Can anyone tell me anything about this doll? Whether it's TPE or silicone?

This is the so very popular wm-140 D cup with head #36 as captured in all her glory by the incredibly talented Mandos.
She is TPE.

:whistle:

Hi Citlinho_75,

Yep, ZD beat me to it. Here's more photos: http://wmdollshop.com/47-ft-d-cup/

All WM dolls are TPE.

Thanks for the notes. It is that I saw in a seller with the measures: Bust 64cm - Waist 40cm and Hip 64cm for 135cm height body. Someone has doll pictures with these measures so I have a better idea. For in the WM description the measures are larger.

EDIT: and YES, what Dexter said below is true. Stick with TDF's vendors and you'll get the doll you want.. http://www.dollforum.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=210

That's a red flag where bogus sellers will use pictures of a different doll. Always use a trusted vendor that is listed on this site. Or at least post the listing in the Scam section and have people determine the legitimacy. Another warning is if they use the term "silicone" when showing any WM doll.

Definitely a huge red flag

If the seller advertises a wm doll as silicone it only shows that they themselves know absolutely nothing about the product that they are supposedly carrying.
It goes double if the measurements are vastly different from what is listed on WM's website.
Like the fine gentlemen above me said, best stick with a TDF approved vendor.


:wink:

Not that big of a red flag if its merely listed that way. Check for other red flags to corroborate.

Calling a WM Dolls as a "silicone" or a "silicone TPE" doll may just merely be search engine stacking, as silicone is much more widely known than TPE. For every search of "TPE sex doll", there's probably 20 of "silicone sex doll". So I actually wouldn't worry too much if they say silicone if the rest of the article is clear (right dimensions, right weight, and the term TPE somewhere in there.) Some sellers might also simply not know the difference.

I'd still recommend sticking to TDF approved vendors for new doll purchases though. This advice only applies to pre-owned.

The ad says: "100% Silicone TPE with metal skeleton". I'll keep an eye on the tips to continue my research.

Doll purchased! Let's see if I will not have problems with customs here. When I get here, I'll post it. I look forward to seeing my first TPE realistic doll.

Unfortunately the customs here barred the import and the doll returned to the sender. The item is not restricted here. But they were wrong in the classification. I had a loss of almost 200 USD. Customs fucking here! If pass is 110% value of the purchase tax! I think that nowhere else in the world is there an import tax as abusive and immoral as here! :shakefist:

Where is here, as to me this sounds like an issue or a customs mistake (unless you in Africa), and who did you buy through, if I can ask?

OK ...WOW...you guys have a lot of import taxes, so it is important you can determine the classification of the goods and any exemptions that can be applied.

Check out these links

http://www.braanz.com/exporting-to-braz ... es-tariffs

https://customsdutyfree.com/brazil-cust ... on-method/

http://thebrazilbusiness.com/article/ho ... -and-taxes

On a quick read, the wost case scenario appeared to be 60 percent of the customs value (outrageous, but did not seem to be 110 percent), perhaps I missed something, and there is likely to be dutyfree exemptions, so get in contact with those guys in the last link for clarification.

Let us know what you come up with, as other potential Brazilian Clients may also be interested.

The irony is you can rent a real girl for a far lot less over there (that is why old mate Mike makes his movies there!), just watch out for those Sao Paulo ones, they have got a bit extra GOING ON :wink: but stunning all the same :thumbs_up: and those Favela gals are a bit on the wild side :lol:
