Started digging through my closet and found a bin full of barbies that I bought years ago ,( theres a barbie in the middle that looks like farah faucet now that I am looking at the picture) ....haven't done any research on them yet , as I am super focused on vintage jewlery right now ...theres alot more...and tons of original clothing for barbie ,skipper etc. alot of the clothing and accesseries alot of the clothing has the original tags on them ....plastic shoes and boots etc....a ton of barbie suff in this bin....any info would be awwwsume xoxoxo
The one in white dress in middle of 3rd photo "American girl" and the most valuable . the one with real eyelashes is called a twist and turn next to her and the other may be Francie she is more flat chested if you can look . The others do include Farrah and the rest have little value . They are newer
xxmag You have so many dolls I would highly suggest you find a person in your area to come to house to look at them ID them and give you an apprasial. Are you near a big town or city ? I may be able to suggest a dealer to you as it is hard to properly give all the info you need without holding dolls . Condition is important and one can get throught them faster since we can't get through hundreds of them on here at least I can't . I will do one if you think it is a special one but my best suggestion is you need to get someone to your house to help you :-) what do you think is that possible
I am just happilly posting pics of whats around my house that I collect, and if I get info on them great and if I dont thats okay to ...I have talked to a few people that appraise or know people that appraise and they all charge alot to do so ...I would rather take that money and buy more stuff lol...but I do greatly appreciate your help ...as for dolls I think I have pretty much posted them all...and if one day I decide to sell them I will go to a distingished auction house that has appraisers, and sell them that way as to get there full value, what ever it may be ....I am onto glasswear and primatives , books etc.
oh ya ..I live about 30 min from Toronto Canada
Oh your in Canada I don't know any dealers up there :-( But Try the phone book . If you want to get appraisal for insurance ect you will need it written and signed by a doll expert . You have so many wonderful things I hope you do insure them . Wow what a great variety of beautiful collectibles you have xxmag !
Oh I also meant to say one in stripped original sweater is Twiggy :-) The model . Aand a few Skippers Barbies little sister mixed in . I wish I could just pick them up one by one :-)
