Title: Price check on Dream Beauty "Spritzy"
Post by: LadyMoondancer on November 12, 2017, 12:20:36 PM
To my amazement, I found a G1 at a thrift store for the first time in a long time. :)  It's DB Spritzy.  Could I get a price check on her, please?

She's a Trim 'n Grow Dream Beauty so, unsurprisingly, she has a haircut.  Her aqua hair and pink (removable) tail have been cut.  Also her pink tail is faded.  She should have a pink forelock plug, but it's gone.  She also has some small marks.

Super CG!
What an exciting find! That pearly coat is easy to scuff too and it looks like hers is in super shape!
These guys with replaceable hair are super easy to fix too, with a bit of dollyhair and a zip tie or two the mane/bangs hole & tail can be restored to looking good as new.
The problem is I haven't seen one of these guys on ebay in quite a while to know a good expected rate. (Nor here either at trades/sales) That the tail is still the original plug thing though should be worth at least some more, even if whoever makes/displays with a replaced tail.

Thanks for the reply and the info!  Ohhh, good point about the hair being easily replaceable!  Maybe I'll hide her "head hole" with some custom hair for the moment.  I don't have any pink but I do have white.  :)

I got a VNM one for $68, so I'd say closer to $55 with a haircut but with her pearly coating in good shape.  She should have fading pink and Lemondrop-purple hair, if you want to make her some replacement plugs.  :)

I searched foreeeeeeever for this girl! She’s definitely one of the harder to find dream beauties. She was my last one. Even with the haircut I’d say at least $75. I think I bought mine on a buy it now for that much I think. At that point it could’ve been a BIN for $200 and I would’ve bought it cause I didn’t care at that point. I just wanted my hands on her lol!

It's funny, I think she and Sheertrimmer were my last Dream Beauties needed. :P  To me, this set was definitely the hardest to track down.  I cannot remember what I paid for my Spritzy; I want to say it was about US $55 and she does have her forehead hair plug.  But that was probably about 5 or 6 years ago so I wouldn't be surprised if her value has gone up since then.  Like others have said, I have not seen one for sale recently to give a current value.  She's a very nice find!  :D
