\link{http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5672674672&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1\this} has got to be a joke.

I cannot beleive someone would pay 11,000.00 for a doll

Blimey, when I think what I could do with that money....

NomDePlume · 18/03/2006 18:58

I suppose there are collectors out there with more money than sense and from what I've seen, these (scary) dolls are very collectible

Radley · 18/03/2006 18:58

I don't even think these kinds of dolls are particularly nice.

Jeez I though Misdee was crazy paying £30 for a doll!

NotActuallyAMum · 18/03/2006 19:00

Me neither Radley. Some collectors' dolls are quite nice. Not that I'd want one - but some of them do look nice - but these ones I think are awful

NomDePlume · 18/03/2006 19:00

They are really not to my taste

Radley · 18/03/2006 19:01

I think some are TOO realistic iykwim

But it really looks like a baby.

Not that I would want it, I hasten to add!!

But it's so realistic, I'm scared!!!

Radley · 18/03/2006 19:10

I agree, they do look like real babies and I think that that is one of the things that makes me not like them.

I would feel really unnerved sitting in the same room as one that looks so realistic but obviously doesn't move, make noises etc.

so much money though for a doll

Frenchgirl · 18/03/2006 19:17

FIL (RIP) bought us a set of 4 dolls very similar to these and they give me the creeps (only ever opened the first box, the other three are sealed!). If I ever get round to it I will sell them, can't believe some people are weird enough to want to buy them, let alone spend that kind of money on them....

Nbg · 18/03/2006 19:20

I'd love to know who actually buys these and what they do with them?

Frenchgirl · 18/03/2006 19:20

quite Nbg...

Nbg · 18/03/2006 19:22

Apart from frenchgirl who has briefly looked at hers Grin

Radley · 18/03/2006 19:22

I wonder how much it cost's to make them,.

it's hard to forget once you've seen one though

eeeeeewwwwwww

Frenchgirl · 18/03/2006 19:24

btw it's not mine, I consider it to be in transit until it finds another home

Nbg · 18/03/2006 19:24

lol Grin

Nbg · 18/03/2006 19:25

No I just have this awful image in my head of the person who has just spent that kind of cash on a doll.

Quite a sad and scary image at that.

Radley · 18/03/2006 19:26
