1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

      Also, one fourth of the total number of Saturday badges and almost one third of the total number of Sunday badges available...are sold.

      I did not think it possible...but I think if things keep going like they are I may actually sell completely out way before the actual date. =S

      Also...Don't forget to make payment!! If payment is not received before 15 days after confirmation the tickets will be canceled and resold.
       
    18. The last vendor's table is being held for AoD US distributor. If they are unable to come it will go back up for sale but at this moment ALL vendor's booths are reserved.

      Two Tea Party tickets are being held for Moony. If they are unable to come NO MORE TEA PARTY TICKETS WILL BE AVAILABLE! The Tea Party is over-booked as it is and I will accept no more registrations that request Tea Party tickets.

      In other words...
      Vendor's booths are sold out!
      Tea Party Tickets are sold out!

      In addition HALF of the Sunday tickets are gone!
