Order Cancelled? No need to worry!

If your unfinished order shows up as “cancelled”, please don’t worry! Our system automatically cancels orders that don’t receive payment within a certain amount of time, but this doesn’t mean that your order isn’t valid.

[FIFTH MOTIF] Coming Next Week: New Hands for Timeless Body

We were just informed by Fifth Motif that the much-anticipated release of new hands for the Timeless Body is slated for the week after the upcoming final re-release of Venitu and Goohwa.

Customers will be able to order these new hands separately, IN ADDITION TO being able to place orders for any of the old hands as well.

All hands-only orders will be shipped from Fifth Motif to BJDivas for redistribution.

Upcoming Fifth Motif Ordering Period: FAQ

Q: How do I put my order on layaway?

  1. Select your doll with all of your desired options and add it to cart.
  2. Go to Check Out.
  3. If you are using PayPal, select “Cancel and Return to Merchant” when you’ve been redirected to the payment page on PayPal. This will return you back on our page. Find your Order Number under “My Account” –> “Orders”. Send us a message with your Order Number and the layaway length you need.

 

Q: What are the conditions for requesting extended layaway beyond the standard 3 months for this event?

There will be a $50 surcharge for extending layaway length beyond 3 months, up to 6 months, or 5% of your order total if that amount exceeds $50. For layaway extension requests beyond 6 months, we will have to evaluate them on a case-by-case basis. Fifth Motif does not have the capacity to store dolls for extended periods of time, so BJDivas would have to take care of storage, which means that we’d need the dolls shipped to us, and then ship them out when payment is complete. What this also means is that the shipping cost will increase for the customer.

 

Q: Is it possible to buy a head by itself?

A: Yes! Please check the listing for the head for additional info: Fifth Motif Venitu or Goohwa Head

 

Q: Is it possible to buy the body by itself, or the hands?

A: Not at this point. There would need to be at least 20 orders for each part before they can be sold separately. If there is enough interest in body-only orders, we will work with Fifth Motif to set that up as a separate listing. For customers who wish to purchase just a set of hands, we recommend finding a split partner among those ordering a full set. Full set orders can choose to add extra pairs of hands and feet, so unless someone wants two pairs of the same hands and feet, it’s the best way to get those parts at this point. UPDATE: The listing for buying hands only will be posted one week after the Venitu/Goohwa re-release. Fifth Motif plans to release NEW hands at this time, which will allow customers to buy the new hands and/or the old hands separately. However, as is the case with the head-only purchases, hands will have to be shipped to BJDivas for redistribution.

 

Q: Is the 75 limited sets Venitu and Goohwa, or 75 each? Is that number USA or worldwide?

A: The 75 limit applies to the TOTAL number of sets, so 75 Venitu+Goohwa in any combination. The worldwide limit is actually 150, Mr. Cho has divided it in half and allocated the other half to the Chinese customer base. If our side sells out super fast, we will check with Mr. Cho to allocate more from the Chinese side, assuming that they haven’t sold out as well by then.

 

Q: Is the head quantity-limited like the full sets are?

A: At this point, the heads are time-limited. They will be available for sale for so long as the full sets are still available. If this changes, we will post an update. Mr. Cho did not anticipate much interest in head-only orders.

[FIFTH MOTIF] x [BJDIVAS] Final Limited Release of Venitu and Goohwa

 
This final release is very specific, and as such, we really need all potential customers to please carefully read ALL the information in the product listings.
 
Dollshe Craft is the casting company. All of Dollshe’s (PURE) resins are available. (HONEY) resins are not available. Color Options:
We at BJDivas are representing Fifth Motif to collect orders on a non-profit basis. Formerly, Fifth Motif was going to only accept orders through Facebook, with payments only through Bank Transfer and Western Union. Due to BJDivas’ love and appreciation for Fifth Motif’s work as well as for our fellow BJD hobbyists, we contacted Fifth Motif prior to the re-release date in an effort to provide PayPal and layaway options to customers.
As such, because we are working for free, to prevent taking a loss ourselves while we provide this service, we’re deviating from our usual policies. Please check the listings for details regarding payment, shipping, and layaway.
The ordering period officially begins on Thursday, November 23, 2017, at 1:00 PM CST.
Venitu and Goohwa full sets are not time limited but are quantity limited to 75 total sets.
Ordering Links:
Customers everywhere can also order directly from Fifth Motif through Facebook or E-mail (mixcho79@gmail.com). If ordering this way, please note that Fifth Motif only accepts payments in Bank Transfer or Western Union.

Fifth Motif would like to strongly issue the statement that the master sculptor does not want to sell any more Venitu and Goohwa dolls after this ordering period. It is Mr. Cho’s wish that this is the absolute final ordering period. Mr. Cho wants to focus on making new dolls as well as complete other new works.
 
Fifth Motif would also like to communicate that despite the rising costs of production, they are endeavoring to keep the price of their dolls the same as before. In the future, casting costs will increase further, but Fifth Motif will try to keep the prices the same with their new releases.
 
Fifth Motif hopes that after this ordering period, that customers will understand about not asking for further Venitu and Goohwa ordering periods. Fifth Motif is a very small single artist business who does everything from sculpting to refining, and the large volume of requests have been very detrimental to his progress on other projects. Mr. Cho would like nothing more than to move on beyond Venitu and Goohwa to bring all of us even more beautiful dolls.
