>>6094914>How much money have you spent in total on your collection?...I...I honestly don't know.
I mostly collect SD+ dolls, my dolls all wear expensive stuff too (i.e. custom angora wigs, urethane eyes etc.).
At this point I am sure I have already passed the 10000$ mark (incl. shit I sold again, but I've been in the hobby since 2008 too).
I don't buy/sell dolls often though.
>What is the average price you pay for a doll?I'd say on average it's something between 500-600$ for a blank doll, I managed to make some really good deals just with being patient and willing to wait, that lowers the average a lot.
>What was the most/least you've ever paid for a doll?Full doll, my Iple EID guy was nearly 900$ due their CDS fee and the dark skintone.
Cheapest was probably that one DZ critter I own (~100$).
Heads are a different thing; 600$ for a Volks head, 80$ for a mint, legit Soom Heliot head through pure luck.
>How many dolls do you own?16 full dolls, 2 rolling heads, one rolling body (yeah) + two heads that will never get a body.
On top of that I have a Pure Neemo and six Blythe.
>How much do you usually pay for a faceup?Nothing, paint them myself.
>What brands/makers are your favourites and least favourites?Granado, Iplehouse, Volks, LLT, classic Soom (only a few faces though) and some of the head artists like Edelweiss, Nabarro, ChrisNoel. DZ/DC is cool for some of their creations, but their faces suck.
For the rest, Freedom Teller, Oscar, Dollflower, Enchanted (only their Unique pairs though), Cadenza, Nalisinko, AyuAna, Sadol, Rocking Horse, Tous le Garcons.
Least favourite are goofy looking companies like Miro, AoD, Resinsoul, DOD due their aesthetic and Dollshe/Fairyland for the way they handle business/their customers.
