Well, I was lucky with my Josefina, I don't know if she is PM or not, but she is beautiful, but I had so many disappointments lately with the used dolls!!!! Once I saw a comparison on an ebay auction (Josefina PM and Mattel) and didn't notice a significant difference so... my answer is: if you can, buy her NIB from AG!!!! That's the way I want to buy my Addy, will not take any chances, I would be really really mad if my Addy was less than perfect.
