Buyer Beware!

Post by Wlowe1 »

I used to have two beautiful neo classic teddy-babes, a Vikki and a Sabrina, who both kept me company for over a decade. Tragically, I lost them both in a fire and I have been trying to find dolls to fill the void left in my life ever since.

While searching online, I came across Vibeshop.com who offered a classic teddy-babe for a relatively low price.

Encouraged, I took the plunge and paid the price. Then I eagerly awaited delivery, only to get this!

It was straight from Eighth Wonder as well. I was disappointed to say the least. And I suspect that Bedroomjoys.com would do the same thing. In my opinion, the swivel leg model makes these doll look deformed and unattractive. But that's just me.

Anyway, if any of you would like to take this swivel leg 5ft 5in doll off my hands, please PM me. I am willing to part with it for less that what Eighth wonder sells these for.

They never look like the prototypes they have on their site as sale models.

That's why I ultimately decided on a different manufacturer. Based on the ad photos I was all set to order, but then owner photos started showing up on TDF. Nothing at all like they appear on the website. Especially the Dianna model which is much darker than shown and to this day they're still using pics of the older deluxe model, which IMO, gives a false impression of the current body style... :|

The pre 2020 models had only one problem for me: hole-placement.
With some effort that was fixed.
The factory photos were retouched but rather accurate.
You liked Lisa? Here is my Lisa without retouch with her buddy Amber.
(Using flash eliminates shadows, makes the stich-lines disappear.)

It looked deformed as a Jessica because they sent you an Akiko.
I tried my best to reshape the head. It no longer looks like an egg, but they never make the head bigger like they did the body.
