The Doll Forum

Hello everyone, long time lurker of TDF. I've had an interest for quite a while and now that I'm in a position where I can keep and afford doll. After a couple weeks of catching up on the forums as well as searching through many many sites (many likely scams) and using google image search I narrowed it down to a model which Beautiful Dolls carries. I've finally went through and placed the order with Joy, who was quite helpful. In the end I decided on the Tilda with the A36 head. I'm so excited, and looking forward to receiving the factory pics from Joy.

It's been a while since my posted on the forums and thought it would be nice to share my experience with the people that helped to guide my decisions and keep me away from the sketchy sites. Thank you TDF and thanks to everyone here.

Good for you
Looking forward to seeing pics of your lady!

I am New to this site as well. I been really looking into getting a doll. I want to get something thats next best to the real doll. Does anyone have any suggestions from what vendor or manufacturer(s) make the best dolls. I want a full size doll thats very realistic looking and more north american or european looking. Please help in any way. I am new to this and am very exciting to get my first doll. I seen many i really love and wish to get. I just wanna make sure i get what i am paying for.

I will make sure to send you photos to confirm!

Thanks so much Joy, I'm super excited. I've been going over any care and maintenance threads and articles that I find. Ha, I'm already worried about taking care of it..

I have received confirmation and await tracking info. The anticipation is killing me, lol. Can't wait!

Update: Mailed out and tracking, thanks to Joy! Now I paw at my phone constantly watching it's progress, lol.

She has arrived! Oh bliss, I am so happy with my purchase. I was a little worried buying on the cheaper end of the spectrum at $950, but as a first time buyer I think I have made a good choice. The only issue is the start of a very tiny tear on her back, possibly where the injectors were, but only noticeable when pressure is applied to her back. Thank you Joy and thank you TDF. I am now a happy doll owner too!

Congratulations TasteTester01! Welcome to the fam, wishing you much happiness with your new lady.

Congratulations. I'm a bit jealous. I've been interested in getting a doll for 10+ years. I'm finally in a position where I can actually do it.

Woo! Congrats TasteTester!
