These are beautiful dolls but there are so many nice dolls available that a buyer has a large variety to choose from and prices from $15-$150 so you can easily see why your doll is not very valuable - money wise.

• eBay, Etsy and Ruby Lane are the biggest doll selling sites and there are always many hundred to several thousand different brand dolls to choose from.
• Occasionally, someone may be looking for a particular doll and will pay a little more money but still, this is a long shot.
• Most of this brand doll sells for less than $25 dollars and packing (safely) and shipping is always a big job.

• If you want to sell your doll, I would recommend listing it on your local Craigslist as you can start the price at a higher price (even $100) and lower it if no one shows an interest.
• This means an interested person can see the doll before they buy (this means a lot to most people) and there would be no need to pack and ship.
• Using Craigslist is easy (they have a short tutorial on their site) and mostly free, but you will need several photos but you can take these on your cellphone so you do not even need a camera.
• Here are a couple of listings (from 2016 & 2017) of what I believe is your doll but neither one sold (they were listed for several months).

These are mass-produced dolls that are worth less than you paid. I would say you could get $25 for it.

There are so many dolls that are mass produced and don't offer a high resale value. Unfortunately, this is one of the dolls. You'll be lucky to receive $25 on eBay for this doll.
