Came across these in my attic. Does anyone know the value? Thank you!
Your dolls are from the Seymour Mann Connoisseur Collection and were made in 1996.
There are several different versions of the 2PC doll sets that seem to have been produced from 1995 to 1996.
I believe these sets are referred to as 'twins'.
These are from the same collection, but unfortunately do not have any information.

This is a similar set made in 1997. Asking price: $20. Problem; this set has been listed for sale for over 3 years and has not sold.

This is set from 1997. Asking price: $24.95 plus shipping.

I did not find any similar doll sets that had sold recently, but I believe you can see from the examples provided, these dolls are valued at less than $35-$40 due to the length of posting with no sales.
Value would seem to be less than $25.
I have looked on eBay and other sites and I am having trouble finding this doll (Joella). Any ideas or help on info, value, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
Over the years, Seymour Mann has produced so many dolls that it would be impossible to find every one of these at any given time. If you are an eBay member you can put Joella on a "watch" list and eBay will notify you if someone happens to list this doll. Just go to "advanced" and check out eBay services.
I have a Seymour Mann Connoisseur collection doll MCMXCVI (Marguerite) in the original box with all the tags, in excellent condition and would like to know what it is worth?
The Seymour Mann doll collections are mass produced and don't bring a high resale value. It is unfortunate that this happens, The dolls that hold their value and increase in value are the ones made by famous doll collectors.
I have a Mann musical porcelain doll and want to know what it's worth. The reg number is PA1141. OH-12567
This type of dolls are mass produced and don't have a high resale value. Most people try to sell dolls, thinking they are worth a great deal of money.
How much is a Seymour Mann doll #FH 294 worth? The cost of this doll was $50 in 1990.
I can't find your exact doll but they range from 10.00 to 50.00. You should go on E-Bay look over the dolls you may find yours. You can get E-Mail alerts from E-Bay if your doll becomes listed they will let you know.

I have 11 Seymour Mann baby dolls in their boxes. They belonged to my mother who passed away and left them to me. I am not a doll collector. Is there anywhere I can find the value? I have all the code numbers. We are moving soon and do not have space for 11 dolls.
Thank you.
I have 2 porcelain Connoisseur Collection dolls by Seymour Mann. They are black Raggedy Ann and Andy. Everything is original and still in the box. I also have the certificate of authenticity. I have had these 2 dolls around 10 to 15 years. I had purchased them back in the late 80s. I am hoping to find out their value. The style numbers are:
These are mass-produced dolls and are worth at most $25
I have had to stop looking for several years. I am looking to get rid of it, but cannot find the details or information on this doll. It is a Connoisseur collection doll from Seymour Mann. MCMXCVI, style number C 26285. It is a geisha doll.
Ebay has Seymore man dolls listed ranging from 10$ -100.00
Can anyone tell me about the Rapunzel's wedding doll by Seymour Mann? I can not find it nowhere.
I did not find this same doll, but there are some similar dolls that may help if you are looking for value to perhaps sell.
Keep in mind that most of these dolls were mass-produced, so this fact usually places them in a low price bracket and since the doll market has been flooded for several years, sales are very slow.
You can see some similar dolls - all beautiful dolls but not many have sold for over $20-$30 and we have no way to know how long each doll has been listed for sale. One particular doll sold for $15.95 but had been listed for sale for over 2 years and this is not unusual.
This doll is very similar to your doll. listed for sale for $15.95.

This doll sold for $15.00:

This doll sold for $15.

Sorry that I could not be of very much help.
Doll forums do not usually answer very many questions about mass-produced dolls but you can still ask for help.

I have a Ginny porcelain doll by Seymour Mann with googly glass eyes. I was wondering how much I should sell it for.
Unsurprisingly, I find that one cannot expect to make much more than $20 for this - if it even sells.
The secondary market for these 'collectable' dolls is quite dismal and they are difficult to unload
I was told this doll was worth $300. My daughter got it as a gift from a distant relative. My daughter is 10 and swears it is haunted. Lol. She said that she heard it say, "wrong box" several times. I told her it's the TV or something cause she sleeps with it on.
I'm a 38 yr old man and I tried looking this up and I cannot find it. I put in the numbers it shows a different doll. There are only 7 thousand and fifty it says on the card so why can't I find it?Can someone please tell me what this doll is worth or give me a way I can find out?
Seymour Mann dolls are mass produced and generally sell at stores like Walmart, Target, K-mart and have very little collectible value. They make thousands of each doll which means different types/sizes are available for very low prices and are very slow sellers when listed on the doll auction sites like eBay and Etsy.
You do not give the name of your doll but since they are generally all low priced the name/size would probably not make very much difference. The true value of your doll would probably run between $8 - $25 but may take a long time to sell.
If you are interested in selling your doll then I would suggest listing it on Craigslist where someone can actually see your doll and no shipping involved. Start the price at $45 and adjust if necessary.
There are a lot of these dolls listed on eBay and Etsy so if you do not know the name of your doll, you may be able to locate her on one of these sites. Just remember, all of the prices are asking prices and may never sell even if the asking price is $.99.

