zalliaWell, I didn't win Kathleen last night. She only went for $136, which is about half her going rate, but still more than I wanted to spend. So I'll just be patient. Hopefully I can get Minuk soon and the books and that will keep me content. Now I can go forward with buying Tessa though if I can ever figure out all the accessories I'm going to purchase from DD as well. I had to start a chart to know what everyone's wig/shoe sizes are and I only have 3!!
Ack, and they're doing Taeyang Quarterly again. I haven't even taken pics in ages, much less elaborately staged ones. Blarg, guess I'll go to target this weekend and get a decent lamp setup so at least I can do more indoor ones. I want to enter someone different, but I don't know who since Sirin's my goto guy. I like Butler, but dont' want to remove his stock and don't have any other vampire pieces. Cav's hair is too delicate and I think that just leaves broken-armed MJ(I don't even have extra boy wigs ;_;) and Another King. Who's still in his stock cause I'm terrified of jacking him up, but he's probably the one I'll go with if I do enter. I have a sad lack of boys even though I really like them. :/
Oh, I'm getting a Coco though! I had seen them around, but wasn't interested, but this one girl put hers up for sale on TIB and the pictures just blew me away! I totally fell in love! So I PMed right away and was in pins and needles for a couple hours and then she wrote back that she was already taken!! >_< I knew it...so I started looking around and there was a few on ebay, but from mimiwoo, wildhly and SDJ so godawful hong kong shipping and not the same one this lady had. So I put out a few WTBs, one hit but someone in Australia who reneged, but then the first lady PMed me and said the buyer had back out so YAY!!! I get the one I love!

She should be shipping Jane by Friday and I can't wait! She's even sending the glasses too. Gah, but now I'll have more dolls to buy, cause I want the one in the poker dress too! But I'm pretty sure they have the same bodies as Momokos and they're like half the price and I don't see them pop up too often so hopefull it won't be too bad. I even searched like 10 pages of Google and couldnt' find any other vendors for them. Poor Cocos. :?

And thanks! I don't know why, but hers just looks better than all the other ones out there, lol. At least all their faces look the same so I can probably stop at one.

Same seller has all the girls except Kathleen and Spring Pearl. I popped in a bid on Leyla, since I still need a complete one. I'm not sure which girls you need yet, but thought I'd share just in case.
(Duh, just noticed the post a couple below. Well, there's Minuk anyway! Heh heh.)

Date: 2008-08-27 02:10 pm (UTC)Thanks for the link! I'm definately interested and wouldn't even have seen that since my search is still just girls of many lands. There's an in box Leyla up on goodwill right now, she's at $16, but 5 days to go so I don't know how high she'll go, but that's where the kathleen went for 136.
And poor Coco, she looks so nice in pictures, but she just looks so...anxious that she makes me stressed out just holding her! I want to get a 2nd one(in the poker dress) and try to paint a smile on her face so I can have at least one happy one.
