I can't believe all the 1972 Kenner Blythe dolls right now! Looks like it's a good time to buy! I recall, when reading a book about Online Auctions, it stated not to put so many of your items on at the same time, because they will end at the same time and less people will compete for bids. More supply equals less demand, so it looks like the crazy prices may follow that, as well.

Many of us doll enthusiasts often wonder if spending so much on dolls is a wise investment. I look at it this way, heart value equals more to me than dollar value does. I also budget myself so that I don't suffer from buyers remorse. Another great tip is to shop around and check shipping rates too.

I have seen those pristine NRFB vintage beauties go as high as $5,000+ US! If you find a 1972 Kenner Blythe doll out of box and in good condition you could be looking at $800 - 1200 US.
