Yeah, I've seen all the other princesses get down to about $100, but Ariel is never under $200. I have a friend that got hers for $230 in January and that was "cheap" :\

And i was just looking up prices. The only other princess I wanted was ariel. And the cheapest I find her is $399. Some even $599! Just for one doll. Some people are selling the collection for over $1,000!

I would have vastly preferred a huge exchange happening than people buying them up and reselling them for hundreds of dollars. It was a disgusting feeling watching parents have to pay $300 bucks for an Ariel doll for their child. If I had enough money to buy up more and exchange them or sell them for the price they were actually sold at, I would have, but $70 a pop was already tough. How anyone can even afford to drop $350 on all five of the dolls in stock at a store was astonishing.

yeah that was the disney store closest to me and I got up early to get there. But eleven people? isnt that redonkulous? I went to other places and I already had given up when it was in the afternoon. Sigh....these dolls are a pandomonium. Ebay..it is for me.


I heard one store only had like 2 rapunzels. I went to my Disney store at 5 am to see a line outside the mall with like 5 people in it. I only went for jasmine at first but I made friends with the people ahead of me and they convinced me to buy another, so I bought rapunzel too. Behind me were 5 people who you KNOW we're just going to resell them. Sad

I'm kind of glad I don't have a DS near me anymore. I would hurt someone if they jipped me out of a doll and hunt down where they live Laughing

What's funny is her doll was up for at least a few days. I don't get why everyone suddenly wanting her when they had a decent opportunity before Laughing


That's true... Lol. I went to one of the Disney Stores by me around noon the day she sold to be nosy Razz... She did sell out that morning but she was online for quite a few days before she sold out. The drama didnt start until Snowwhite and she's not even selling for as much now. Lol. Wierd. I saw several Jasmine ones with opening bids under 140 that werent even being bid on today... Also wierd... Good but wierd.

It's hell trying to open the box anyway, so I doubt you'd want to open it if you could Laughing. It's mounted on a base, so you have to do some handy work to get it out of there. People have ruined parts of their dolls trying to get them out of the box, so I wouldn't bother with it.

I am DELIGHTED to hear all those eBayers flooded the market and now the dolls are selling at lower prices because it was ridiculous they even over-priced them like that to begin with and scalped them from people unfairly by buying up all the stock so they'd have to go online. I hear the first five are selling at higher prices still, though, like Ariel in particular.


Oh my! I just looked up Ariel and ur right! Thank goodness Im not looking to get her! I feel bad for the people who really want get her tho Sad. Tiana is going for 120-150... Thats not bad compared to 300-400.


Oh, and snowwhite 150-180... Still "reasonable".
