Buyer of my stolen doll is refusing to give back my property

I had a bunch of dolls stolen from my basement a few months ago, including the two dolls above. I got all of them back except my porcelain Abigail, who was sold on eBay for a mere $95.

The police have been in contact with the buyer of my Abigail and discovered that she customized my doll. Fortunately though, she had an uncustomized Abigail she was willing to send me instead because her children were attached to mine.

Today, the detective told me the buyer changed her mind and was now looking to SELL the pristine Abigail for $250 and was likewise unwilling to give me MY doll back. The police local to her are not going to pursue the case any further.

I’m taking her to small claims court at this point. It’s really fucked up to try profiting off someone else’s misfortune and refusing to return stolen property.

Edit: The daughter got into contact with me and is very generously giving me the uncustomized doll for free. She’s a very sweet person and I’m glad we were able to solve this amicably 🖤

Collection of two years 🖤

I only have three shelves to work with so I have to be very selective about what manga I add to my collection

Seeking stolen dolls

Someone recently burglarized my basement and stole over 30 dolls. Most of them were returned, except the two above. They’re Living Dead Dolls, with porcelain faces and standing about a foot and a half tall. The thief was caught but isn’t admitting to what he did with them, and the police have been in his home but they weren’t there. I tried Bartertown Toys in the downtown mall and Artifacts with no luck
