You're gifted $1000. What do you buy?

Feb 15, 2018

    1. Me, I'd be trying to get my hands on each iteration of the aileendoll dragons. And I'd splurge on expensive eyes for each one:thumbup
       
      • x 6
    2. Ios Cho and Co in normal skin with b-type bodies. Together they come out to a little less than $1k. Any leftover would be spent on eyes and maybe custom wigs if there's enough.

      One can dream.... *°*
       
      • x 1
    3. All other conditions (living space, etc.) being ideal... Ringdoll’s Meng He. He’s gorgeous.

      But, you know. Space, and I’m already overwhelmed with the fact I’m gonna have 3 SDs. *_*

    4. Considering peakswoods ordering is closed, I'd probably get my Tan aragorn from Luts and a bunch of clothes for my crew. Unless I find a senior delf quintus in the marketplace with those funds. :P
       
    5. I would buy a Lucywen body and hunt for a head to go with it. Anything leftover would probably go to crafting stuff like fabric yarn and eye making stuff.
       
    6. A Dollzone 1/3 body for incoming Flower & Junior head. Wigs and eyes from Dolly Planet, a Koala Krash faceup, some shoes for my girls who haven't any. Ooops, think I spent everything ;)
       
    7. I’d pay off my MOC layaway for my Xagadoll Haze and buy her eyes, a wig, shoes, and clothes, cruise the mp and see if any dolls I’ve missed are being sold, and finally get what ever else my dolly crew needs.
       
    8. I would buy another volks doll. Maybe Charlotte, if she were available....
       
    9. Absolutely fabulous clothes for my two boys. From socks and briefs to great coats and jackets. That's what my heart would say, but my head says I should fix up the room I keep my dears in so next winter isn't so cold.

    10. Delf JuHee, and probably one of the model Delf pairs they offer. The other few hundred would be clothes and eyes easily.
       
    11. *as a newbie just writes down places to buy*
       
      • x 8
    12. I would probably get a Doll Chateau Bella - I've been wanting her for a while and then just spend the rest on doll clothes and furniture for all my dolls! To add to this, I will need a body to go with a head I'll be purchasing next month and I want a really nice one!
       
    13. @zen0one im a newbie too. I have a close friend who helped me out a lot. I don’t know if you have a doll or are looking for any, but usually places like resinsoul offer beautiful sculpts that don’t break the budget. Fairyland dolls seem very popular, although Luts tends to be similar in sculpt while being more afforable.
      What I would suggest to start, is go on dolkus.com. DO NOT BUY FROM THERE for I’ve heard that it’s not reliable. BUT, it lists various companies at said company’s prices. Just so you can get a feel for what style you might like.

    14. @Boku_Of_Water THANK YOU! Everything in one spot! I do have a doll so I'm just looking to where people are getting clothes and wigs and accessories. But I'd be lying if I'm not already tempted to look at another doll already x) So this will be either good or bad for me.
       
    15. @zenOone I always suggest looking at BJDCollectasy - it's a website that lists practally every doll company (and there websites) out there. It also lists company websites where you can find any accessories you may need (clothes, eyes, wigs,'etc.). When you go to this website open "companies and other links" to find BJD heaven! Have fun!

    16. MYOU Zimo (I just don't feel like I can justify adding a boy until I have the funds to do him justice! But I love that sly smile...) and clothes/furniture/Wigs for my whole crew. I love the different urethane eyes but since all my girls have such pretty ones now, it seems silly to get more. Also, shoes. I spent like 1/4 of my Christmas money on doll shoes and they're so beautiful and were so worth it.
       
    17. Oooof....There're several options...
      - Granado's Vigor body + Souldoll Tera Zenith Oscal head (If possible)...and I bet there wouldn't be much else left...*Facepalms*
      - Dollshe 28M Grant Phillipe
      - Iplehouse EID Falcon
      - And my holy grail... Fantasia doll Canary or Vivian (OR AT LEAST THEIR BODY) as long as it's B-type in tan TT_TT how much i regret not having purchased her when they were on sale...

