All these dolls are mass-produced and lose value over time. They are worth $25 or less If they are largest, they may be worth $35.
Ashley Belle dolls are considered as low to very low value dolls because, as Judy stated, these are all mass produced dolls and these or similar dolls (numerous brands) are listed for sale by the hundreds/thousands every day.
Actually, being more realistic, Judy's stated values are probably too high as the average price for Ashley Belle dolls may only run $5-$20 and it may take several months to sell or may never sell at any price.
eBay is considered the largest doll selling site in the world and eBay is usually the site appraisers use to find current values of ordinary, low value dolls.
Since you have several dolls to check out it would more feasible for you to do your own research since you have the dolls available to check for identical or similar dolls.
All of the same information is available to everyone and with just a few tips you will be able to find what information you need.
Please review the 2 links below to help you understand how to do research:

You can search eBay for your dolls. You can narrow the field by brand name, doll name, size (height). Check out eBay asking prices to see if you can find any of your dolls and place a watch on any exact or similar dolls to see if they sell.

You will notice from the information sites that asking prices have very little relation to current value of dolls as asking prices just show what a seller would really like to receive and since that very rarely happens it is kinda like "pie in the sky" as only sold dolls can show what someone is actually willing to pay.
You can check for sold listings on eBay to see if one of your dolls has sold in the past several months and also get a pretty good picture of what people are actually willing to pay for an Ashley Belle doll.
Now - it is true that occasionally one particular doll will sell for a higher price but we have no way to know how long the doll may have been listed before the sale as many doll sellers will leave their wares listed for months or even years (I am aware of one doll that has been listed on eBay for at least 4 years and may or may not ever sell).
You should check the sold listing frequently just in case a similar doll sold so you will have a better idea of the current value.

Below is my research on your lovely dolls:
The Ashley Belle Wild Eagle--there are several are on eBay at the moment with asking prices of 29.99 you will want to watch them to see if they sell. If they sell, that will be their current market value.
The other Ashely Belle, I cant locate an exact match, but these dolls are generally considered low end of the price scale, and if they sell, they usually fetch very little ($1-15).
I cant find exact matches of the Greensboro collection dolls on any site--either active or sold. I see where people are are asking in the $20-50 range for similar dolls. I can tell you that these sellers are very ambitious as these dolls rarely fetch those amounts. They typically sell in the $15 range, if they sell.
My suggestion to most folks who want to sell dolls is to skip selling and donate the dolls to a children's hospital or woman's shelter where a child can have and love them. That is the true value of a doll...to be loved by a child!
Thanks for sharing! Post back with an update!
