Hi solyaris, just checking here. Did your doll come directly from the WM factory to your address, or through a vendor?solyaris wrote:My doll still does have a faint smell, and she feels constantly oily. So based on others' experiences, does that deduce to mean that mine's fake too?
No, because it came from WM doll. It probably means their manufacturing standard or TPE quality has taken shortcuts.

Re: Damage on barely used doll
If I understand the process correctly, I purchased from a vendor based in the US, but the doll was shipped directly from the WM factory, in Shenzhen.
I have a pro-forma invoice, plus also an order accuracy & doll quality checklist too.
Right now, I am going to put her in confinement (poor gal!) and do another round of light cleaning, then oiling, and focus on vaseline over stress areas all over again, as if she just arrived.
Any suggestions?

Sorry I can't help you with any info on TPE dolls, not much knowledge and no experience, mine's silicone.
I'm assuming you are familiar with this thread though https://www.dollforum.com/forum/viewtop ... 27&t=77364

So, does this mean even though it was manufactured in Shenzhen, it is then shipped to the vendor's address in US, before it arrived at my place?
The FedEx tracking was somewhat confusing: the package originated from:
Shenzhen>Guangzhou>Oakland(??)>Sennan-Shi (JPN)>Memphis TN>my home

I can't be sure of that unless the package spent a day or two at the vendor's address en route. It looks from your tracking advice that it did actually come directly from WM. Curious how it went to Oakland before Japan Hey, she must have been on a world tour or just fancied a trip to Japan. I don't blame her.solyaris wrote:So, does this mean even though it was manufactured in Shenzhen, it is then shipped to the vendor's address in US, before it arrived at my place?Thanks for the info, so it was from a vendor to your address.

Re: Damage on barely used doll
Furthermore, my vendor's located in Georgia, so that nulls the theory that it went to vendor, before my shipment arrived. (unless this said vendor has a FedEx facility in nearby Memphis TN..)
Perhaps you're right then - my doll has a Japanese fetish and just wanted to visit there
