Silly me!I had been watching a porcelain doll on Ebay all week. I was all set to buy her. She sold for $2800.00 DOLLARS! A tad out of my range(I was set to bid $79.00 Big LAUGH!!)Just loved her face.

We all get suprizes sometimes. That's quite a sum it went for - can't picture myself paying that kind of money for a doll. (Maybe someone would like to buy my walking doll that is now 55 yrs. old)hehe.

Quite a sweet looking face but you saved your money. I have a couple of dolls that were my mother's. But I did buy myself a baby doll - looks like a real baby.

Maybe you could take up the rebirthing of dolls thing yourself -it's quite popular these days :) They really do go for big prices and some of the sellers go to great detail with the bedding and clothing etc as well.

I've never been a fan of dolls but she's very pretty. What would you do with her had you won the auction?

I HAVE AN ANTIQUE WICKER STROLLER WAITING FOR A DOLL..

I don't do eBay. I am already addicted to other things. She is pretty!!

The little face plus the straw hat won me over. Too bad(for me) she went for so much.
I'll just keep looking.
Anabella made a beautiful ballerina. Made she'll sell them so we can all buy one.

Stella she is beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Hugs Yvonne

Stella, she is lovely.

Stella what a pity :o( She really is a beauty.
I get the silhouettes! Thank you again for the tip :o)
Greetings, Bettina

That looks like a reproduction doll to me. Wonder why she went for so much. I collect antique dolls also.

Hmmm....I collect french dolls. She just doesn't look that old. But it's hard to tell sometimes from the photo if a doll is authentic. Someone thought she was that old.

I agree...she looks like one of my daughter's dolls, still in a closet in her "former" room:>)
