right now the doll market is slow people are busy spending money on vacations and getting ready to go back to school

The market has been slow. Where do you have her listed?

flymetotheisle · July 20, 2015, 3:27am

i have her listed on Facebook, Reborns,Com, and kijiji locally…!!..I think she’s quite nice and usually I tend to be my worst critic…just redid my Chanel’s hair for the 3rd time…!!

She’s very pretty. And I love her dress. It looks like one of Susie’s from Dream Babywear.

Everyone is buying back to school stuff. After school starts, they will start buying for Christmas.

Thanks for the encouraging words ladies…!!..The dress and bonnet are from England…Susie rings a bell…!!

heartstringsnursery · July 20, 2015, 3:57am

I buy a lot of dresses from her. Love her work!

Don’t feel bad… My Corbin has been listed for weeks and weeks now without anything except low-ball offers. One offer was for $35!! He is listed on Ebay and Reborns.com. He is so much cuter in person than he is in his pictures…but nobody wants him right now. I was going to try dressing him as a girl and re-doing his pictures, but I have not had time.

Thanks for sharing…I know that there are many poorly made low priced reborns on eBay right now…and so many kits from China…going for very little…guessing then that this is also factoring in to the reason why your Corbin and my Crystal aren’t selling…!!

Yea I was just scrolling through some reborns on eBay and I must say not very many had any bids. And most are just not very well done it seems.

I am trying to get Celeste finished bow for the contest…but she is a Christmas gift.

She’s really cute but she kind of blends in with the background. Try using a darker one and turning her face toward the camera. I’m not seeing her on reborns.com.

flymetotheisle · July 20, 2015, 5:04am

Yes, planning on doing that tomorrow…She is on Reborns.Com…Mammy and Pappy’s Little Luvs…!!

jeanhai · July 20, 2015, 5:15am

I’m still not seeing her. I looked in Just Born and BBies For Adoption. I do see her in your Nursery.

jeanhai · July 20, 2015, 1:21pm

Okay. Now I see her.

Sometimes it just takes awhile for whatever reason. I just sold my reborn yesterday that I have had listed on and off for the last 3 months. It just takes the right person that loves the reborn. I thought I had her sold once before, but when I emailed the buyer she said she must have been half asleep when she ordered. Hang in there.

Try to take close ups of her features like hands, feet and face. Sometimes not being able to see those details will turn off a buyer. She is cute though. Its that time of year where sales are slow. Keep trying. She will find a mommy eventually.

Corholl · July 21, 2015, 2:47am

She is just adorable. Love the outfit. Just a thought maybe putting her on a darker blanket that makes her skin color and outfit pop a little more. It hopefully will show off all her beautiful features. It does sound like sales have been slow for everyone.

Yes, a dark background does seem to make her really pop…!!
