Today I want to give a big shout out to http://www.sexdollaustralia.com.au
Six years ago I found out all these lovely ladies and TDF existed. Right away I knew I had to have one but most of them required me giving large amounts of money to websites mainly in China and hope I would get what I paid for. You all know what I mean.
My first girl, the lovely lady in my avatar, was made by a company in Japan who wouldn't take my money directly and send her DownUnder unless I went through their agent in Sydney and they did all the customs and GST. For a first time buyer it made everything more reassuring.
For the next couple of years I took the chance buying directly from China and for 3 out of 4 purchases I was lucky, but for one, which was my third girl, I was not. DHL questioned the ridiculously low stated value and I had to show proof of purchase and had to fill out a whole lot of confusing paperwork for customs which ended up costing me an extra $800+ in GST and import duty.
A few years later and now in Aus we have a few more vendors that carry many different brands and will deal with all that customs crap for us and for me I chose http://www.sexdollaustralia.com.au
Their website is easy to use and the price you see is what you pay right up to delivery. No having to talk to customs officers as that is all done for you and that fact is clearly stated on their website.
My first email to them and Andrew was quick to give a reply with the answers I wanted. I had ordered the jiggly breast option before all the pictures of exploding boobies started to appear. Again Andrew was helpful with my questions and gave me the option of changing my order. I stayed with the jiggly option as I was getting D cup which was supposed to be OK. I'm glad I did, they are AMAZING!
After a couple of weeks I got my factory shots. Not being new to this I knew that these shots can be a little unflattering especially with a wig that is probably used for other dolls' factory shots, and they got the wrong colour eyes.
Not a problem, Andrew had them change them and awaited my approval to ship.
She was to fly DownUnder and then Andrew would email me with a tracking number to my capital city. It didn't go that way. It was only about a week and I had a UPS attempted delivery card in my letter box and an email from Andrew saying I should see her soon. My guess is she came directly to my state rather than though Sydney as expected. To be honest I prefered it that way as I wasn't constantly tracking her.
The carton showed no signs of damage or even scratches. WM boxes now have UP arrows printed on the sides. That's new.
With the carton open it was full with little room for movement.
And of coarse the main check was to literally rip apart the plastic to see if her boobies had survived. They did and are spectacular.
I had to get my mate to meet me at UPS with his ute as the carton was too big for my car. He knows all my girls but is usually hesitant to touch them. I was like "Dude, you have to give those boobies a squeeze". He was impressed.
Something else new in the carton is the moulded foam inserts shaped around her body and between her legs to restrict movement with a furry material covering it.
Her head was cradled in a hole between her feet.
Also squares of wood at each end to stop her punching through.
All the usual accessories packed in a neat little tray. Wig, insert, quick release M16 neck bolt (new), nightie, douche and comb. WM now includes a booklet in english with pictures of good positions and what is not recommended. I had also ordered a tongue which was not there but Andrew sent a few days later.
There was only one insert in the box. All 5 of my girls, whether from 4Woods, Doll Sweet or WM all had 2 inserts packed with them. I mentioned that to Andrew when I told him the tongue was missing and he said he would send me one when he gets some. Hope he does. The old inserts I have do fit my new girl but the shape of the end of the new one has the closed end rounded which makes it very easy to .... um .... insert it.
There was a bag containing six plastic head foot bolts. They are like studs on footy boots. I do not like them. Someone on TDF showed some round head bolts they used instead. My hardware store only had them in galvanized which made my hands dirty just holding them while I kept searching the shelves and found mushroom head bolts in stainless steel. The wider head gives her foot more protection when trying to get her from laying to standing. She is heavy.
The standard foot bolt is on the right and the mushroom head is in the middle. The thread is much smoother on the new bolts compared to both supplied bolts.
The larger flatter head gives a lot more protection to the very soft TPE. I would only use these on carpet. They would destroy a nice polished wood floor.
OK, her boobies are incredibly soft and squishy, all of her is. I have 2 other WM dolls but this one is much softer. A member asked me which softness TPE I ordered. I didn't order either way except for jiggly breasts and this is what I got. She is beautiful to touch but I am thinking a lot of extra care when handling her.
Most of her joints are tight but easy to move. The bend in her back is very hard to move and the shrugging shoulders won't move at all. I don't want to force it especially with her being so soft, I'll take my time.

My sweetie resting up after her journey. I have her arms set tight to her sides so her boobies rest on her biceps until I get her a suitable bra.
OK, to sum up, SDA was a great travel agent for my lady to make her way DownUnder. No customs to deal with and the price was very good. The total amount was actually less than my WM in 2016 and that didn't include the extra taxes.
Thanks Andrew and SDA. I can definitely recommend them to any aussies out there looking for a new lady. They don't just have WM, there are many other brands to choose from.
