when selling play line dolls, mib or loose?
« on: April 08, 2015, 09:50:16 AM »
I have some ever after and monster high dolls I need to clear out. Most of them are still MIB. No one rare or anything like that. I've found most people do not want to pay for the higher shipping for a mib doll. Would you debox everyone in order to sell or just offer it?

I really would like some fast sales.

I think that boxed Monster High dolls will get more.  Unfortunately, the value of the MH dolls (for any that are not absolutely) seems pretty low on the secondary market (probably because of the many re-releases).  I ended up giving most of mine away to avoid the hassle.

I don't mind selling cheap $5-10 but I don't want to give them away if possible.

I'd keep them MIB and offer to debox for cheaper shipping.  That's what I do for mine that are still boxed.  Some folks don't mind paying the extra, if they are strictly MIB collectors.

Personally, when I have a brand-new doll to sell I list them in my sales as MIB  but offer deboxing for cheaper shipping if the buyer prefers it. That way, they appeal to both MIB and loose collectors.
