Help with figuring out this (MAYBE?) Barbie stuff...
« on: June 06, 2015, 07:14:29 AM »
Hey, all!  I'm pretty sure this is the first post I've made on this section of the arena... ;)

Ok, so here's the situation:

I bought a lot last year that had some pony stuff in it - but also a ton of this doll stuff.  I'm assuming the majority of it is Barbie, but I don't have the time or patience or will-power/drive to put it all together for pictures - so I just laid it all out. 

1)  Is there anything in here of any value?  (Value being anything more than like $10 because to me this looks like just random stuff)
2)  Is there anyone here that wants any of this? 
3)  I'm going to post something like this thread over in the fair forum, so if you DO want any of this, and ARE ALSO going to the fair, I can always just work with you to get it there.  Assuming there's nothing of any large value, I'd just be willing to sell the whole lot of stuff cheap.  I know sometimes the little glasses and cups and such can be used with similar sized dolls...or whatever (see - I know SO much about dolls, don't I?  LoL)

Some plastic door looking things that have patterns in them (like swans):

Well then, welcome to the Dollhouse!!!! :happy:

  I am no Barbie expert, by No means but to my eyes I'm going to say Yes! You do have some stuff of value in that lot. I see some Barbie and the Rockers accessories as well as what I believe is pieces to one of the Dreamhouses. I can't guess to the value of any of it, but some of what you have is definitely worth something! LOL

  Let's see what the other dollyheads have to say about it all! :momiji:

Thanks so much!  I can always take some better pictures if you guys need it.  I really, truly appreciate the help with this.  I'm seriously so clueless with it all.

No problem!! I would definitely take all of it to the fair if you don't get any interest here; there are enough doll collectors that frequent the fairs that you could probably find buyers for the majority of it.

I would personally be interested in all of the Rockers accessories, but I am only trading atm and I honestly have NO idea how we would go about finding out values for it all. :silly:

  I know we do have some Barbie-knowledgeable folk around here though; hopefully they'll mosey in soon to give their valued opinions. :)

It's been a long time since I was a serious Barbie collector  and I was mostly into LE/collector dolls apart from my childhood 80's ones... so I'm waaay out of the loop here, but I do agree with Cherry - theres some Barbie and the rockers stuff, and other items either from the dream house (or more than one of them - there were a few different ones), some of the furniture/food sets you could buy separately - so theres like a fridge type set/cooker etc - those you could buy for the houses. Some items may have come with a McD/s type set. Not the early 80's one (I do know about that one) but the fries etc might be from a similar later set.  Looks like 80's /90's stuff mostly but I cant identify all of it and I don't know the values :blush: 
I do know there are people here who know a lot about Barbie /accessories etc  as well as collectors -and I do think you'll have interest in those items. As Cherry said, if no-one is around the forums here ATM, taking the lot to the fair would also be a good idea :)

You have some pieces from one of the Barbie pool sets (year would be somewhere in 1988-1992).  I see the pink lounge chairs, the plant, and the base of the table.

Thank you guys for your help!  I really appreciate it.  I think I'm going to take the lot to the fair and just see if anyone wants to shoot me an offer for it there unless anyone here eventually wants it before that :) 

Thanks again for the assistance!  I knew you all would know something about this massive heap of Barbie-ness!

Some of your pieces come from the "Patio Party" set, (plant/stand and lounge chairs).

Possibly also the "Dance Cafe" (speaker) there were several Barbie piano's and in the picture I can't quite see the decals on yours. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/71JG2jNIm4L._SX466_.jpg

There are several pieces from the Barbie and the Rockers "Rocks Cafe".

Hope that helps.

The pieces are the same mold as the patio party set but it's actually from the pool set.  I had the exact one as a child, same colors.  :)

Good eye though!
