Hello all!
Well, it was my idea but Hiroo had to give the go-ahead.
As you know my Peach had some peeling and a heel tear. I'll post a pic but it's all superficial. It's not something I wanted to deal with in a new doll and frankly this is probably going to be an ongoing issue (it has to do with the spray or something Hiroo used in the chest area). But as you can see from the pics I posted earlier it can be covered up. The rest of the doll is perfect.
So I'm (really Hiroo) is giving the doll away.
This is nice of you, Zarnon. In fact, many in chat over the past few days were trying to console me over the fact that I might not be able to afford a silicone doll. In fact, back in 2006 (?) I attempted to respond to one of your giveaways for a free B4 (no face) RealDoll but lucked out because since her hip was shot, shipping cross-country was out of the question, but I came so close...

Now here's the caveat:
I know, conditions. The reason why I'm posting here instead of PMing you is to find out if I qualify beforehand before attempting to dive in.
Quote:
(1) Cannot own a doll over 500 bucks.
Does this mean the price actually paid for, market value or new selling price? Because I paid only $110 for Daphne, a RSSD, I don't know what she went for brand new, or how much itsme sold her to the original owner, so... I dunno. I also own a mannequin (in storage in a storage shed) that I only paid $150 for.

(2) You will have to buy a new head (this body no head) and that can run a grand.
No problemo. It may take some time, but I might be able to do so. Of course, that means she'd have to be in storage (in the closet) until I'm able to commit.
Quote:
(3) Shipping is on you but if you're in the US it's about 100 bucks.
That, I can do. I can do it whenever you're ready.
Quote:
(4) You cannot resell this doll, only give it away.
It would be highly unlikely that I would do either. Dolls basically have a one-way ticket to my place.
Quote:
(5) Must be willing to make repairs. This is the softest skin and will likely require more repairs over time.
I'm willing. In fact, if I'm given resources (websites, etc.) on where to purchase the repair items, I'll buy them and take some time out on making the repair.

So if you fit these requirements please PM me. Over the next 30 days (or so, not much longer). I'll be looking at who needs as well as who has been waiting for a doll.
As I said before, I am quite unsure if I really do meet the requirements, that is why I said that I was posting here first to find out if I did before sending the PM to you. I'd rather be sure if I did meet them instead of ending up with another disappointment, like the endless string of them that both Kat and I have had pretty recently.

I will also throw in one of my inserts gratis in the spirit of giving (100$ ) value.
That's cool. Thanks.
I hope I do qualify, because it just seems like I had met an opportunity, like some in chat have been hinting at to me, and I don't want this to slip through my fingers like so many opportunities have been recently.
I hope you keep me in mind.

Good luck!
I need it, after being disappointed for the past few days, with a seemingly never-ending string of disappointments...
