These are cute dolls but very low value.
Dolls of all brands/styles/sizes have flooded the market and there are very few dolls valued over $25 and many are listed for months/years and may never sell.
This particular brand/size doll is actually selling for less than $15 - when/if it sells.
Here is a link to eBay's sold listings for this doll (there may be a few more under different descriptions) so you can see what people are actually paying for these dolls.

The name of the doll will not make very much difference.

This particular doll has been listed for sale for over 2 years; reduced in price - still unsold. Offered for $15.76 and free shipping.

In recent years the doll market has come crashing down and people are trying to sell off the old dolls that they thought if they held onto long enough would be them a good deal of money. This might have been true around 10 years ago but not today.

The dolls you own were created by a company that mass produces dolls in lots of 500-1000 and sells them worldwide. The top price these dolls seem to fetch today is around $15 but most of them are actually selling for $5-10.

This collection is one in hundreds of this type of doll on the market . A lot of these dolls are priced at $25 or more, but very few are bringing in even $20. There are a few auction bid dolls that are moving slow as well. So hard to get $25 and above. Maybe you could sell locally to save on shipping. www.ebay.com/.../i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057...

Can you post a photo of her? I am not familiar with a doll with this name in the collection...but it could just be my old memory.

In general, dolls from the Barbara Lee Petite collection are considered on the low end in the resale world. I have seen them sell (sold not asking) for as low as $1.00 plus shipping and up to 17.99 with free shipping.

The dolls that fetch on the higher end of that scale have their box, original hang tags etc. and are pristine.

Dolls out of the box and those missing paperwork, fetch on the low end.

Thanks for asking. Maybe if I see her (also how tall is she), I may have something more specific to add--what I am giving is general for the brand, in today's market.
