That photo is adorable - Max is such a unique little cutiepie. <3
Kinda stinks that the customizer you had in line didn't let you know that there would be a wait...kind of unprofessional, really. :( Hopefully you can find the right one for Rayna without a fuss!
I'm so glad I got Max when I did, the website he came from doesn't appear to exist anymore. :O He's just really nifty.
Well, the customizer wrote me back and she wants me to send the head in about a week. So that's fine, I'd rather just know a time table instead of wondering how long it's going to take. Once she gets it her website claims it takes less then two weeks for her to finish and send it back so at least I'll know how long that takes.
I love the little blossoming "romance" between Max and Penelope. So cute! hehe
I actually haven't had to deal with other customisers (that you had to pay. just zerohour269, but that's because she's a friend lol) yet. I did tell zerohour269 that if I somehow failed to achieve in getting my future Chic-line Lishe's face-up, then I'd send her to her; which I don't mind since she's so close.
I've got the customizer issue figured out. She wants the head in about a week and Rayna should be back home in two weeks or less after that. I'm so excited!
I had a similar experience selling Amandine. I listed her on DoA, and I had two or three inquiries the next time I logged on. I arranged to do a layaway, but the buyer managed to pay her off in 3 days. Hey, it worked for me! LTFs typically sell really fast, so I knew you'd have no trouble selling her.
I agree with Amanda, I think that's unprofessional of the customizer to not state that she had a waiting list on ALL of her customizing posts. I don't necessarily think you're being impatient, especially since you requested her services under the (logical) assumption there wouldn't be a wait. Regardless of whether or not you decide to stick with this customizer, I think you should let her know that she does not state in her DM post or her website that she has a waiting list. A waiting list is something I know I'd consider if I ever was looking at getting a doll customized.
I was hoping Finn would sell quickly but I was a little worried because on DoA I checked a few WTB ads for LittleFee and a bunch of them said stuff like they wanted any mold except Bisou. I was worried I had the reject of LittleFees. :P But no, the buyer sounded really excited to get her so it all turned out great. :D
I did hear back from the customizer and she wants the head in about a week so now that I have an actual time table I feel a lot more comfortable. I may mention to her about updating her wait list on DM and her website, just to avoid any confusion for future business. Her work looks excellent so regardless of the wait I'm really excited to see how Rayna turns out (but still slightly nerve wracking because I don't know how she's going to look at all). XD
Haha, "reject of LittleFees." That made me laugh :) I definitely think there are LTF molds that are more popular (like Ante), but I still think that any LTF will sell well, since they are SO popular and different people have different tastes, you know? Anyways, I'm glad you got her sold :)
Oh, a week's not so bad. I thought it might be closer to two or three. I think mentioning the wait list is still a good idea. It could legitimately be that she just forgot to update her DM post and her website (I know I've done things like that in the past). I'm excited to see Rayna, too. I'm sure that whatever happens, she'll be fabulous :D
I would think Ante is definitely the most popular LittleFee. By the way, did you see the new Puki Ante? So cute! I'm kind of tempted but I already have a PukiFee Ante. I still kind of wish they'd make a Bisou in PukiFee size, then I could get her again but in a size I like. :P
I think with the customizer she may have her services posted in so many locations she can't keep them all updated.
