Thank you for your interest in the mosslings! Here is all the info and instructions you must follow if you want to join the upcoming preorder. Please, read them carefully before commiting to join!


PRE-ORDER DATE:

From 3rd of July at 18:00 h // 6PM (Spanish Summer timezone, GMT +2) to 11th of July at 18:00h // 6PM (GMT +2).
 
HOW TO JOIN:
 
When the pre-order begins, send an e-mail to goblintalesbjd@gmail.com, with the title "Pre-order mossling", and a copy-paste of the order form, filled with your data (you will find the order form below in this post). Payments will be made only via PayPal.

 ______________
 
WHAT'S A MOSSLING? WHICH COLORS WILL BE AVAILABLE THIS TIME?

The mossling is a fantasy BJD pet. It has 8cm of height (around 3 inches). His 5 faceplates with different expressions, as well as his poseable ears, make him a very versatile option for photography and photostories. This pet wears 8mm eyes, he also has simple joints in his elbows and hips, and each doll is made in two resin colors (one color for the body, another one for the face ups and bracelets):

 

***

This batch of mosslings will be casted in resin by Haru Casting company. The casting process takes some time, which could last up to 6 months, and the deadline could vary, specially now with the covid-19 situation; please, keep this in mind before joining the pre-order.
 
The color schemes for this pre order will be Matcha and Taro (LIMITED ones, these mossling species will only be for pre-order this time), in the following shades of resin from Haru Casting chart (the colors could slightly vary due to each screen settings): 
 




 
This preorder is mainly for these two limited colors; they won't be available again. However, if you are interested in non-limited mossling colors (Spring and Autumn), you can join the pre-order too. Just let us know in your order form what mossling species would you like to order!

The price of the mosslings is 260€ + shipping costs. This price includes:
 
-1 Mossling (no face up) with 5 faceplates
-Acrylic eyes (1 pair, random color)
-Protective bag and box
-Certificate of Authenticity


SHIPPING COSTS (certified package):

Spain: 18€
Europe: 25€
Rest of the World: 35€


PAYMENT METHOD:

Payments will be made only through PayPal (you will receive a payment order from PayPal each month, and you just will need to confirm the payment).
 
IMPORTANT: At the moment of placing the first installment, the customers agree the usual conditions of a pre-order:

1) In case a customer decided to cancel the purchase, none of the installments will be reimbursed, since these payments will be used to fund the casting process. Only in the case that the pre-order was cancelled (because of justifiable technical problems from the casting company, or not having reached the minimum amount of orders to proceed to the casting process), the payments will be refunded.

2) The non-fulfillment or delay of any of the payments will be considered as a cancellation of the purchase from the customer (in case of unexpected problems that can affect the payment, please contact with us to see what can we do, BEFORE reaching the deadline of the next payment).

3) The dolls are NOT in stock, and their production time depends on the casting company and may vary. Goblin Tales is commited to send the dolls to their owners as soon as they are resin casted and their quality is checked.We hate making you wait, but Haru casting has a schedule and a waiting list, and the casting process needs some time, in order to receive a high quality product.  Thank you for your undesrtanding 馃槉

*Concerning shipping address: Some of you have been asking if we offer face ups. We don't, but if you are planning to commission a face up artist, you can ask us to send your mossling directly to them, instead of your home. If that's the case, in the order form, instead of your address, just tell us "waiting for face up". But let us know your country. We will calculate your price with shipping costs to your own country in order to start placing the payments, and when the dolls are paid and ready to be shipped, we will ask you again the final address. If you live, for example, in the US (the most expensive shipping costs) but your face up artist lives nearer (in Spain or within the EU), we will reimburse you the shipping costs difference, and we will send the doll to the face up artist (the price of the face up and the shipping costs from the artist to your home doesn't depend of Goblin Tales, but the face up artist).
 
We are collaborating with Florence, from "Le Mouton en Sucre", the artist who made the sample face ups in our pictures. This artist lives in France, and she is accepting orders for THE FIRST TEN customers who want to order a face up during this preorder. If you want us to send your mossling to this specific artist, let us know in your order form, and if you are one of the 10 first customers ordering a face up, we will send you a message confirming your right to order a face up, and we will calculate your doll price with shipping costs to France. 
You can see more examples of Florence's work on the mosslings HERE.

____________________________________________________


Always after having paid the last installment, the dolls will be sent to their homes as soon as they are resin casted. This time could last up to six months, and it could vary slightly due to issues that don't depend on Goblin Tales. The owners of the dolls will be informed of any news throughout all the process.

We will personally check all the dolls as they come from the factory, but if you find any problem when you receive your doll (any broken parts, wrong color, etc) that could be responsability of Goblin Tales, you must contact us within the next 2 working days after receiving the package.

Please, don't hesitate sending an e-mail to goblintalesbjd@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Thank you!
