Bootlegged resin dolls warning.
Buying recast harms the artists that put time into creating a unique item for our enjoyment.
I bought a doll i wanted without thinking about it, or researching first she is a very beautiful doll though.
I would not have bought her intentionally knowing.
Do not buy resin dolls on ebay! Even the second hand market is flooded with bootlegs of popular dolls. I found out the doll i paid about 100 bucks for, actually retails for 800 bucks. This bootleg is hard to distinguish from the doll in terms of quality and styling.
While i am saddened by this i will have be keeping the doll instead of kitbashing and reselling her.

Not sure how much can be done about it at the moment, as there seems to be a sort of Wild West mentality regarding copyright in some parts of Asia.

You can't tell hardly at all that she was a bootlegged doll.
You will know it could be fake if the add says uncle bjd offers free eyes or faceup that will be only 70% matching.
The doll by the original artist Triffoly in russia costs about 750 bucks. Pics in a bit.

More detail about this little lady.....
Again i will not be buying any more bootleg dolls. I never bought bootleg movies or downloaded music without paying, or ever left the salvation army without paying for something.
When i can i will be getting a legit doll from this maker.
