What did you order:Normal Skin boy body
When did you order:I think the week of halloween, if not a week before.
How was the communication:There really wasnt any. I know these things take time. I ordered and paid and waited.
How easy was it to pay:Made the order, left a message on the board and paid with paypal. Pretty easy.
Shipping:He shipped pretty quick...2-3 weeks, but then the shipping itself was...two weeks for EMS shipping.
Quality: Resin is really nice, body poses rather well...love the optional parts >_<
Did the item look like the sales pictures:Yes
Comments:My order shipped the 5th...and i was only able to get information on the 7th, and then nothing, and i waited, cause typical EMS is 3 - 5 days for shipping. But this ended up taking two weeks to arrive, and when I contacted her about not being able to track it, and what was a normal wait on arriving, i didnt hear anything from them. I checked the next morning and it was through customs and at my house.

When did you order? Sept 12
How was the communication? Good, they always replied within 24hrs of emailing them.
How easy was it to pay? Easy with paypal.
How long did it take to ship? Two months. Supposedly it was held back because the clothes are made to order.
Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Body yes, clothes not really. The shirt wasn't very good quality at all, but coat and pants were nice.

Were you satisfied with the product? Body yes, outfit kinda
If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? Didn't bother chasing it up.

How easy was it to pay? Easy with Paypal
How long did it take to ship? 6 weeks
Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Of the doll and bust piece, yes, the dress, no.

Were you satisfied with the product? With the doll and bust piece yes, with the dress no
If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? I didn´t contact them about it, after the previous experience it isn´t worth the hassle. But I will keep it in mind for the future.

* What did you order? Blank NS Jade head (it was originally tanned skin, but I changed my order)
* When did you order? I paid on June 18th, but payment was confirmed on June 23rd.
* How was the communication? I tried to get in contact a few days after confirmation to change my order (from TS to NS), and successfully got a hold of them about two days later (I left messages in the Guestbook, BBS, and e-mail). Communication was good and I was answered frequently and clearly. I know they don't do refunds (NS is less expensive than tanned skin), so I asked them if I could get a wig instead to offset the cost of changing the resin colour. They said it was fine and they had no problem in doing so.
* How easy was it to pay? Easy, via Paypal.
* How long did it take to ship? I was surprised as I didn't receive a shipping notice, but she came in today! She was sent out on July 10th (according to the postage) and arrived on July 14th. This is the quickest I have ever received anything via EMS China (usually takes around 5-10 business days), so I am shocked! She arrived 15 business days from the day I received my order confirmation and was shipped in under two weeks!
* Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Yes! She is stunning! The wig is really nice quality as well!
* Did the item look like the sales pictures? Yes!
* Were you satisfied with the product? Yes!
* If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? N/A
* Would you order from this company again? Yes!
* Would you buy this company's products second-hand? I already have and would do so again!

[satyrsmoon]

What did you order?
Spiritdoll Proud Cyathea, NS with faceup

When did you order?
March 24 on layaway, finished paying May 17 (and that was the day they begun casting).

How was the communication?
Pretty slow reply on the forum, guestbook, and email.

How easy was it to pay?
Easy. Sent money through Paypal.

How long did it take to ship?
Shipped out on July 4. Arrived July 12.

Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion?
Pretty good quality. The body is impressively sculpted.

Did the item look like the sales pictures?
Not really. The lips are painted a lot more faint in real life, and the eyebrows are also painted a lot closer together, and much darker.

Were you satisfied with the product?
Not quite. The head is a different skin tone (looks to be WS) than the body (NS).


If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem?
I didn't notify them of it as I figured it was a long enough wait and that I could live with the flaws (love her despite all of them).

Would you order from this company again?
I'm leaning towards no for now.

Would you buy this company's products second-hand?
Depends on the condition of the item.

[Tagi]

* What did you order?
Normal skin Cycas with face-up and a pair of jeans

Finished the lay away on august the 19th

Hit and Miss. At one time it took Spirit over two weeks to confirm a layaway payment. But they always did reply in the end. I also requested to change Cycas from white to normal skin midway through paying off the layaway and they did so happily.

* How easy was it to pay?
The cc and non cc paypal address comes off as a bit amature, but it isn't difficult to pay.

* How long did it take to ship?
Almost exactly a month

Yes Some quibbles with the face-up but nothing overly negative.

[Ryuichi Sakuma 13]

What did you order? 2nd version Proud body and Jointed hands.
When did you order? March 9th, 2011CE
How was the communication? Sucked. They didn't say anything at all and only acknowledged me when I asked if there was any problem with my paypal payment, and then they only changed my status from "pending" to "paid."
How easy was it to pay? Very! Paypaled the money and was done.
How long did it take to ship? I ordered Tatsuha's body on March 9th, and got it April 30th, for a total of 53 days, WAY sooner than I was expecting!
Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? DEFINITELY! He's BEAUTIFUL and the optional parts realistic!
Did the item look like the sales pictures? The pics don't do this body justice, he's WAY more gorgeous IRL!
Were you satisfied with the product? EXCEEDINGLY so!
If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? Like I mentioned before, communications sucked. Other than that, I have no problems!

What did you order? Spritdoll Rouge
When did you order? 6th Feb 2011
How was the communication? Poor
How easy was it to pay? I was easy to pay but it would be nice to have a link from the checkout
How long did it take to ship? over 3 months
Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? The doll is good but the make up I paid for had overspray on the chest stencil and the faceup is not symmetrical. The wig was also incredibly fuzzy and unusable - not nicely curled like in the photos. It was only good for the bin. I managed to clean up the chest, I wiped the face up and redid it and I replaced the wig with a better quality one.
Did the item look like the sales pictures? No. The painted heart was twice the size of the one pictured.The clothing was well made.
Were you satisfied with the product? Overall I am happy with the base body but I wouldn't pay for a face up or wig again
If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? I emailed the company and they said sorry about that. I emailed them back and asked if I could receive some credit back for the poor painting at least and heard nothing back from them since. I also posted on their board and they didn't answer either. I don't think I will deal with them again
