I have enough money for a new dollieh, but...

Postby Lamia of the Dark » Tue Oct 23, 2012 12:30 am

I don't which one to pick :shock:

There are so many I want that I just don't know which one to go for...

The only one I want that I definitely CAN'T afford right now is the Dollzone Alpha that I have been coveting ever since I first laid eyes on him.

I don't know whether to go for a new MSD or just get some of the little Obitsus or Hujoos that I already have plans for...

If I want to order from Junkyspot, this week would be a good time to do it, but I can't decide who I want.

T__T this is such a weird problem for me because I usually decide pretty easily.

Can you do a lay-a-way on the doll you really want? Or maybe buy something new for the dolls you already have? Seems to me that the $$$ are better spent on a doll that really moves you than just spent to spend on dolls you don't really want. I admit I've been known to do that. Buy a doll that I'm only so-so on just to spend the $10 that's in my pocket but I really try not to do that anymore. It only leads to having dolls that I'm not really attached to and that get hardly no time out of the storage boxes in the end. It's a waste of money. I'd rather buy clothes or whatever for dolls I have. Makes more sense....

high five

money burning a hole in my wallet. 2 dolls Ireally want but I have some questions about payment that I'm waiting to hear back from one company. I kinda hoping that I would have at least one new doll for my birthday next year.

right now I have enough for a Soulddoll vito whose face I'm a little bit iffy about. If I can hold out till my salary comes around next month, i may get a shot at Iplehouse Dexter

If you can hold out a little longer you just might be able to get that Dollzone Alpha if he's not a limited

Keep saving for the Alpha, especially if the other dolls aren't going away, and Dollzone is bound to have an Xmas event. I waited for one to get my BB Lily and got her a free doll of her own :)

Saving for Dr Elebenty and not touching his money was hard but I felt so proud I survived and the extra I had put aside to cover shipping and taxes, not needed, can put a dent in another doll.

Yep - I'd definitely say wait. It's probably usually the time that's right and the money's not, but this sounds like the other way around :) Maybe in a few days you'll see a new picture of one of the dolls you want and you'll know it's the one to go for. I was torn between three before Iplehouse released the one I ended up ordering, and boy was I glad I waited :D

MOC has a 6 month layaway plan. Maybe you could use your lump sum as a first payment for Alpha?

Alpha is one of my favorites, too. As much as I do like all of my dolls, I do sometimes look at a few of them and wish I had saved the money I spent on them so I could have afforded him instead.

But, maybe you'll find someone cheaper that you like just as much if not more if you look around a bit. Go with your gut.

I actually will probably not buy Alpha until JunkySpot has him in stock again, because I am impatient at waiting for my dolls to get here...

And I'm not sure I'm ready for an SD yet.

<_< I think I'm going to go ahead and grab one of the MSD kids I've been eyeing...

EDIT: T__T no I'm not, because the ones I wanted are out of stock at JS. I'm going to go ahead and grab another little Obitsu, though.

If JS might have to order him any way then think about saving for an event doll. We should know soon enough and if you don't want to keep the prize sell it.

I would wait. Besides - Sweet Dolls Allison is at Junkyspot and hopefully Emory will list him soon. Emory will be getting dolls in, and there might even be a preorder event.

I'd say save for your dream doll too! Nothing like getting what you REALLY want. Way more worth it than lots of lesser items.
