OT: size of Tyler vs. Daisy/Willow
by Choic4guys＠aol.com 12 Mar '03

12 Mar '03

Do any of you know if Daisy/Willow clothing will fit Tyler? I am hoping that one of you might have both dolls and would be able to give me a comparison of the size. Thanks in advance for any help that you may be able to give Thanks, Randall

OT: sale on Silkstones
by Choic4guys＠aol.com 11 Mar '03

11 Mar '03

Hey, I just wanted to mention that www.mfd.net has some Silkstone items on sale. Here are the prices: Country Bound $17 Maria Therese $57 Well, my reason for e-mail was I just got Black Enchantment fashion but apparently it just sold out! It was only $17. I think they did have the the acessory set for that too but it sold out before I placed my order. Although I have liked the Silkstone line since it was first introduced I have not bought many items. I missed the first two lingerie dolls ... I will admit I didn't have any faith in Mattel at the time and on a limited budget I don't want to buy dolls at regular price if they're going to go on sale a couple of months later. I loved the black hair on the third one so I did buy her but didn't expect her to go up in value. I was wrong again. They are consistently selling on eBay for $100+ and of course you can't really touch the first and second ones for under $225. Now there are several more that I want that are selling out at many stores. So, my point is if you are interested in any of these dolls, PAY ATTENTION and buy them before they sell out .... and of course hope that Mattel stays smart and they will retain their value. Randall

Am I nuts or what???

Me again, I hate to be a pest but I wanted to mention that my total boxed collection of Barbie and Candi and other fashion dolls are not completely figures in the the amount of dolls I previously mentioned. I am not a deboxer (I take just a few out) so all these new shelves are lined with all my boxed dolls also. Here is a good idea for anyone wanting to put shelves up. The shelf goes up and they you get a piece of wood about 1-1/2" on the top and about 5" long. They come in 12' lengths. I put them in the back of the shelf and it becomes a "riser" allowing you to have an extra "layer" of dolls. So you can put boxes/dolls on the top shelf which would be the "riser" and then more dolls on the shelf - now you will have two "layers" - it has to be adjusted so that you can put a doll on the shelf and still be able to see the dolls on the riser. In front of them I am putting my de-boxed dolls so you sort of have 3 layers. Karla

> but I am more > into differences; ethnic, age, size and whatever might > interest me at the moment. Hello, What fashion dolls have you found in the age and size categories? I'm always looking for them, too, and it's not easy! I have the Princess Marie doll from the Anastasia movie and a couple of vintage mystery dolls (possibly by Uneeda) with salt n pepper grey hair. I keep looking for the Happy Family Grandma doll. Fat dolls are even harder to find. I have Mimi and Rosie. Finding a grey haired, fat, womon of color doll would really make my day!! I'd love to swap pictures and info with you if you are so inclined. -------------------------- “I pledge allegiance to the health of the United World of the Universe and to the Earth on which we stand, one planet born of love, indivisible, with rights and responsibilities for all.” ~~ Ginni Clemmons - 1936 - 2003 - Founding Mother of the Womyn's Music Movement Teach/Learn: <A HREF="http://www.tolerance.org/">Tolerance.org</A>

For those interested in the Avon dolls SEARCH EBAY. Simply Charming Barbie is not getting any bids. There is one going for $9.99 right now. Seems silly to pay full price when you can get them so cheap. Randall

Thank you Melissa, We're very excited. We've been married 12 years and never thought we could. So We are very very thrilled, even if he gets my dollie room:) hahaha Maybe there will be a room for them later. I am not going to stop collecting though. It might slow down due to the $$$$. However, they will still trickle in:) Thanks, Sher:) -----Original Message----- From: Eugene Bradford [mailto:ebradfrd@crosslink.net] Sent: Monday, March 10, 2003 9:47 AM To: Galaxy(a)allvantage.com Subject: CandiChat Re: Not a lonely Nut Anymore Congratulations, Sher!

I was collecting Barbies back with Avon started doing them but, as usual, they overproduced and all the ones I had can still be obtained at 1/4 the retail price ... Perhaps they are now doing a better job at keeping production numbers low. Randall
