Have you bought a doll - and then regret it?

[faunabay]

I don't necessarily regret buying any but I have a few I bought when I was just getting into monster high and learning which ones I really liked the most.  So I have a KS Clawdeen, SO Clawdeen, and KS Opie that have been stuck away to see if I like them more later.     They may go to another home one of these days because I pull them out and just kind of go

I'm not a MIB kind of gal but both have just been taken out and hair brushed.

I think carefully about what I buy, so my only regret is when CAM first came out and had only one torso, I bought three of each pack:  so I could make both dolls inside each pack and also make two of the bonus add on characters (three eyed ghoul and bee).  If I had waited, I would have done much better when they started shipping two torsos in each pack.

OH YES!  I completely forgot about the one torso CAM days!  I bought slim line dolls to mod into usable bodies for the Add-On CAMs.  They turned out terrible   I ruined a few dolls, and a few Add-Ons.  I regret that.  BIG time:( 

I was as happy as I could be with them though.  Using a SS Abbey as a base for the 3 eyed ghoul was more visually appealing than using hot pink extras.  I just wish Mattel had figured all that stuff out before releasing them

And we are STILL getting incomplete Add-Ons

I only have regrets on purchases I have missed out on. I've missed so many good deals on ebay, because I fell asleep when I meant to bid on it something, and looked back later and saw it went for really cheap! Like I missed a scooter Ghoulia with all the accessories from the scooter without the actual scooter for 15 dollars yesterday   I also passed up Toralei and Spectra's first fashion packs for 10 each.

Also still kicking myself, because I skipped out on sig Oppie because I liked the concept of PD Oppie so much. But she turned out really different from how I thought she would.

[angelfish]

No big regrets but had I known how wanted and rare Holt turned out to be I would've bought a bunch of them to sell and use for trades when he was everywhere!

I used to regret not getting Toralie when I saw her once but my fiance just bought me the Fearleading Trio so...yay!

I have bought a few from the store that I regretted in the long run. I actually just got tired of MH after buying so many of them. In all honesty, they were all just reissues to me. I sold some on eBay and took some back for store credit or a refund. I am now only allowing myself to buy new characters, and only if I like them. My bond with MH dolls didn't last like the bond with ponies and some of my other 80s toys.
I am sure once I see the new characters in stores I wanna get, such as Twyla and Catty, my interest will be renewed. But right now I am just burnt and will keep what I have. After all, I do love my relatively small collection of dolls. I just don't feel the need to own ten Draculauras.

I think I own 10 Draculauras and I love them all  but that's just me. All my ghouls are out of the box and can't be returned. We only have a two week return policy in Finland as it is.

I regret not buing SO Cleo and Deuce when I saw them cheap and Clawd and Lala and 2.0 Cleo when I saw them in a store.

When I first started collecting, I changed my mind ALOT. I had DDG Lagoona, SS Lagoona, SS Frankie (Colored), and I fell out of love with them so gave them to my mom.  I also used to have Wave 2 Frankie, Clawdeen, and Cleo but took them back to the stores I bought them from.  I also sold my Killer Style Frankie & Lala on the boards because I changed my mind.  I even had Sweet 1600 Lala, took her back, and then bought her again lol.  I've learned that I like the dolls that are more dressed up then in plain school clothes.

The only thing I regret is not getting into MH sooner so I could get dolls like Toralei and Holt before they got super rare and ridiculously expensive.

[rosierjay]

i'm hoping the new toralei will be worth the buy and not a huge regret....

[Nana-Rena]

Which Toralei is that?

I agree with you, but stay diligent in your search, I just got a like new basic Toralei complete for $30 loose.  I'm not too set on getting Holt, I find him incredibly irritating in the show which makes me want him less, lol.
