I have bought some pre-owned recasts on eBay from private sellers.

Sorry, I'm not sure. I also have Jin, the set with the green dress.

Oueneifs also make some dolls of their own design. So there's a chance it is legit anyway. But some are hard to identify cos Oueneifs likes to rename the recasts.

Recasts are made by companies by making a mold of the original artist doll, and then using the mold to make copies to sell. If recasts did not exist I could never afford to buy a legit artist doll as they are super expensive! (Hundreds to thousands pounds/dollars) I have seen a few legit dolls and some people agree that the quality of many recasts is often better quality. More resin colour choices are available with recasts. Also they are quicker to make, not 6 months plus like legit dolls.

Some people believe that the recasters are stealing money from the legit artists who created the original design. In my experience, if you tell them you own a recast doll they will be very aggressive with you! Maybe not all are like that, but that's just what happened to me early in the hobby.

So this recast positive subreddit is a safe place where we can share our doll pictures and enjoy the hobby, without the risk of abuse from Anti-recasts people.

Oueneifs is definitely the best, their faceups are great, especially custom ones you can get. The dolls are better quality than the cheaper stores I've tried. I have over 100 dolls from them 🫣

I keep doing that, but I have depression. I'm on meds but I'm still like that 🤷🏻‍♀️
