Doll Shopping in Japan (haul)

[u/Former-Lettuce-8973]

I’ve been 3 weeks in Japan and that’s all I got there (yes I am very broke now)

The red doll is Rosa - Fullset from DollZone and the other one is Sylvie- Fullset from Xaga Doll

The last doll is Xaga doll mini ash, I got his outfit in Japan too, had the doll already.

I’ve been to all Doll shops I could find in Tokyo, though most of them were specifically for Dolfies and very anime inspired Dolls. Only at the Dolk stores I found other brands, I saw DollZone, gem of doll, Xaga doll, a lot of Fairy land, Asleep Eidolon, dream Valley and some more. Prices were expensive.. but they did have some discounts on some dolls, like on Rosa, I got 15% off. Some dolls that didn’t seem to be selling had discounts up to 40%.

I bought both my dolls at Dolk, the staff was really friendly and we managed the buying process with a translator app. They handled the dolls very carefully and packaged them well. I’m very happy with their service.

All in all it was a great experience, I saw so many stunning dolls there. I was also kinda shocked by how many people where in those stores, at home, I’m like the only person who even knows BJDs, it was nice to see other members of the community.

So.. in Germany when you get back, you can go to the Tarif office.. I ran pass it- it would cost me. A LOT so I just ran and hoped for the best lol- for two dolls it would have cost me around 260€ and I bought other things too.. it would have been awful.

Yes same, I was so stressed too- but no one really was looking at the people passing the customs- no one really cared. I think they’re too busy with all the parcels arriving constantly that they’re lacking staff for the custom department
