Castaneda's Unfortunate Return



Well, I've know n about this for a while, but didn't want to write about it until she was safely back in my possession.

On New Years Eve I received a message on ebay that the buyer was not happy with Castaneda and wanted an issue refunded. To be honest, she perfectly good reason. This was the first custom doll I have ever attempted to market and I'm afraid I could have done a better job at describing her.
The fact that the hair under the wig was not sufficient enough to keep the wig in place (although it was in the description that this was a wig) as well as a few places on the body where paint had chipped or where there was no paint were mostly what concerned her. I admit I wasn't really sure how or if I should describe all of these things when I was writing the description for Castaneda on ebay. I wasn't even sure if I should describe her as "new" or not because I had spent so many months working on her. It certainly was not a great start to my New Year but I had to chalk it up to a lesson learned for next time and not let it completely depress me.
Castaneda's Scalp
I won't stop making AA dolls. I just love doing it too much. But next time I will be sure to provide detailed photos of what the doll looks like as well as detailed written descriptions. I'm actually quite glad to have Castaneda back. I didn't want her to be with someone who didn't love her.

More info on what Castaneda's next move will be shortly.