    18. oommmmmggggggggg thank you :D
       
    19. I would probably buy a body for one of my floating heads (probably my F60 Soony so the F60 Moe body) and loads of clothes for her and also some more clothes for my boy!

    20. I think I'd have to pass on purchasing a doll and just spend all $1000 buying some beautiful furniture and clothing. The money would go a lot farther there. :lol:

      My biggest problem is that I know EXACTLY what I'm looking for, so I'm not really willing to compromise. With $1000, though, I could easily just get some custom stuff done. I really want a chaise lounge chair with red velvet fabric and antique gold accents. I also want a gorgeous, dark wood closet/trunk where I could store all of my doll's pretty outfits in. If I had any money left over after that, I'd pay someone to turn a couple of my outfit designs into real outfits for my doll. :D

    21. @Ipledreamer i just received a Little Sophia who doesn’t fit my crew. I saw an auction for her and got her at half price. She has no place, no story, not even a name. But god do I love her already.
       
    22. Bodies for the dolls I am in the process of reshelling, jointed hands for those two as well, and if there were any left, new shoes all around. $1000 would go a long way toward tying up all the loose ends in my collection, actually.
       
    23. Outfits.
      There are a few pretty pricey outfits I've been eyeing for the gang, and I think that's where I'd use it.
       
    24. I would get an Iple House Isabel in glow special real resin.
       
    25. Buy the Dollshe Philipe for my next doll.
       
    26. I would buy snow miku or regular miku from volks! No question! aaaand that would be all the money gone right there lol.
       
    27. The expensive resin eyes that make me feel guilty buying and like freedom teller clothes
       
    28. Hi! You can also check out Alice's Collections if you havent already. Its the same concept, lots of different companies in one place. I just ordered my first doll through them a few weeks ago. ^.^
       
      • x 1
    29. @lividdarkangel i ordered there too! It doesn’t offer all the doll companies out there, but they’re very helpful as well. Good communication and quick shipping. I hope you love your first!
       
    30. I agree! Their customer service is great. I am already in love with her sculpt, just cant wait to meet her in person >.<
       
    31. I would spend it on hand carved luxury furniture and make a grand diorama. Maybe the Gallery of Mirrors at Versailles! Too ambitious? (yes!)
       
    32. I would put up a WTB for a tan Dark Elf Soo. I would sit so hard on that money until I found her! I could cry, I found and bought my TAN DES!!!!!!!
      Then if I had enough I wound finally get an MSD boy (most likely a Luts An in light tan or a Dikadoll Guang Nian). My collection is such a hen house!

      Well... dang..... I established those goals!


      So NEW ONES!

      I could easily spend nearly $1000 on faceups and bodies (need at least two bodies and four faceups, two of them need color matching). I would also perhaps put up a WTB for an original Elfdoll Catsy as I want one to dye grey.


      And, @Pandy , how have you NOT posted in this thread yet??

    33. I would buy clothes , hands, oscar eyes for my doll.
       
    34. Assuming that the entire $1000 HAS to go to BJDs and related things:

      -Dollmore Zaoll Luv in normal skin (I'm actually already saving up for her! Almost there!)
      -Clothes for her (found several things on Etsy I really like)
      -Shoes for her
      -CanCan or Monique wig for her
      -Several pairs of Eyeco eyes for various dolls
      -Probably a big order from Nine9 Style, TTYA or Freedom Teller for several of my dolls

      That's probably a thousand already....but if not, then just some random shoes and clothes for my others.

    35. I WISH I had $1,000 to spend on dollies! But if I did, I'd buy:
      • Soom Ondiin and Rudy
      • All new faceups for my dolls
      • Eyes. So many eyes.
      • If I had any extra, a new wardrobe for my dolls. :3nodding:
       
    36. I would get a Feeple60 Cygne, and an Iplehouse KID Irene. I can make all the clothes and stuff for them, since that would pretty much take up all the money xD
       
    37. That would just cover the two dolls I have left to buy :D An Impledoll & Iplehouse :D
       
      • x 1
    38. Right now I would go for Iplehouse's FID Bichun is Special Real resin, the Little Monica head and Luts body for a hybrid I have planned, and a Bluefairy Pocket Fairy. If there's any left after that, more shoes for everybody.