Watch if your item is being sold on E- bay and how much.It will give you an idea what your doll is worth.Listed prices do not matter it is actual sales that matter.Do this for about 2 months.
These dolls are mass-produced and don't have much value, even when new and still in the box. If it's a large one, you might get $50
Reselling dolls are difficult and especially a doll that is mass produced and sold through many local stores. You can try selling your doll on Craig's list or on eBay. Normally they take a long time to sell. If you have a yard sale or your church is having a Bazaar you might be able to sell it easier.
I would price match it on Etsy and eBay but that's a bit hard when they're just for sale and not actually selling or being bid on. Try to look around on the doll for serial numbers and dates, too.
First, you'll need to see if you can figure out the basics of when and by whom the doll was manufactured. Most dolls will have a manufacturer's stamp on them, and a marking indicating the year they were made.Then go on E-Bay to see how much your doll has been sold for ,actual sales only.
I just wanted to know how much this doll is worth. I looked all over the internet and can't find anything. It says her name is Christa. I'm starting to think it may be a fake.
I was gifted these two porcelain dolls from an elderly aunt. They're approx. 6 inches long, 100% porcelain except the hair, and weren't in a box. Sadly she passed before I could get any history. I can't locate anything online and only have the information sealed on their backs. The clothing appears to be crocheted and be the original outfits. The arms and legs are moveable with what feels to be a rubber band or similar item, but limbs themselves aren't bendable. If you can't read the backs in the photo, it states:
THE CONNOISSEUR
Doll Collection
* I can't make out the larger black letters, that has the name 'Seymour'
written above.
Seymour Mann, Inc
Bunny (?)
(Both numbered) 134/7500
Thank you in advance for any information you may have. Bless you,

I just got these today. I am so excited. I know it's crazy I am 55 years of age and these are the first dolls I ever had. I grew up hard and fast , and I was never allowed to have dolls or anything a little girl would dream of ever having. I was at a Goodwill and I stumbled across them.
My finance bought them. Crazy I know but I started to cry. They are so beautiful and I feel so lucky to have found them. I don't know how much they are worth and it matters VERY LITTLE. I just wanted to share my story. Hope you don't mind me sharing.I have a Seymour Mann porcelain doll in the original box. Both the doll and the box are in pristine condition. She has designed by June Amos Grammer exclusively for (c) Seymour Mann, Inc 1993 and 211/2500 stamped on the back of her neck. There is a certificate of authenticity, about the artist, doll care, and the name Kristy on paperwork that is included.
Can you tell me what she is worth?
I have a vintage porcelain baby doll in christening dress with a pillow from Seymour Mann's Connoisseur Collection. I just want to know if the doll has any cash value.
I wanted to know the value of a Seymour Mann Connoisseur Collection doll. The style number is CED 200A/D. I looked everywhere and can't find the exact one. It was bought in 1984.
I have the Seymour Mann doll, Jody. I would like to know what it is worth.
On eBay there is a very large selection of these dolls. The dolls sell between 30 to 200 dollars. Keep in mind this is the asking price of the doll and not what they sell for.
Many of these dolls sit on eBay for long periods of time. Nobody is interested in them. Therefore, many people cancel their listing on the site.
Your best option is to wait until the holidays and see if you can sell it then. More people will buy these types of items the closer it gets to the holidays.
I can't find anything about this set, maybe you can help? The are Seymour Mann, Megan and Mike dolls. They are sitting on a bench with gift boxes on their knees.
At least I need a value.Thank you =)
An easy online search for "porcelain doll values" will produce many answers. Keep in mind that just because a doll may be fancy, old, inherited, etc., it most probably has little value as most are mass produced in the thousands and very often include a fake certification, the rather misleading term limited edition etc., in their names. A doll's condition is extremely important in considering value-the best doll prices are paid for dolls literally never removed from their boxes. You can find prices for some dolls on EBay and try online for further research. This site is a good place to start:

I saw something similar on eBay for $65.
Seymour Mann dolls are mostly mass produced and because of this, the actual value of their dolls is usually very low. This company also made quite a few "sets" of 2 dolls and usually they were 11" dolls. Most of them were either character dolls or Christmas theme dolls.
It appears that your dolls are of the Christmas theme and sometimes in the months of November and December these dolls will bring more money than at other times of the year. Judging from the actual prices paid for sets on eBay and Etsy, I would value your dolls at $40 to 50 dollars.
Dolls do not usually sell quickly on any site and bring very little money if sold to a store. I would recommend listing on Craigslist if you plan to sell. Just remember that good pictures are what sells an item.

I have bride doll in its original box certified January 16 1988. Does it have a value and if so how much?
Seymour Mann are usually very beautiful dolls but there were so many produced that true value is very low.
Auction sites are usually the best place to find the really true value of a doll like this as it shows what people are trying to sell and also what dolls actually sold for.
Here is a listing of Seymour Bride Dolls presently listed on eBay and their asking price - some sellers have the same dolls listed for months and months and may never sell them - others may sell faster but not often. You may find a doll like yours or similar:

What's it's worth?
