Google just recommended this article on reborn dolls in my news feed, thought it was interesting, plus has pics of reborns website at the top

Thanks for sharing- its a nice feature. An article that isn’t sensationalism or clickbait type of poking fun/extremism. I think it was informative and positive about the art & collecting/hobby.
Pixie mommy’s channel recently had a video about why people enjoy reborns (whether you like her content or not, she does have a large number of people who view her channel-) and i thought she did well too

Ikr? All I could figure they were talking about was a really rare silicone

Prototype silicon, like LouLou maybe?
While the whole article has positive vibe, some places where funny to me, like cost inflated by baby sent or laundry detergent - those are the cheapest additions that you can imaging and I avoid those at any cost. And not all reborns are rooted with human hair. I don’t remember already what else, but at least it provided some education to the readers who never heard of reborns

Yes, I believe it was an overall positive article, just not exactly well informed on the details

Oh wow
Was that one silicone? The only vinyls I can think of that topped $10,000 were those by Tinkerbell Nursery way back when I started in 2010. @kareninflorida Do you remember?

I think there was a silicone reborn that sold on Ebay for $22,000 several years ago. Artist Selena Saxton, or Romie Strydom maybe.
UPDATE:
Google shows this from 2010

If I remember correctly, that first month she sold her silicones on eBay, she brought in $110,000.
Of course, my husband was telling me to get the clay out.
