How to buy cheaper dolls between us
I’m looking to connect with other collectors to figure out a better way for us to buy, sell, and trade dolls fairly.
A bit of backstory: I had been on a hospital waitlist for an important surgery for 3.5 years. A month ago, I made the tough decision to sell my entire collection at fair prices to cover the costs. Of course, right after I sold everything, the hospital finally called to say I was next in line.
The timing was brutal, but what hurts more is trying to rebuild now. The exact dolls I sold are being resold everywhere for $100–$300+, which I just can't afford.
It made me realize how much we need a tight-knit system or circle where genuine collectors can buy and re-home dolls at actual fair market value without getting gouged by resellers. I’d love to start something—or join an existing group—where nice collectors look out for each other. Anyone interested in working on this together?
Btw I’m based in Europe ( Portugal) and usually buy through vinted. I’m mostly trying to rebuild my ever after high dolls and some monster high. I sold all my creepos for the price I paid for them (plus shipping)
Then people were seeking the same creepos for 100+
