How can I sell my Barbie Doll collection?
The answer to this question depends on several factors, including how fast you want to sell, how much time you want to invest in selling and whether or not you have the time and expertise to sell individual items one-at-a-time. Our team will help you choose the best path forward for your particular situation.
Are Barbie Doll collections valuable?
Yes, some are (but not all). Of course, the most important variable when selling anything is CONDITION, or how close to LIKE NEW the item is. Condition determines price, period. Obviously, rarer items command a higher price than more common ones. We are market experts. We know what is valuable and what is not. Our experts will help you separate the trash from the treasure. What are you waiting for?
What are ASK and BID prices?
The ASK price is the retail price. Retail is the price a dealer will ask for and a collector may pay. Getting the retail price takes time because finding a collector willing to pay the going price is not always easy.
BID price is the wholesale price. The wholesale price is the price a reasonable dealer will likely pay. Getting the wholesale price is fast because dealers serve as 'market makers' willing to support the market by standing ready to buy immediately at the bid price. BID is similar to a spot price on the commodities market. It is a 'standing offer price' as defined in economics. IGUIDE APPRAISAL REPORTS always includes the ASK price and will include the current BID price when one is available.
How is the market right now?
The market for Barbie Dolls continues to be strong for high grade rare items and not so great for common pieces in used condition.
