The above link from ebay.com shows your doll up close and has the series no. 973/1500 and 901714 on the tag also in original box with stand in mint condition selling for $65.00 with $42.42 shipping.
People can ask a large price for any doll they want to sell. Since 2008 the value of all dolls that are mass-produced have greatly declined. You can see the asking price on eBay but to determine the real value you must know the selling price or what the person actually received for selling the doll.
Pretty gal! You can watch the one that Myrna shared with you and if it sells, you will know the current market value.
I can tell you I have seen her sit, unsold as low as 9.99, on other sites I frequent, including some private sale groups.
Bride dolls sell better in May (for June weddings) and September (for October weddings).
If she were mine, I would hold on to her for a bit and sell her at one of those times. I would start high and except any offer, which I would not be surprised would be under 9.99.
I also would avoid an online sale because she is so fragile and find a good in person venue--consignment store or maybe even a store that specializes in wedding items, and try to sell her there.
Best wishes with your sale!!! Post back how it goes!
Good suggestions from other members as dolls are just not on very many people's 'wanted' list anymore.
Young girls are into modern things and probably not many will ever own a doll.
I would suggest you try selling her on local venues so you can post her as 'pick up only' so no shipping is necessary as it is very costly (and hazardous) to ship dolls.
A lot of dolls were being sold on the Holidays, and they are still all over social media! To get a good price try auction/bid for that special buyer. Good Luck!
