American girl dolls

[jockey]

I just can't drag myself of the AG website! I have purchased one for my DD and now I want Julie! Do any of you adults collect these dolls or am I just going crazy!

You guys are funny, I myself wanted to get one recently. I wanted to get Julie also (bc she represents my era) and also Felicity bc she is being dc'd. I really loved the older historic ones, Felicity I had gotten for nieces when they were little and now I want one. Also Samantha who is now gone. They do make little ones now which I was going to buy myself. Glad to know I'm not the only one!

Thanks I am glad to know I am not the only one too! My aunt is in Nyc in a few weeks I am going to have her pick me one up as the shipping costs to Ireland are expensive

The "My Disney Girl" dresses fit AG dolls fairly well. www.etsy.com is also a great place to find lots of Disney outfits.

Technically, Elizabeth is mine and Felicity is my daughters. A friend sent her to me last year after christmas so I would have a doll too In reality, Elizabeth lives in my Dds room along with Felicity, Lanie, and Ann (the Williamsburg Madam Alexander version of an AG doll that Santa brought the year before Felicity).

Yesterday I was handed the doll's Christmas lists. It tickled me that my DD had managed to do different writing for each of them.

(And I want Julie too! I *had* those clothes when I was growing up!)

Prices are always very high (inflated) for AG stuff this time of year. People are trying to get good deals for Christmas and are buying for those little girls who suddenly decided that they *have* to have a Samantha doll. Back in June I snagged a Samantha labeled as a regular AG with brown hair and eyes for $30.

The summer is usually the best time to find deals on ebay, but if you are really after something, you need to look often because you never know when someone will list it as a crazy good buy it now deal.

This is horrible but, when I bought my daughter her first AG one of the main reasons I got her Julie was because I loved all her accessories and wanted to play with them. My DD looks like Julie so that factored as well, but that tape recorder and record player! I had to have them. I think I was more excited than she was.

I love that website too. I have to just walk away though. My shoe budget would be adversely affected if I lingered there too long.

That is precious! Elizabeth is another one I want. I love that pink dress of hers.

I would like Julie too, but just can't justify the cost for something that will just sit around and need dusting. O' well.

Yes I had clothes like that too

I thought the prices would be higher nearer Christmas but I will keep checking back

I know what you mean, I keep thinking what I could buy if I did not have such a huge AG wish list

I will probably let me Dd play with Julie though not for sometime as she is only 2!!

Thanks for the note on Ebay. I will pass it along to my friend who REALLY wants the Kristen Doll.
Also why did they start retiring the dolls. I think that had to be one of the worst ideas ever!

I love Julie! I get the catalogues and it's so hard not to buy anything, but I know if I start buying AG things I'll be addicted. I'm a Barbie fanatic and that takes up too much money as it is. But I'm enjoying all the AG talk here!!

 

[poohfriend77]

I haven't bought any for myself, but I definitely lose my sense of reason over those darn dolls! I won't pay full price for a $17.99 dress for one of my DDs at Target... I wait for it to go on sale for $14.99. Yet I barely hesitated before buying the $34 ice skating outfit for a doll. My reasoning is that the doll won't outgrow the dress, whereas my DD will only wear it a few times this season.

I still have my Molly and Kirsten dolls (about about 200 outfits/accessories!) from when I was little. I avoid looking at the catalogs because I know it will make me want to buy stuff. I need to wait until I have daughters!
