OP here

[(Anonymous)]

Ahaha, yes. Thank you!!

Sincerely, I kind of think that as well when I see other people's pictures - if they're saying "so, my doll is a recast (but I like them regardless)" and enjoying themselves, not flaunting at all I think... they're not trying to scam anyone and they probably got that because they didn't know better/were gifted/etc. so I think, you do you. IMO it IS different from flaunting recast dolls, owning 0 legits and saying they're all legit when prompted. Anyway, I get being anti-recast but ACTIVELY seeking people who just wanted to have fun to bully, that is... IDGI really. So I don't see myself ever wanting to associate with those people even if I am very much pro-artist myself. :/ But coming from a fandom where people shame even legit dolls for being "ugly"/"weird"/basically unexpensive, I shouldn't be surprised. Sigh.

Yeah, sadly. It seems that many local legit BJD owners purchased them while travelling abroad, or through someone who did, whether from the secondhand market or by ordering them and asking them to be delivered while they(/a relative/friend) are abroad. One of my friends was planning on going to Japan just before COVID-19 happened and I thought of asking them to get an used/unassembled BJD on Mandarake or something. That seemed to be the way to go for me, but this COVID-19 induced worldwide "lockdown" is making me even more anxious about it, because... who knows when anyone will be able to do that now. Probably not anytime soon lol.

Thank you SO much!! That's so nice, and I hope you can enjoy your hobby peacefully and just have fun with it too. ♥ Sending you the best.

You probably won't see this, as it's like. A month and a half old. And things happened that prevented me from replying.

I agree. So long as there's up-front about things, then there's no reason to be up in arms over it. I completely agree! Yeah. I've "stalked" the community for a long time, and seen the ugly of the entitled arrogance. There are lots of good, too! But, yeah.

Oh no ;; That's terrible timing! There ARE third party websites that you can use (https://www.biginjap.com/en/content/16-forwarding-terms is one, iirc), if you don't mind the shipping wait due to Covid.

Thank you!! I hope you can find a peaceful corner in the comm and get the doll(s) you'd most enjoy~! ♥ !
