Buying or Selling a Used Doll

Buying used

Ask for detailed photos, check joints, insert and skin, and clean per cleaning. See safe products.

Selling used

Disclose condition, clean thoroughly and ship discreetly (packaging).

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).
