Barbie pauper Erica doll for £64!!!

I can't believe this but I've been searching for one of these since Christmas, to go with the Princess Anneliese doll(half price EVERWHERE!!), and I've been tracking one on eBay. It sold yesterday for £64! I wish I'd bought a truck load when I saw it at full price in Woolies before Christmas!!

barbie pauper doll? the mind boggles
is she emaciated, dirty and wearing a sack?

What twit paid £64 for a doll? Some people are completely MAD. On the other hand, if it makes you happy ........

God no, she looks as gorgeous as ever (if you like that sort of thing!)just wearing a blue dress instead of pink!

Do they deliberately restrict manufacture of one of the dolls in order to inflate prices? Not that I'm cynical or anything.

Wouldn't surprise me! no shops have had anymore since Christmas! Perhaps someone on the Mattel production line pressed the pink button loads of times instead of the blue one!!

Maybe they had the pink obsessive in charge of the production line too often.
