From my understanding beautifuldolls is not a manufacturer she is the middleman/woman
and has "contacts" in China where she can get these dolls at a reduced price (and probably makes a few $$ for herself)which is only reasonable and if the client saves a few $$$ then all is good. As she does not stock these dolls she can only rely on the the original manufacturer photos to post here.
MrGrey & vinz both members here have bought and recieved dolls from beautifuldolls in fact Mr Grey has bought a second doll from her and probably has recived it by now and im sure a review is pending.
I agree some posts are sketchy at best but she has 2 new websites in development so thing should improve, i also belive a lot of her posts are to gauge the interest in a particular doll to see if it would be worthwhile pusuing said doll.
I bought a doll direct from China (BIG MISTAKE) on my part, only wish i had ordered from beautifuldolls instead as she could mediate between buyer and seller to solve any problems.
