AG: June Release is coming
Jun. 4th, 2019 05:22 amAG news time, people. I'd say this is not a drill but I save that for new GOTY stuff and historical goodies, not in that order. However, we do have some retirements to talk about, so let's begin, shall we?
Apparently AG is swapping out two of the TrulyMe dolls. Unfortunately they're taking away two interesting dolls and giving us not!Josefina and another classic mold of not my thing? If you've had your eye on #26 or #62, I'd get right on that as they're scheduled to be yanked any day now. Some are wondering if it's a thing with the eyes since both are medium dolls with the amber eyes. I must be crazy because I am actually pondering snagging 62, simply because Sonali mold that's pretty different from what I have already. But don't need a new doll. Decisions, love. Decisions. Anyway, we yank these two interesting dolls away and in return we'll get:
( Pictures, AHOY! )
Oh, and after four billion years, AG is doing everyday free shipping... if you spend $125 before taxes and without gift cards. Sigh. I get why it's set at that, honestly. It's so you buy a doll and you have to buy something else because it'd be stupid not to do so. But this is a very clear case of utilize the tiers of your rewards program and actually reward your customers with a lower threshold for free shipping on a daily basis.
While I have you here, let's quickly discuss the historical dolls. If you get bored and peruse their sections, you'll notice just about everyone is looking a little empty these days. And that is why I very much hope the rumor of the historical release not being until we actually hit fall (as in after September) is not true. AG has trained a lot of their customers to have a historical release in late August and that's also when the books with their new look are set to drop. It makes no sense to not have the books and doll stuff release at the same time.
Oh, and the June release is scheduled for the 14th, I believe. Which makes no sense as they've been doing them on what, Mondays for awhile? So heck if I know.
