Layaway Info & Guide

BJDivas: Longest Layaways Anywhere!

We aim to offer the longest layaways available anywhere! Simply tell us how long you need, or alternatively, tell us a ballpark figure for how much you’d like to pay each month, and we’ll tailor something for you!

Are you new to layaways and don’t know how long to request? Not to worry! There aren’t any wrong answers, but if you’d like to pick a length from our most commonly requested ones, they are: 3 months, 6 months, 8 months, 10 months and 12 months.

We fully understand that things come up, so if your payment will be late, simply let us know. We aren’t interested in penalizing anyone, and have yet to decline a request for a late payment, though we do request that your payment be made before the next payment would be due.

As it is our goal to help our fellow BJD hobbyists get their dream dolls, we strive to meet each individual’s specific needs in facilitating payment via layaway. If you’d like invoices more frequently than the standard monthly invoice (i.e. fortnightly), please don’t hesitate to contact us! We’re happy to set things up for you. 🙂

In closing, we’d like to say that while we strive to help our customers as much as possible, we are not personal money managers, and ask that everyone consider carefully before committing to a long term layaway. We’re happy to be here for you until the end, but be sure to properly assess if your passion for the doll will last over the course of a long layaway. To prevent us from becoming personal piggybanks, layaway payments are not refundable, so please think responsibly before buying!


Our full layaway terms and conditions are as follows:

  • Layaway payments are normally calculated by subtracting the down payment from the total, then dividing by the number of months of the layaway required.
  • All layaway payments are non-refundable.
  • Pre-orders and layaways are considered final sales. Pre-ordered items are made to order and cannot be canceled or refunded.
  • Minimum order amount to qualify for layaway is $100.
  • Payments are normally due every month (approximately 30 days apart). We will send an invoice for each payment. We will send a reminder for a one week (7 days) overdue payment. Payments that are overdue by 2 weeks (14 days) will be considered null and void, and the order will be canceled. An abandoned order will forfeit all money that is already paid. In the case of extenuating and unforeseen circumstances, please contact us and we will try to work something out on a case-by-case basis.
  • If your pre-order arrives before you finish your layaway payments, you can elect to finish paying the remaining amount, after which your item(s) will be shipped to you on the following business days. Otherwise, the arrived item(s) will ship after completion of the final payment.
  • Payments can be made digitally through PayPal, wire transfer, or Western Union. They can also be made physically through check or money order, however as physical payments require transit time to reach us through the mail system, please factor in this delay, especially if you are expecting item(s) to ship following the processing of your final payment.

To order a BJD with layaway, please follow these steps:

  1. Select your doll with all of your desired options and add it to cart.
  2. Go to your cart. Check out from the cart. Do not use the “Buy Now” button.
  3. Click the “Proceed to Checkout” button, NOT the “PayPal Checkout” button even if you plan to use PayPal to pay your layaway.
  4. Fill out your billing and shipping details, then choose shipping method and “Pay with PayPal”. It doesn’t matter which shipping method you choose, as you won’t be billed for shipping until your order is ready to ship. Shipping is not included in your layaway invoices.
    Even if you plan to be paying for your layaway without using PayPal, please choose the Pay with PayPal method. This is the only way to generate an order number.
  5. Select “Cancel and return to BJDivas” 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.
  6. If you are not using PayPal, please contact us directly for assistance with your layaway order.
