edit Changing this post from a price check to a "sale" post.  I like these little darlings, but am more than willing to party with them for the right price.  Please feel free to make an offer - PM me :)

Original post:
More thrift finds!  And yes, I am still out shopping (lol)

Ok: Punzie is incomplete - replacement dress & no Pascale.  The dress ahe is wearing is the "My First Princess" version.

Tink has her dress w/wings & shoes!  I don't know if she came with anything else.

Any help with price range would be great since I'd like to sell them ;)

Nice finds! 

Just looking at sold eBay auctions, looks like that Tink can go for anywhere between $5-$20 and that Rapunzel, even missing parts, can get up to $25-$30

Huzzah!  Thanks, Barbgirl!

...maybe I should edit this thread a bit...

Oh my word - I just spent the better part of an hour brushing Rapunzel's hair!  It took my hairbrush, my dog's specialty hairbrush (extra long pins), and my ultra-expensive hair serum.  It's tangle-free, but this tinsel is amazing - as soon as it moves it wants to knot up again.

I learned this is the 2010 version and she originally came with a nightgown.  Apparently, after this version, they ditched the tinsel and re-did the neck joint.  This one has extra forward tilt (makes her look all cute & shy) & swivels 360 degrees.

On to cleaning up Tink!

Just washed Tink's hair and restyled it to make it neater.  It still had its factory curl/original rubber band, but needed a bit more help to reshape the bun.

Her wings are very...limp.  I don't like the idea of floppy wings, so I broke out the fabric starch!  I almost never use starch, so I can't wait to see how it turns out.  I super-saturated the wings, though, so it will be a while before they're dry.

I'll share pictures of them both soon :D

Thanks!  I know, right?  I never find toddler dolls in good condition or with their complete outfits.

I really have fallen in love with Rapunzel, especially after putting so much effort in taming her locks...but apparently her version sells on eBay from anywhere between $50 - $400 ($100-ish being the most common).  That's just nuts!

Oh wow!  She's the 2010 version?  Even better find, lol!  I couldn't tell that from looking at the original pic, haha. 

They both look FANTASTIC after you've cleaned them up...I'm tempted by that Tink!

I just listed them on eBay...but...I did put high prices on them.  I like them too, lol.  I want to keep them, but if someone wants to buy them...well, you know how it is XD.  I'm starting Tink at $35 & Punzie at $150.  Here are some more pictures because I know we all love pictures:

MANY years ago I had found a My First Alice...now I kinda regret not having her anymore (I think I traded her?).  Seems like I have an instant Disney Toddler collection XD

Someone who's kid was tired of playing with it.

The first time I went to this store, I found a vintage Tickled Pink doll in near mint condition.  No one at the store is remotely aware of what they're selling.  They do list things for auction, but again, they have no idea the value of their items.  Makes thrifting fun again!
