Not the best start to the new year....

Hello Dear Readers,

I've removed the poll from the site.
It wasn't finished yet, but I felt it should come down because I'm no longer getting a Mimi doll.

But let it be known that I tried. I found one I liked on eBay, bought it on the 3rd, got notified it shipped on the 4th, then today (the 10th) woke up to an email from the seller that the doll was no longer in stock so they couldn't ship it and that I needed to contact them to get my refund.

I know that right after I bought the doll from them they edited the auction for a much higher price and sold a doll like that too. It said they had 9 dolls in stock, but I guess that's not the case. Not to be too cynical, but I have a sneaking suspicion that the person who paid more than me will be getting their doll.

I am lucky in the fact that this doll is a mass produced doll so it's not like a vintage doll who is going to be a lot harder to find. However the next cheapest option is around 50 dollars and I had a hard time justifying the doll at 35. I know shipping is expensive, but from what I know about these dolls retail prices, that's a lot to upcharge on shipping.

I'd like to say that it's not bothering me too much, but it has bummed me out pretty bad. I'm especially annoyed with the fact that they waited a week after I bought it and nearly a week after they claimed to ship it to tell me.

New Year, New Poll!

Hello Dear Readers,

This is just a quick post to inform everyone I added a poll to the blog. 
It's in the upper left corner and it's about what doll should be the one I review for the blog. 
I can't say for sure any of them will show up by the end of January since some of them were just ordered today, but I'm curious to know which one people are the most interested in seeing.

Hope everyone's been having a good 2018!
