Ali Express
One does have to read carefully and understand that they are going to get TPE no matter what the ad states. And a little more careful reading to make sure they are not ordering an inflatable with representative photos.
After reading through so many sites and emails from vendors, the real retail value of a life size TPE doll is only around $1200 to $1400 USD.
If you see a life size silicone doll for $800, that is not the valid retail value sucker.
It seems the cheap TPE dolls are so numerous and only made by a few manufactures that they are now an inexpensive commodity. The number of resellers that drop ship is ridiculous.
Resellers at this point have nothing to add to the product and what they do add is hype and lies.
I look at the same TPE dolls on Ali Express selling at commodity prices. I have purchased from Ali Express before and know there is buyer protection similar to eBay. I know they interchange TPE with Silicone and use the same stock or pirated photos from the manufacturer. But cutting through the sales BS I can expect an inexpensive TPE Doll at what it is actually worth. If Ali Express protection is worth anything I will be protected if they send anything other than what the picture shows. Then I have PayPal as another layer of protection.
I am almost tempted to quit fussing over silicone and the aesthetic doll details and just buy a decent looking TPE doll for $1200 to $1400 on Ali Express and hope I get at least 2 years out of it.

Re: Ali Express
Check first with any of the vendors in here - I personally recommend 1 am and SiliDolls since I have bought from them before. If you don't like any of the offerings, then go with Ali...and hope for the best

Re: Ali Express
You should also not just get any doll because it's cheaper , this doll will be with you for a long time and you want someone who you will fall for, to think about and look forward to coming home to. You will cloth her, take care of all the dolls needs and watch films with her in your arms. You don't want to be thinking I wish I waited and got a better doll because that will ruin everything. A doll is a big purchase and it should not be rushed, you should save your cash and get a quality doll that you will be happy with or you'll end up disappointed and be another victim of the scammers out there.
Re: Ali Express
At heart I want the Fabric Anime Doll but my lower brain screams out for Silicone.
Maybe that is what I am really posting about.
I looked at the AliExpress dolls in frustration. Thinking to save a few bucks over something a part of me does not want.
This is driving me nuts.

Maybe this one could be the best option for you - from a TDF vendor.

Re: Ali Express
That Anime Silicone Doll is only 90cm, I need a life size doll. And one that can wear standard clothing.

Re: Ali Express
I understand your frustration cyclist, we all have dreams and fantasies of what we want. Can you get an anime head and fit it on a standard doll or am I being stupid here? Also, silicone is quite a bit firmer than TPE in most cases. There are exceptions of course but think about what 'feel' you want from your doll.

I have linked that Silicone Anime doll to you before. IT'S NOT 90cm!
The height of that doll is 160cm, (or 155cm - 5'1", I double checked to make sure), check this link out for yourself: (https://www.passiondolls.com/product/an ... e-yukino-a)
Doesn't she perfectly fit your needs?

Re: Ali Express
Some get almost all bad ratings for their dolls and good ratings for cheap stuff and so get a good positive percentage.
Others get fake reviews for their dolls and sometimes even for fake articles.
Fake good reviews are often from buyers where you can't see what they bought else. With LOMMNY, a new doll seller on Aliexpress, almost all reviews are private while the usual ratio is about 50%. Also, the only one where you see what the customer also bought is a buyer who also bought fake articles from AYIYUN, a company that rips off customers all the time. So LOMMNY for example, even with all great reviews, seems to be an obvious scam artist.
Also read the positive reviews, sometimes a buyer has been scammed and gives a four or five star review anyway, only mentioning that he got a different doll.
LOMMNY even has a lot of $1 fake articles "for sale" right now. They get good, fake reviews and then they are deleted. All you see later in the review history is that a "135cm-27kg Silicone Sex Doll" got a five star review.
