Many store owners select to slander the peers to improve personal website popularity. This behavior is shameful. I would love consumers to shop in my store, at the same time, I don't use any way to slander any reborn doll shop who sells reborn dolls. Of course, you would buy low quality reborn doll online if don't know how to buy and how to verify. Here I tell you how to buy worthwhile reborn doll and not get scammed. 

Reborns are a form of 3D art created to look like a baby. They are not toy dolls, and therefore can not be find in toy stores, or places like Amazon, AliExpress, etc. Ashton Drake and Paradise Galleries are the only two exceptions where you can get realistic looking dolls from a "store."

In the past times, reborn dolls are the creatures to reassure someone who lost their babies, kids or someone who adopt their babies. Or some old man or woman lacked of spiritual sustenance. However, nowadays, those reborn dolls appear in many places or occasions with different reasons. Some local store owners buy reborn dolls as the models put in their store. Some gift shop buy reborn dolls as the gifts in their store. Some parents buy reborn dolls as birthday gifts or festival gifts for their kids. The usages are more wide than before. And the significance is more positive than past times. Not only those lifelike reborn dolls always appear in offline store, for the most time, reborn dolls are always on amazon, walmart, aliexpress, alibaba or etc. You will see varieties of reborn dolls with different prices. However, you may see the price is cheapest in some of platforms, or many stores have the same reborn dolls. Why some is so cheaper? Cause they use low quality material to produce, that is the material contains so many low quality PVCS which are toxic to us.

Some peers produce some stories to attack other reborn doll merchants on different platforms. Consumers need to have smart insights. Any platform may exist frauds, but not all. Before you buy reborn dolls online, you can see the details images or ask seller to send you practical image. I always send the practical images to my new customers. If they feel satisfied with my reborn dolls, they can choose to buy.

In fact, no matter reborn dolls are made in vinyl material, silicone or platinum silicone material, they are not cheaper. Any premium material needs cost. Meanwhile, artists should be patient to draw on reborn dolls. No matter the cost of material and labors, they are not cheaper. If the listing named in premium silicone reborn doll, but price is lower than $100, that is fake, except mini silicone reborn doll.

The cost of each material of making reborn dolls:

Vinyl:

From a market price perspective, on average, the price of silicone is higher than that of vinyl. Generally speaking, 1KG of silicone is much more expensive than the same volume of vinyl.

Silicone:

Ordinary silicone is made of ordinary translucent silicone raw materials and traditional ordinary vulcanization. The material properties are relatively ordinary. The product is non-toxic, odorless and has excellent performance in all aspects. However, its fatal weakness is yellowing and darkening may occur if the product is not maintained when time is long. 

Platinum silicone:

Platinum silicone is made of highly transparent gas-phase silica gel mixed with a two-component platinum vulcanizing agent and vulcanized. It is superior to ordinary silicone in terms of material performance and smell. It will not yellow or deform after long-term use.

Platinum silicone is a high-grade silicone rubber produced through platinum catalyst catalytic hydrogenation polymerization. Silicone is made from silica as the main raw material through thermal polymerization or chemical polymerization. Platinum silicone has properties such as high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and radiation protection, and is not prone to decomposition of ordinary silicone at high temperatures. The manufacturing process of platinum silicone is complex, the catalyst cost is high, and the price is relatively expensive.

Thus, this is the reason why platinum silicone reborn doll is the most expensive doll, then the silicone reborn doll, and why vinyl reborn doll is the most cheapest one.