    39. I'd probably end up either entering into one of three preorders; merry doll round Olathe, Pasha pasha, or another twigling! Merry doll round and pasha pasha are definitely on my watch list for preorders!! And of course I'm dying to pay off my current twigling layaway so my girls can come home ASAP!!

    40. I would commission a unique, sophisticated and fancy clothing set for my dolls hahaha and/or maybe a body for my floating heads :)
       
    41. Probably either something Volks (That’d cover…. most of a Ryoma?) or commission someone to make Crow’s actual leather armor and staff of death. In the wildest dreams I could take over part of the sewing room and make dioramas but it’s a bit of a disaster in there as it is.
       
    42. Oh boy, definantly a Sadol or Loongsoul outfit! And maaaaybe an artifex kindred body!
       
    43. I would buy the Dikadoll Heryu fullset, and use the leftover money to maybe commission some fancy historical clothes! Oooh, or perhaps I'd use the remainder to pick up a pair of Soom Crow legs...
       
    44. I'd buy a couple of armoirs as the basis of my tiny/MSD boarding school. Any leftover money would go towards furnishing.
       
    45. More clothes, eyes and wigs!

      Oh... and more shelving.
       
    46. i'd get my grail (vezeto) and one more doll (onulharu) ;; v ;;
       
    47. I would buy another Volks doll... currently I really want SD16 Pearl :(
       
    48. I would buy a Doll Chateau Lillian SP fullset. I've been in love with her since I started the hobby.
       
    49. I'd buy underwear for all of my dolls first. Two out of four of them are lacking.:nowords: Then I'd get a nice series of doll carriers for them! Coffins, violins, etc. Then I'd get them each a pair of shoes and their own individual wardrobes.
       
    50. Bimong limited edition 100 Dandelion, with narea40 body limited. :D I want her so bad.
       
    51. Oh my, so many possibilities! :O So far, though, I think I would go for either of these:
      • Option #1: 5th Motif Venitu. Although I plan to have each of my dolls to represent one of my original characters and Venitu is not really a sculpt I think would fit any of my guys, he's gorgeous (those handssss ;___; ) and I would love to have him in my collection ;___;
      • Option #2: Doll Chateau Dolores + part of a layaway for an Iplehouse Raffine, to go with my current wishlist.
      • Option #3: a Mirodoll body for my floating DZ Snow head and an Akagidoll 66 cm body for my DollShe Arsene head + plenty of clothes, wigs and shoes from Etsy :)
       
    52. Well what do you know, that's about how much my tax return's going to be.:XD: Obviously I'm going to save some of it but some is definitely going toward doll stuff. ^v^ No idea what to do with most of it yet--probably finish paying off my Angell-Studio layaway and start my Universe Doll De'Ath. And I definitely want to at last get that BIA assassin outfit I've been eyeing for a long, long time.... Maybe a nice suit too? Haha I'm getting a bit greedy.
       
    53. I would buy the bodies I need for my floating heads a Dollzone Body a Doll Chatue body a Resin Soul body and a Impledoll Body
       
    54. Couple of my grail dolls and do a mass order from Fairyland. Buy a DSLR.

      Like, good gosh I really want a DSLR.
       
    55. Admittedly I feel like I'd just throw it all at Doll Chateau lol

      I'd probably get Jodie, and then a kid body 06 for my DZ Benjamin head! :evilplot: DC's larger dolls are usually out of my price range but in this hypothetical I'd definitely jump at the chance.
       
    56. OoOoO!

      I'd probably buy bodies for my two floating heads then the LUTS Kiwi and R.Kiwi twins I have on my wishlist. <3
       
    57. I would buy a body for my floating head, then a Soom cheshire surprised ver head :chibiand a body to hybrid it with! the rest on supplies for customizing the dolls!
       
    58. I'd buy an Immortality of Soul (IOS) 70CM doll and spend the rest on clothes for him. :3 Thinking about it now.... $1000 wouldn't really get me that far... lol!
       
    59. Splurge on IOS Blue and get the Elafi and the Tauros head of course!! or maybe get an infernale head too for my lacrimosa! :dance
