I've looked at tons of dolls online for years and i think i finally found the perfect one for me, but i'm worried she may not be as awesome as i hope x___X

I'm thinking of buying from this distributor on ebay http://myworld.ebay.ca/liwenjie0310/?_trksid=p4340.l2559

Has anyone bought from them before?

the doll i'm specifically looking at is Anona from doll-love. They seem to have the best deal on her i've been able to find but i'm worried it might not be a good place to by from because they spelled her name "Arona". Is it possible it's a recast?

It'd be great if anyone can tell me anything more about this seller, or somewhere else to find her for a similar price with a face eyes and wig if possible x_x.

Also~ does anyone know what her pose-ability is like?

Also also~ if you think you know of a girl doll i may like in the 150-225 price range please suggest it~

The only eBay seller I know and have experience buying BJDs from is jeeryama. I don't know who this "Arona" seller is, but I rarely see them misspelled like that :/

I suggest you get it from someplace like MOC, which has it for the same price (and in-stock if you just want the pink body only) and has a good reputation.

Maybe that eBay seller has a good reputation as well, but I don't have the experience to say for sure.

Good luck getting your first doll

That particular seller is listed as being in China - which is probably why the name is spelled wrong. Doesn't mean they are a recast seller or anything, just that they didn't type the name right. Den of Angels has a very comprehensive list of safe sellers that I would always recommend consulting before buying from anyone on Ebay.

Or you can do as Dee suggested and go with MintonCard. They are an excellent seller that I have always had good experiences with. If they have the doll in stock then you'll get it right away. They also do Layaway which makes my bank account very happy LOL

I think Liwenjie is fair game. I told her that she spelled Anona's name wrong over a year ago though, she thanked me but didn't change it

Yeah i thought that too, I'm just worried it may indicate a knock off x_X

I've never been on den of angels XD i hear everyone mentioning but its apparently invite only x.x

And mint on card is actually where i first saw her, but its an extra $35 for a face up and doesn't have a wig so from there shes slightly out of my price range x_x|| which is kind of why i started trying to find her other places because i heard some sellers throw in extras like wigs and face ups X__x

i found another on ebay with a similar offer here ~>http://www.ebay.ca/itm/DollLove-Anona-1-4-BJD-MSD-girl-FREE-face-up-fur-wig-/300539252172?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item45f9890dcc#ht_12442wt_729

Have you bought any dolls from her? =o

Yup, it's invite only. You can still get a lot of info from there without needing an account though (it's what I do!)

I did some quick research on those two eBay sellers, and they both seem to have a not-so-clean history:

It seems liwenjie0310 is a legit doll love seller (or was at the time of that post), but also has a history of illegally selling sculpts.

Most of this is a few years old, so maybe they've cleaned up their acts, but :/

Nope, I haven't, but I've wanted to order from her so I've read a lot of feedback. I too have read about the illegal recasts but I think that was a looong time ago. She's definitely an official dealer for Doll Love.

wa20091122 is an iffy seller. I don't know that I'd buy a doll from them as I think they have been accused of selling recasts in the past. I've bought some eyes and boots and things from them, but never a doll. Honestly, I've never bought a doll from anyone on Ebay - I just have a mistrust of people that I cannot identify as a legitimate dealer.

Oh, I missed the bit about wa20091122, yeah, you don't wanna buy from them.

Hmmmm its nice to hear liwenjie0310's an official seller for doll love... but I'm kind of worried about her history.

She has 99.7% positive feed back. So that probably means something. She also doesn't seem to be selling Dolkot anymore so that's also a good sign. It seems like I might be safe buying from her but i definitely should do more research before i decide anything x_x|| I wish i knew where to find someone who's actually ordered from her.
I'm considering it if i can't find something better x_X

and yeah, i definitely wont be buying from wa20091122.
