About a week ago, I went through some very old boxes that hadn't been touched in a while, and found my Polynesian Barbie from 1995. I originally was like meh, sell- I'm not a doll person at all.

But recently, I cleaned her up and she's much nicer now and I kind of like her? I am torn as to whether to keep or sell her! I know it's a bit of a personal matter but if any of you are Barbie people, I'd love your feedback on it! I honestly don't know which way to go so I need some help making an executive decision :P

Here's a photo of her- I just undid all the dreadlocks in her hair!

That's weird I was just looking up my old Barbies on the internet too! (and I am not a Barbie person either so it's weird for me to come to the arena and the first post I see is about your old Barbie!)... I think she's really cute. I love the Barbies that have dark hair. When I was a kid I remember having like 15 Barbies with blonde hair and only 2 with brown hair and always thought the brown haired ones were really special (mostly because I have brown hair and there are so many blonde ones around, you know?) I think your Barbie is gorgeous, she's really beautiful and you kept her in great condition. If you only have one Barbie from childhood and this is it, I would keep her. Maybe you have memories of playing with her, maybe you would have kids that you can give your Barbie too (if not now in the future) If it were me and I only had one Barbie from childhood I would keep her. Besides I don't think she's that valuable or anything, but if someone says that she is, and I were you, that's when I would try to sell her. Just my 2 cents :)

She's lovely and in great condition. I keep all my Barbies form childhood (around six); if this is the only one you have I would also keep her; well, I would keep her anyway. I think you will regret if you sell her right now that you have just found her. Sometimes it has happened to me that I find something and get rid of it and a few months later I reckon it has been a mistake. Keep her at least a few months...
