How to Buy

 
 

 

You can purchase the Dark Castle Dolls through a wait list. There will be a wait list for each different standard skin tone, you can sign up for all three if you like. The standard skin tones are pale, natural, and blue. Blue is not available this first month tho, sorry. :{ Each doll is strung and if you want me to I will hot glue suede him for you.

How it works: Each month I will take the name at the top of each list and ask them if they are interested in purchasing a doll. There will be at least one doll of each skin tone available(except for this month there is no blue). The buyer has the choice of which head they would like depending on what is available at that time. If you aren't interested or aren't able to buy that month you keep your place and I will go to the next person on the list. Once you buy a doll your name will be removed from that Skin tone List unless you want to be re-added at the bottom.

Here's an example of how it works:

Buyer A is on the list for natural skin and blue skin. Their name for the natural skin tone list comes up first and they decide to purchase the doll. Their name is erased from that list, but they keep their place on the blue skin list.

The following month their name comes up on the blue skin list because the first two people on the list declines. Buyer A decides not to purchase at this time either and declines the doll. They and the two people in front of them stay in their positions at 1, 2 and 3 in line while the doll goes to the fourth person. The next month person 1 is offered a doll again and the process starts over.

Pricing:
The dolls are $570 each plus shipping. Each doll comes with 1 fur wig, 1 random color glass eye, and either black or white marble eyes. They will also have either bags or pillows, nothing fancy, but something for them to snuggle with one their way to you. :3

Layaway info:
I AM allowing layaway. However, for layaway the dolls are $600, two payments of $300. The first payment is due at the time of the order and the second is due within two weeks, first payment is non-refundable. I know that stuff happens unexpectedly in life and if it looks like you can't make the second payment then please let me know as soon as you can!

Wait time: It takes me about a month to make the dolls. Please allow me this amount of time to complete your doll.

If you want just a head or a body you can probably find someone to split it with. At this time I can't do one or the other simply because of how little resin I have.

Shipping is $14 in the US and $40 world wide. I will most likely be using Global Priority unless you request otherwise- in which case shipping could be more expensive. I may change to another form of shipping if I find something that's less of a hassle for me.

I take paypal or money order. Money orders MUST be overnighted to me. I have lost too many money orders to mailing problems otherwise. I can take cc or regular paypal, no fees to you.


Please email me at batchix at yahoo dot com if you would like to be on the wait list.

First Batch Hatching- Option of the original chest piece, seen here, or the new chest piece which I don't have a finished photo of, hopefully sometime next week I will. For now here it is in it's rough state(uncast). The new chest piece has a slightly thicker rib cage and shoulders and a shorter slightly thicker neck. They also have the new knees which support the doll better. The only head available at this time is Timmian. Zero and the vampire head need some work before they're ready.

I am HOPING that I'll be able to do a second batch this month, but I don't know yet. This first batch is sort of a test to see just how many I can get done from the amount of resin I've ordered. THEN I'll have a better idea of what's going on!
