GreenDragon Posted January 13, 2014 Hi all, I made my first order to Volks USA last week, blank head, hands, and other random things and next week for the DD Gathering 2013 I want to purchase a body. My question is how long will it take for the body to arrive? With my little order last week they shipped right away, will it be the same for the body? or would I have to wait for a long time? I just bought a Saber head and she wants a body right now! thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nekopon Posted January 13, 2014 VolksUSA's usually pretty fast and ships within the week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted January 14, 2014 If you're in Texas then you should see your package within 4 days at the most from the date they ship it. Since they only ship UPS, you can see from the chart below how long it takes when shipping from Southern Cali: Hope that helps!

sleepywolf Posted January 14, 2014 Completly OT but; 5 days LA to NY!? Yikes! That's longer than it takes Volks to ship from Japan to Sweden; a distance that's 2.5 times longer than LA to NY. UPS uses carrier pigeons? [rimg]http://www.dollfiedreams.com/gallery/image.php?album_id=201&image_id=846[/rimg] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jezrah Posted January 14, 2014 Well according to that chart it should take 5 days for things to reach me in PA, but it's almost always been 4 in my experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted January 14, 2014 Yeah that map is only a guideline and not the end all be all of exact shipping times. Whenever I ordered from Volks and they shipped on a Monday, I got my package in SC that Friday. So the map is close but not perfect. I just figured a visual aide would be easier to understand.

GreenDragon Posted January 14, 2014 Thanks everyone! My first order took four days to arrive. Off topic a bit, but it made me so happy to get my VolksUSA card My worry was with my next order which is going to be the body because it is a "limited" item..not exactly sure of the terminology here..is limited the correct word? Anyway I'm still not sure what takes months to arrive opposed to what is shipped right away? Adding that I love this forum, you all are SO helpful! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nekopon Posted January 14, 2014 Everything that they allow you to purchase in their stores are in-stock and would be shipped within the week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jezrah Posted January 14, 2014 Generally the in stock website items are shipped right away. The things that take months to arrive are the lottery-won fullset dolls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
