More effort should be made to produce a lightweight doll instead of wasting resources on producing this AI head...other company's are jumping on this bandwagon which is just a glorified
Alexa! Plus apps...and a lot cheaper
Think Matt has lost the plot with this endevour...

Cost of everything keeps going up and Realdoll has to stay profitable.
They are the best doll on the market and will continue to be, and that's their niche so I don't think increasing the price will hurt them.
And considering how swamped with orders they are now, a price increase will bring them to more manageable levels.

Abyss has some of the highest quality dolls on the market, partly due to individually hand-made products i.e. not massed produced. There's not a just good-enough doll coming out of Abyss. As the doll market expands they will always have a share. Their share will stay the same size, but with the larger pool of buyer there will be enough buyers who can afford RealDolls.
Yep I don't like higher prices, but I paid more for my two BT's than what they are going for (well at least till April 5th). I can't buy everything I want in life, just have to set priorities.

Harmony will start full production on April 15th, the first head will ship end of May-beginning of June. Right now you can get 10% off the Harmony head if you pre-order now! After April 15th the 10% off will no longer be offered...Zaborg wrote:Does this mean harmony is gonna be fully released in april?
Re: REALDOLL PRICE INCREASES APRIL 5th
Abyss has not shared the increase with me yet. But, I have seen their numbers and I believe it will be substantial. They were hit with raw material increases due to the tariffs being levied on China. Also they are having to increase wages to maintain the talent they have presently. A lot of man hrs go into making these dolls, that's not going to change if they want to maintain the level of realism Matt McMullin requires for the dolls going out the door...siliconelover wrote:HotDiggityDoll wrote: They are the best doll on the market and will continue to be, and that's their niche so I don't think increasing the price will hurt them.

Let's remember Abyss had LOWERED dolls prices by about $1,000 not long ago. AND, just last month Zebo helped negotiate some additional discounts for TDF members.

Let's appreciate that he has been able to give us this heads up. If you were on the fence, you can get your doll at the current price! Given the circumstances it is certainly understandable that Abyss cannot maintain the lower price. No one likes this, I can't imagine this was an easy decision for Matt or anyone at Abyss.
How many people stepped up and thanked Abyss for lowering the prices last year?

Thanks TJ for your input and I really appreciate your kind words for me. I really try to do the best I can for this community, I am fully vested in the doll life. For me there is no other way , and I am very happy. I will always try and help fellow owners and newbies find their slice of happinessTJ_Foxx wrote:Hi All, Lets' remember Zebo is our Ambassador to Abyss. He does this as a volunteer and is NOT compensated for his time unless HE BUYS SOMETHING! He has to buy his stuff too, see the link below. Though, I admit I am a bit jelly that he gets to go ogle and caress all those lovely dollies quite often.
