Hello! I am looking for some advice on how much I should be listing my dolls for to sell online. It is a bit hard to tell with such a large difference in prices online, so thank you for any information.
They have all been stored in a glass display cabinet and are in perfect condition with no chips or scratches, although I do not have the original packaging.
Most of them are from Homeart, one from Bellefin, one from the Florence Collection, and the last one is unknown (her name is Kathleen, though I remember that).
Thanks again for any help with how much I should list them for, and maybe which platform would be best (Facebook, eBay etc).

Dolls with their original accessories and packaging are often more desirable than those without. One excellent way to sell dolls quickly is eBay. Craigslist will also attract consumers looking for dolls.
Be as specific as you can when describing your dolls. Information about size and condition are crucial in attracting buyers. Clear, detailed pictures and unambiguous descriptions will give buyers confidence in your listings.
Be prepared to accept offers you can live with. Counteroffer if you need to. Don't expect full, retail value from your sale. Collectors expect discounts when they are buying from non-professionals, and dealers need to make their own investments to find customers at full price.
Once you've agreed on a price, complete the deal by taking payment and transferring possession of the items to the buyer. If you are selling online, pack your items carefully so they arrive in good condition. Porcelain dolls should have their porcelain parts carefully padded and be placed in a large box with enough packing to ensure there is no movement of fragile parts inside the box.
To give you an idea of what Homeart dolls are selling for on ebay. $10-$80:

Etsy listing:
These are all mass-produced dolls that decreased drastically in value. The most you could get is $25 for a doll that was never taken out of the box.
I would sell as a lot, and give a 10% discount if the person buys the whole thing.
Because of the hundreds of dolls like these, you may only bring in $10 to $25 each. You could advertise that they have been protected and in great condition along with good staging.
It seems to me that this is the same doll as yours: Vintage 1990s Homeart Fine Bisque, price $28.88 www.jxpays.cf/
