Tenshi no Sumika (Utsunomiya)
Volks showroom in Tochigi prefecture's capital Utsunomiya is located in a building called Festa on one end of Oriondori arcade almost opposite of a big department store Parco(in front of the shrine).
The Festa building itself has six floors mostly with goods any Japanese animation fan would appreciate; there are action figures, cosplay costumes, CDs, games and manga books. There is also a small shop dedicated to lolita brand Baby the Stars Shine Bright (and much nicer Angelic Pretty shop could be found in the opposite building). Volks shop and showroom is on the 6th floor and because, apart from dolls, Volks also produces action figures and all sorts of models, about two third of this shop is dedicated to them. Dolls section is the one furthest in the back and it consists of both Super Dollfie and Dollfie Dream dolls. There could be probably about 20 different full dolls on display and a lot of Volks molds heads and also a couple of busts and hands.
Dolls in the central stand were sporting the newest Volks fashion and the stands are were slightly season themed.
What you can buy there: A couple of Volks clothes (SD17 set is around 7000-10000 yen), shoes, wigs, eyes and even a some re-stringing tools and face-up tools.
I just briefly browsed DD section as it had nothing interesting for me.
As I am not particulary interested in buying Volks products, I have visited the place only a couple of times. Only once I saw another customer, a lady around 40, who brought her dolls with her and took some photos of them in a display Volks has for this very reason.

Vier4D: Ochre jumper
(Moje zkušenosti a hodnocení objednávky z Vier4D. Pokud je potřebujete přeložit do češtiny, dejte mi vědět.)
I don't remember excuse why I did also order a jumper, but I'm pretty sure it had something to do with exams and me being inspired to complete Justin's outfit. I couldn't find a brown SD17 sweater fitting the image I had in my head, but luckily some guys at DoA pointed me to Sadol and Vier4D. I decided to got for the second and tried to place my order at 4D website, but for some reason my browser didn't get me through, at one computer I couldn't ever register and at the second one I had problems with placing an order, so I had to mail them. They replied very quick and were very helpful.
I order DBS-Iberis in ochre colour and also silicone pads for joints, because there are some scratches inside Justin's joints and I hope it would help to prevent them from getting worse.

SWW: White shirt
(Moje zkušenosti a hodnocení objednávky z Sunny's Wonderful World. Pokud je potřebujete přeložit do češtiny, dejte mi vědět.)
I decided to buy Justin a white shirt, a)because I finally got inspired to complete his look, b)because I had my post-war literature exam and I needed something to look forward to.
I went for a 70cm size white shirt from http://www.swdoll.com/ (they have two similar white shirts, this one is with transparent buttons), because they offer registered air-mail shipping for free and I also hoped this comapny would be a bit more reliable and would provide higher quality than standard e-bay sellers from China.

Houbyhoubičky
Nelekejte se, nebudou následovat Vařečky a Hrnce.
Postavena před otázku: "Jak to čistit?" Na anglických fórech všichni doporučují malaminovou houbičku (Mr. Clean například): houbička se navlhčí a nečistoty v podstatě "gumuje." Malý kousek houbičky byl i součástí doll care kitu od SWITCH, ale poté, co se ukázalo, že jedna paruka (ze stejného obchodu, mimochodem) docela barví, zbyl po dlouhodobém šmudlání Justinovy hlavy z kousku jen kousíček.
Procházela jsem české e-shopy, ale přeci jen nejsem velkoodběratel a platit poštovné se mi zrovna moc nechtělo. Možná bych měla štěstí v nějakém z baumarketů, ale nemám k nim zrovna dobrý přístup, takže jsem nakonec mrkla na ebay. Našla jsem prodejce z Hongkongu, který má houbičku za dolar (tj. za dvacku) a poštovné zadarmo (obyčejný dopis, nikoliv doporučeně, dorazil v pořádku po týdnu). A nejlepší je, že houbičky mají japonské obaly: Meramin kuríná: mizu dake de kirei ni očiru

SWITCH: Macaron Cut

The ordering period was on Friday 3rd of Feb 2012 from 2pm (Korean time), in my time zone it's 6am, so I got up at 5:55, logged to their website, ordered one Macaron Cut (8-9) in Caramel Brown and proceeded to PP. I returned to the website after five minutes just to see the wigs are all SOLD OUT, in five minutes, really, woah.

Review: Angell Studio boots
(Moje zkušenosti a hodnocení objednávky z Angell Studio. Pokud je potřebujete přeložit do češtiny, dejte mi vědět.)
I ordered these two pairs (70+ aristocrat boot and 70+ Black Gothic Troop Boots) at 19th Dec. 2011 from the Angell Studio website, at first I was plesantly surprised how quickly they answered my mail and replied to my questions. When I placed an order I was a bit uncomfortable with the fact that despite being quite a big company they charge PP fees.
