The cloth neckline above the zip tie on Lea is starting to show wear. This is the method used to secure heads by doll manufacturers of FAR-less priced dolls. We keep being forced to accept less and less for the same money(or more). I think this doll is absolutely beautiful--but at some point I feel I must take a stand and this is it for me. I know of no better way to express my dissatisfaction for the way this has been handled than to pass it up and share my reasoning with others who know how much I wanted it and who care about the quality and value of the items we purchase.
