again ^^;

    36. UPDATE!! I was unbelievably finally able to purchase a Resin Enchanted Doll !! I adore her. I named her Isabeau. When I purchased her after waiting four years on Marina Bychkova's list she was $3000 US directly from Marina. She arrived in her beautiful tin box, unpainted, with two sets of eyes. She was faced up by the incomparable Angel Toast. As far as a porcelain one, that will never happen. The latest one to be auctioned off sold for over $80,000 USD. She is my dream come true!

      The difference? Ashe is a Dollshe Husky bought from DS through Luts, and Mosura is a tan MnF Shiwoo bought second-hand on the MP.

      My most expensive head is my Soom Dia vampire elf, but I am so glad I have him, Dia was my final grail. Vampire elf made him even more special.

    46. My most expensive doll was 300 usd for a bald and nude doll (volks mire). At first I wasn't sure if I should spend so much (my other 2-girls were 200) but I realised I got them just really cheap and 300 is not that much for a volks msd, the others I saw were all over 450 so I felt good about it. But thinking about a 700 euro doll feels horrible o.o I won't be ready to spend so much on a doll yet, it would feel so bad and damage the bonding process.

    48. My most expensive doll is one that hasn't even come yet! The doll cost me $350 as a special event price...not that expensive...but...the outfit alone looks like it will be around $135 and this is just for the jacket and shirt (the description does not say what all is included-so frustrating). So then there might be the pants, definitely some boots, a wig and eyes. And maybe if I decide to pay for a professional face up. But this one is special, so I'm saving like crazy!

I paid them both in full at the same time, wigs and faces, but no clothes since my wallet was already suffering. (Mircaledoll Asael's next on my list, once my wallet recovers.) They cost together around $1,200. I've been haunting the dealer's website nearly everyday since it's at the 3-4 months mark.
