My Favourite Disney Character is: Simba
Oh, my poor cousin. He's 28 yrs old, and probably hasn't thought about Disney anything since we went to WDW in 2001. I'm not sure exactly what his job entails, but in the past he's worked for a company has represented sports personalities. But he has been informed by his boss that they have a client that wants one of the Disney Dolls (doesn't know which specific one) for his daughter and it's HIS job to make sure the client gets one. So he called my Mom, and she called me to get the scoop on these dolls. I doubt he is going to have any luck on Monday in store, so I think on Tuesday I'm going to be trying to get online to wrangle one of these dolls for my cousin.
But that's the level this doll craze has gotten.
The Disney Store Facebook page has repeated the full announcement from yesterday about the UK online release of the dolls on Oct 18, 9 AM UK Time:I just found part of the quote that Rose put up on the Disney Store Facebook page. The post from Disney with the actual time seems to have disappeared!?!
So people in the UK and Europe will get to order the dolls 8 hours before we do in the US and Canada! Good luck, Rose!
Disney Store Hello Simone, here is the announcement that we made yesterday - have a great day.

Ugh! Someone just posted a listing for a pre-sale Designer Rapunzel, saying that they have a friend who works at a store who will hold one for this seller. If that cast member really does that, I hope they get into serious trouble for breaking the rules. For anyone going to the retail stores, keep an eye out and make a big stink if you see shady activity from the cast memebers gelping their friends and family who did not queue up with everyone else. Please call them out and complain to the manager. Escalate the issue to the manager's superior for disciplanary action, if necessary. It is this sort of behavior that has, and will, upset a lot of people who actually wait in line.
By the way, this seller claims to live in National City, CA, which is near San Diego.

I've been out of town on business all week and won't be back home for a few more days - the package was suppose to be delivered to my work address ... the delivery confirmation email I got from UPS had a street address for an address that, according to google maps, does not exist. The confirmation said that the package was left at the front door last Tuesday afternoon and the driver did not get a signature. There is a soccer field where the delivery address should be.
I called Disney and they confirmed that someone on their end mixed up my home (street #) and work addresses (street name and city). The messed up address was also a non existant address, so it looks like the UPS driver just picked the next street over and put the big box at someones front door. Disney escalated the problem up the chain 2 levels and are trying to work something out - they did ask for the address that was on the UPS confirmation email.
Funny thing with the emails, I got a 2nd delivery confirmation for a completely different person living in a city that is 20 miles away from me (most like someone else that purchased a pre-sell at the Expo)....so sad...

Oh gosh! Simone Fontana is ME lol xD :shock:
I am famous now!!! lol
Don't believe everything you read!

This is horrible.I hope everything works out for you and your dolls make it home. But on another note, I was quite surprised by the lack of a signature upon delivery. Although I guess that still wouldn't help your current situation.
It gets even worse - I checked with UPS and they said Disney has to initiate an inquiry for the missing package - I drove by the address listed in the UPS delivery confirmation email and it was a open air soccer field with a chain link fence around the entire block - even the Post Office website says the delivery address does not exist. There is a house across the street, but I can't believe that UPS would drop off a big package at a house across the street from NOTHING. I wouldn't be surprised if the driver kept the package himself. :rant:
I finally got home and reviewed the original sales slip from the D23 Expo and it has the correct shipping address. :eek2: I called the Disney Store number on the sales slip and they said D23 has to resolve the problem :cry: because the purchase was made at the Expo (even though it was at the temporary Disney Store and all of the email documentation had been from the DisneyStore.com) :shock:

It seems as if the demand is "changing" on Ebay for these dolls. Prices are dropping like flies! Hopefully that will mean that it may?? make it easier for us all to get the ones we want. Wishing.... sigh.
I know I've seen some members here interested in the Designer Snow White compact. A few minutes ago I did a search on Ebay for "Disney Princess Designer Doll" (time ending soonest) and there's one up for auction that ends in about 4 hours. $20.00 starting bid and no bids so far. I have no idea what the price was in the stores, but it doesn't sound too bad to me. The seller is in California.
Total nightmare. I hope everything works out okay for you. I would make the UPS question the driver that delivered the package.
I called DisneyStore.com when I got the email from a co-worker saying no one at work had seen the package and after I read the UPS delivery confirmation email and discovered the error in the delivery address. They contacted D23 (we cannot contact them directly) and I did get 3 called that day (during a training class I was teaching - "take a 10 minutes break") and the problem had been escalated up two levels. The D23 rep confirmed that the package addressing was their mistake and they were going to try and send a replacement shipment. When I got home (this afternoon) is when I discovered that the original sales slip had the correct shipping address and somewhere along the line, there were two "corrections" done by Disney and/or UPS. I called Disney back this afternoon to let them know about the additional mess-ups and the "delivery" to the "phantom house". The cast member daid she sould send an "Urgent!" e-mail to D23. Hopefully D23 will get back to me on Monday. I hate to think that UPS and or the DisneyStore.com distribution center (where the package was shipped from) might have made mistakes with other shipments.
omg me too lol i think its been keeping me up lately lol
