[img]smile.gif[/img] I know, Linda...you always do so well with your ebay dolls. I think my wanting new ones, goes back to when my DD was little. Every time she'd get a new AG, one of the best parts was opening that box together, and smelling in that new doll smell. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I've gotten three four dolls from ebay.

One...I paid more than AG price, because she was a pre-mattel Lissie. But she seemed old.

Another was a Gotz doll that was horribly dirty.

Also, a PM Sam, that smelled, and just wasn't quite right to me.

The fourth, was a white body Kirsten...and I guess I did like her. I just never really bonded with her. We have DD's PM Kirsten ( in mint shape) in her box in the storage room. She just seemed prettier to me. NO doubt, because she was DD's.

All in all...I just prefer that new doll thing. I really enjoy reading posts about everyone's pre-loved ebay dolls, though...
