New Outlet in The Netherlands

Hi All,

We have a new outlet in The Netherlands.
The site can be found at: https://nl.the-doll-house.com and is run by Mark.
TDF Username The-Doll-House NL

He has just opened, so presently is only offering JinSan dolls until he has the time to add the other lines of dolls that are found at The-Doll-House.
Also, the Dutch translation of the site will arrive in time too, so there will be the option to see the site in Dutch.

So if you are a prospective doll owner in The Netherlands, and prefer to buy from someone nearby, then Mark is your man!
He has the full support of the parent company to assist him with anything that he needs to maintain the customer satisfaction, that is experienced at The-Doll-House.
All orders come through The-Doll-House (UK) so all TDF verification of suppliers is maintained, but this does mean that customers in The Netherlands, can communicate with The-Doll-House in their own language, rather than having to default to English to query anything.

I hope you all enjoy the site, and if you have any suggestions for the site, please email mark at nl@the-doll-house.com or there is of course, the contact us form on the site.

This is awesome news for the European market.
I wish more U.S. based retailers would contribute to TDF.
I feel a lot of forum members would prefer to see their desired doll in person before committing to make a purchase.

Hi everyone, good to be here. I am proud to be the second franchise of The-Doll-House, after DC. Phil has been great in helping me get up and running, and continues to be available as mentor. I hope to live up to the quality service and excellence that The-Doll-House is known for.

While we are located in The Netherlands, we are open to the E.U. and also worldwide, hence the English language website. The Dutch language version will be available in the near future. The language selector is already present in the top right, so you will know where to find it if you prefer.

As a little opening celebration gift to our customers, you are now able to select the popular "Stand-Up Foot" doll option for Free with all dolls until the end of November. Hope you enjoy. :thumbs_up:

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments or suggestions that you may have. Here on the forum including PM if you wish, on our website or of course by email.

Cheers!

Hi Mark, are you also planning to have a showroom in The Netherlands, or maybe some stock? Just curious :D

Anyway, welcome to TDF :glou:

Hi Nescio, thank you. :glou:

I will be renting a storage unit for starters and see how things develop from there.

Anyone is certainly welcome to visit. But since it is a storage unit and not an office, I will only be there at unpredictable times. So if anyone wishes to drop by, be sure to contact me first! :lol:

That said, there is not much to see for the moment. Once things get rolling, I do hope to have something there if anyone is curious to see a doll "in the flesh" before buying one. A pre-owned doll is likely coming in soon already.

I was not. Thanks for letting me know. I live in the western half of the country, but it's still good to know the Doll House has an east coast presence.

Thanks DDM & Robert,

It's always good to hear that people are welcoming The-Doll-House into their personal space.
Appreciated.

We would like to become an internationally recognised brand, but distinctly different in each country - if that makes sense?
So we welcome any suggestions that you may have - we are still trying to wrestle a response out of 4Woods to be able to supply their dolls.

RealDoll have not responded to us either, but such is life.
If there are any manufacturers that you have experience of, that you would recommend, then please let us know, (we get bombarded with requests from Asian companies to supply, but have no experience of them) so if you know something that we do not, please let us know as we will be in a position to supply them for you, and everyone else.

We do have another outlet opening very soon,,,

Hi everyone, great news. We are expanding our introductory offer. Until the end of November, you can now get a second doll head for free with each doll purchase.

The website should be updated within 24 hours to reflect this, but it is effective immediately and retroactively.

When submitting an order, there is the opportunity to add additional comments/instructions for us. Please use this to tell us which extra head you would like.

This is in addition to the free Stand-Up Foot offer, which you can select with the rest of the doll options as normal.

Enjoy!

Congratulations on your new store.

Unfortunately, when I started my initial search/orientation on dolls, you didn't exist yet, so I only found mytenga and ultimately went to them for my doll. They have been great so far but now I feel maybe I could have gotten a better deal with you. Well, maybe next time :wink:

Just make sure your store comes up in Netherlands based google searches...
