Or just snatch her up with the BUY-IT-NOW option I have provided!   PLEASE NOTE: Due to some unscrupulous eBay sellers, I am now forced to place my name on all of my photos. These scammers have stolen my photos and descriptions and attempt to sell my dolls to unsuspecting buyers for a fraction of their actual price and then never deliver the merchandise because they simply do not have it in their possession. If you suspect a scam auction with one of my dolls, please contact me directly at :   Gemdolls@aol.com or Libradolls@aol.com 718-859-0901 If you see a deal that is too good to be true, it probably isn’t true. One way to know for certain if an item is in someone’s possession is to request a photo of an obscure area on the item. Usually if the doll is dressed, ask to see a photo of the body of the doll. A scammer will not likely have these photos and be unable to accommodate you. Another really RED FLAG is a 0 or very low feedback rating. Watch out for that.   Shipping, Handling and Insurance in the continental USA by UPS Ground Service will be $35.  Shipping to the European Union, Japan and Australia will be $60.  All other shipping locations please provide address for adjusted shipping cost.                                                               ATTENTION!
