Bob Mackie Ladies and More

I have to get serious about clearing out the extra dolls I have.  Now that Morristown is in the basement, I am reminded daily that I have too much stuff.  Part of making Morristown work better, involves downsizing.  So bare with me as we take a step back, in order to move forward more quickly in the future.

Bob Mackie's Jewel Essence Collection.  These dolls have been sitting together in a glass cabinet.  I took them out with the idea of selling them.  Of course, now that I have them out, I'm not sure that I will sell them.  These dresses are gorgeous and I can imagine some of the Morristown ladies sporting them to a future function.  Below are closeups from the front and back.  With the right offer, I will probably part with them.







Now do you see why I'm considering using these dresses?  They are quite nice.

I do have a couple of dolls that ARE going up for sale.  I'm no longer covering up naked dolls.  The first thing a kid does when they get new dolls, is rip off the clothes.  So I no longer feel the need to do the cover up thing. 
Barbie Basics Model #1, Collection 002  - $19  SOLD!
I really like this doll, but there's just no room for her, here.  She has never been played with.  I did change her hair to see what it would look like.

Harley Davidson #2.  - $19  SOLD!
This character plays a dad in my town, but he makes a great biker, too.

He's fully articulated and comes with a great tattoo and chest hair.

You can see the status of all the dolls I am selling, on my DOLLPAGE site

  2. I kept Ruby Radiance & Sapphire from this line. I sold Diamond & Emerald sometime ago. They were not getting any love so they moved on :O) I have some more goodies to list this weekend

    1. Dollz4Moi - I never got the Sapphire doll. Mine will probably get sold in the near future. I just need a little more time to contemplate these dresses. The dolls are selling for very much, so it might be worth it just to get them and use the dresses.

    2. Laura - Ahhh, sorry to hear you've depleted your allowance. If you ever do want to buy internationally, tell your mum I do it all the time and I've never had a problem. Shipping first class makes the cost reasonable.

  4. Oooh, that's always dangerous, playing with dolls you're considering selling, hehe.

    Yeah, I find that I often amass too many characters while having too little story... and then I just kind of flounder... so I'm going through the same process of getting rid of extra hooligans who are hanging around.

    1. Heather - I have plenty of stories, but I would be doing stories 24/7. LOL. I'm not even going to tell you about the 3 additional dolls I purchased just doing price research on the dolls. Just pitiful.

    1. jewel snake - LOL! Yes, he's still available. Is there anything else you are looking for? Just in case I'm thinking of selling it. Always cheaper to ship 2 dolls internationally.

    2. I need 3 boxed University Cheerleader white Kens, haha, but I doubt you're selling them, unfortunately :) Do you have any new Stacie doll maybe?

      Delete
    3. jewel snake - Oops I did miss this message. LOL! Nope I don't have cheerleader Ken. I don't have the new Stacie for sale either. I only have the very old Stacie. Are you not able to buy Stacie there? If you want, I can get her from the store for you and ship it to you. They run about $9 retail.

    4. Thank you so much, that would be awesome! Here I can only buy those big, expensive sets with things I don't need, while I want a doll only.

  6. Hello from Spain: awesome Jewel Essence Collection Bob Mackie. She got some fabulous dresses. I really like Ken Harley Davidson. My problem is that I think the shipping costs to Spain are very high. Keep in touch

    1. Marta - I didn't realize how pretty the dresses were. When I put the dolls in the cabinet 11 years ago, I rarely looked at them again. I ship first class international all the time. It used to be fairly inexpensive at about $8, but they just increased the prices earlier this year, so it's now about $13.

    1. Grandmommy - That was the one that caused me to pause first. Then I thought the emerald one would look really nice on one of my AA ladies.

  8. The one with the black and white dress is my favorite! But my collection is bursting at the seems. By the way, I am finally starting a blog, but have not posted anything yet, I plan to do stories, but I must get organized first. I think my first posts with be to introduce some of the families we have created (my daughter is in on it with me)

    Can't wait for the next installment from Morristown! Maybe Chandra will have her baby soon?

    1. Phyllis - Isn't that black and white dress fierce? Congrats on finally starting your blog. I'm looking forward to your stories. That's great that your daughter is doing it with you.

      You almost gave me a heart attach when you said Chandra was having a baby. You mean Kendra! Chandra bet not be pregnant.
