I'd like to re-home four of my larger Kaye Wiggs dolls. They are all older, closed editions. I much prefer the newer, smaller versions, so these beauties have been lingering in the bottom of my display case for years now.
The thing is, it makes me very nervous to sell older, used dolls. People are very picky about the condition of their dolls, and rightly so, but I don't want to end up at the losing end of a Paypal dispute. All four were originally purchased to be costume models, so have seen a lot of action. They all have body blushing, manicures and pedicures, but have developed shiny spots and a few scuffs over the years. My question is this; would buyers be interested in an older, used doll that has some wear, for a lower price (less than I paid for them brand new)? Or do I need to have them refreshed, and then put up for sale for a considerably higher price?
There's my Fair Human Layla, with faceup, body blushing, and manicure by Charie Wilson....

I'm just curious to know people's opinions, before I go to the added trouble and expense to have them all refreshed.
