Does not effect anyone who is already ordered and in the queue, they wont get pushed back because of new orders... New orders get added to the end of the list. Abyss has already taken steps to start reducing the productions time by various things such as getting more molds for the popular bodyF. Abyss knows their queue times have been high, by the way it's only because of their great quality of product and popularity, but I don't think they would have started another sales without having a good feeling about being able to deliver within a reasonable time. Most people who plan to spend that kinda money do the research and figure out how long they can expect to be in the production queue, if they are fine with it then I don't see the problem.synthetik wrote:Not sure I understand the holiday sale logic here, given that Abyss is already taking about 25 weeks to deliver an order. Is now really the time to increase demand? Doesn't seem fair to those already in the queue. Just sayin'...

It's still a little weird. If you follow that logic, it would argue that Abyss is comfortable with a 20-25 week production queue. Which isn't really a great service when you're competing with Chinese manufacturers with a fifth the lead time.Rocky-DollStacey wrote:Does not effect anyone who is already ordered and in the queue, they wont get pushed back because of new orders...

Normally when a business has a big back-up of orders, increasing capacity is a typical response, and that's what they've been doing, however it seems like it's not working since queue times are increasing. In spite of which, they extended the sale, which is counter-intuitive.
The best theory I've got is that they extended the sale in order to raise the capital to increase capacity even more. Which is good news for the business, but a little troubling from a cash-flow perspective. Of course, it's possible that normal business financing options aren't available to a doll manufacturer, but still...

Chinese manufactures and tpe dolls are in no way a good comparison to the quality of RD dolls. There is a reason why Abyss customers don't have a problems spending the money they do on RD dolls, they want the best of the best. Chinese Manufactures also have 100s of workers, Abyss is a small company with a handful of skilled employees and they prefer to stay a small company.Peregrination wrote:It's still a little weird.

I have unlocked the topic but I am going to ask you to remember the topic and not hijack the thread. Abyss has an excellent history of quality products and customer service as evidenced by feedback from our members. Let's remember to share our experiences rather than conjecture about what a company's intent or direction is; unless it is based in something that can be qualified/quantified. Meanwhile, Zebo is our member liaison/affiliate with Abyss.

Order a year ago since they lowered their prices after that sale!!!!
A year ago base price $6200 now 5750 and pay up front and you got
It for $4600? Damn! This crushes the used real doll market for quite a while
And that was marketing genius though it hurts personally
