Very informative video, I appreciate you taking the time to share. I’ve seen some very beautiful custom dolls on Instagram and in my opinion really reasonable because as you stated an artist is giving you a one of kind and a lot of work goes into making these beautiful customs. Your dolls are adorable and I love their fashions.

[@TammyPowley]

Yes, it's a massive amount of work, especially if you consider how long it takes for the average artist to get good at carving and faceups. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for commenting.

I love the doll from the beginning with the red dress.

[@TammyPowley]

She's got rooted hair, too, really well made custom.

The high prices as a "reserve" are sometimes just that -- a reserve; however, it's more often than not, a way for them to keep the listing up without paying for another listing. So if they make another doll, they will reuse that listing. If they don't have a doll available, it also serves as free advertisement. :)

[@TammyPowley]

Thanks, I have heard that before,, but it's still kind of confusing and off-putting. Sometimes I've seen Etsy shops where all the listings are like that, so it looks like they are trying to sell the dolls for outrageous prices. They still have to pay for the listing, even if it's just 20 cents. Thanks for the info. I was hoping someone would explain this.

I appreciate you covering this subject, though I do not plan to buy a customized doll. It is good to be aware and hear the experiences as they can apply in other situations. I hope to find another 'damaged' stock Blythe for a lower price, like I did in the case of my Mademoiselle Rosebud. She is lovely and I so happy to have her. Also, it's just good to hear a discussion on a doll type that you really enjoy.

[@TammyPowley]

Agreed, it's good to keep an eye out for dolls that need some love, and you neve know.

Really cute clothes. Thanks for sharing

You answered my question about $999.00 lol and I love all the information. I am not super new to the collection and so far I was buying takara Blythes and I love these customized Blythes now. I think Sari is so cute and she’s my fave from your customized collection even if her head doesn’t close. Have you ever thought of closing her up permanently? I think she’s perfect and I wouldn’t change her so that might be an option. Knock on wood I don’t feel like I have been scammed and I have met some of the nicest collectors (you included) ever! Thank you Tammy for all the info, it is appreciated! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️☀️💙

[@TammyPowley]

Actually, after filming this, I remembered that I have an aplaca scalp that might fit her head. I may give that a shot.

[@kristalynn7877]

Your dolls are adorable ☺️ I also like the names you picked for them.

[@TammyPowley]

Thank you, I don't name all of my dolls, but a few special ones have special names.

Thank you, I hope everyone finds it useful.

Is Etsy a good place to buy the customized dolls?

[@TammyPowley]

Yes, but of course, each seller is different on Etsy. There are lots of custom dolls there though.

[@JoshuaPortillo-zz8kb]

Is Etsy is were you can a Blythe Doll?

[@TammyPowley]

A customized Blythe, yes, lots of artists on there selling them

[@JoshuaPortillo-zz8kb]

@@TammyPowley how much?

[@TheNanaSprinkles]

I was lucky finding my first doll on eBay for under 200 2 weeks ago. It is my first one. Etsy is to expensive for me right now. I only can find good looking dolls for around 350 Dollar up.. this is quite alot for me. But I rather have only 2 to 3 custom dolls which I love than 30 cheap ones out of factory I just don't like the look of them.

[@TammyPowley]

Excellent, lucky you found such a great deal

[@SunshineDawn7]

Thank you 🥰

[@TammyPowley]

No problem

[@Rossyscollection]

I really like the ones that are customized but I don’t want it to be fake

[@TammyPowley]

There are customizers who use stock Blythes too.

[@ToyFan-kr2ed]

I love these outfits. I’m gonna go check out Etsy to find a Valentine’s dress for my Blythe. I’m still nervous about custom Blythe dolls. How do you know if they’re fake or not? Do people customize aliexpress dolls or real Blythe dolls?

[@TammyPowley]

I enjoy dressing up my dolls for the holidays :) People customize both, and most artists are good about telling you if they were previously stock dolls or fakes before they customized them. Price is often an indicator as well. Often, very experienced/well-known artists will use stock, and their prices reflect that they have started out with a much more expensive doll versus a fake. Like I said in the video, do your homework and you should be fine.
