Why used dolls are different
Joy Love Dolls states on its refund policy that opened sex dolls are not returnable for hygiene reasons, which is also why second-hand dolls carry a hygiene question. UK sexual health services advise that sharing toys can pass infections and that toys should be cleaned between users and checked for cracks or scratches (SH:24).
If you still consider one
- Ask for photos of seams, joints and insert
- Ask whether it has been shared
- Replace removable inserts; clean thoroughly (internal cleaning)
- Warranty is unlikely to transfer; ask
Selling your doll
Be honest about condition and use, do not ship through carriers that prohibit adult items, and remove personal data (privacy guide). >> jl=all | Compare new options and warranty terms before choosing a used doll.
