8 Collectible Dolls That Sell Well on eBay
From the beginning, eBay's primary growth came from the
collectibles market. There are two basic models for eBay
sales:
1. Currently available consumers goods. This is a price-
driven model, and although smart sellers can earn above- average
prices, buyers are there looking for a bargain and price is the
#1 consideration.
2. Other buyers are collectors, looking for one-of-a-kind
unique items that they can't locate elsewhere. Here, price isn't
as important as it is with consumer goods. The power of this
market is obvious because, before eBay and the Internet, most
collectors were confined to a local market.
Dolls have always been big sellers as eBay collectibles and
eight of them are especially strong sellers:
1. The Cabbage Patch Kids began in 1978 and are never "sold".
They are 'born' at Babyland General Hospital in Cleveland,
Georgia and proud parents pay an 'adoption fee'. The Cabbage
Patch Kids were one of the greatest toy phenomenons of the later
20th century. At one time, it was a common sight to see grown
women shopping and lunching with their babies in hand. In
restaurants, the Kids had their own chairs and were always
appropriately dressed for the weather.
2. Precious Moments began in the early 1970s when creator Sam
Butcher began drawing the endearing teardrop-eye children as
gifts for family and friends. Today Sam's Precious Moments
artwork is among the most recognized in the world, and eBay
prices reflect this popularity.
3. Madame Alexander dolls were created in 1923. These beloved
dolls range from Charlie Brown to babies and children to elegant
dressed women to glamorous and famous women like Greta Garbo and
Judy Garland. With all the varieties of costumes, a single doll
can be a 1920s flapper as easily as a member of the court of
Louis XIV.
4. Lee Middleton dolls, according to legend, are so real in
appearance that grown men sent for a rescue squad to save "the
baby" from a locked car! Mistaken identity is supposedly a
frequent occurrence and the dolls have been counted as
"passengers" on airplanes and rescued from store countertops to
prevent the 'baby' from falling. As one happy owner says, "These
dolls are so lifelike it's uncanny."
5. American Girl dolls are loved by millions of little girls
(and grown ups, too!) They are not only from different times and
places, but are ethnically diverse: Felicity from colonial
Virginia; Josephina from the 1830's in New Mexico; Kirsten is "a
pioneer girl of strength and spirit growing up in Minnesota in
1854"; Addy is alive in the 186o's, having escaped from slavery
with her mother; Samantha is "a bright Victorian girl living with
her wealthy grandmother in 1904"; Kit is growing up in 193os,
during America's Great Depression; Molly lives in the 1940's
while her dad is away at war; Kaya is a Nez Perce Indian living
in the northwest.
6. Hasbro dolls are one of the products of the gigantic Hasbro
company, who claim to have been making toys for eight
generations, including famous games like Monopoly, Scrabble and
Clue.
7. Bratz dolls, unlike older dolls like Madame Alexander and
Cabbage Patch Kids, have no long history as favorite toys or
collectibles. Nevertheless, their price has astonished eBay
sellers and the Bratz collection was one of the 'super hits' of
the 2003 holiday season and sales have been strong ever
since.
8. And, no surprise, Barbie is the best-selling doll on eBay.
Since Mattel has recently announced that Ken and Barbie will no
longer be an "item", dolls from the 'good old days' when the name
"Barbie" was rarely heard without 'Ken', will inevitably become
more valuable.
Anyone who loves and understands the doll market, can do very
well selling dolls on eBay. They've been strong sellers for the
10 years eBay has been in existence and are almost certain to
remain popular for years to come.
