Disney Designer Dolls

[piraterunner]

I started on ebay but they make you go thru paypal if you paid with them. it's all the same i guess. Good Luck trying to get some of the other princesses. I haven't decided yet how many of the remaining 5 girls.

I hope she turns up! I am sending some of my pixie dust your way... I just got an email from Disney saying that I made it to the second round for their momspanel. Can't believe it 20,000 applicants. I have to submit a 60 second video and answer another round of questions. I am so nervous!

For anyone interested in purchasing off of ebay, I just saw a Buy It Now Snow White doll for under $140 with economy shipping. It was at the bottom of the BIN list - more than 20 something days out. It's a little cheaper than the one I bought today. I was watching this one as it didn't sell at a higher price either late last night or earlier today. I've been looking at so many I cannot remember, but I remember the print in the ebay ad to know it was one that didn't sell earlier. $140 with or without shipping is about what I saw many going for today in the auctions.

Hope this helps someone.

Wow thats awesome, GOOD LUCK!!! When I was planning mine and dh's first trip to Disney a few years ago, the Mom's Panel was a lifesaver to me. So much info for a Disney vacation planning newbie. This last trip was when I found the DisBoards, so I used this site more for that trip.

FYI, more dolls may show up on Ebay in the next few weeks.

We have guests who want to return them, because they wanted the entire set or none at all. They are not returnable. These guests may sell them at a reasonable price on Ebay, because they are not really Ebayers normally.

Good luck all for next week.

I dont want to return the one I have, but I will admit that I kinda feel that way now. With all this time between doll releases (and with the iPhone 4S requiring me to sit in a 4hr line on the 14th) then I'm really dreading the hassle of waiting in line on the 17th or staying up all night on the 18th only to be disappointed.

I visited my Disney Store today and they took down all the display designer princess dolls. They also moved the mugs, journals, etc to a less visible part of the store. They had a rapunzel journal and a couple ariel journals left though. It's kind of sad the way it seems they are trying to make the hype die down. They treated it as such a big deal before. Oh well, hopefully it gives us a better chance of getting our desired dolls.

Well, I would be VERY interested. Definitely send the information my way. There are 3 princesses in particular that are my favorites Regretfully I got in this game a little too late to get my three favorites from the series. So, keep us posted!

D-Days one week away! Is everyone ready!?

Well, I broke down and went over to the dark side. Yup, I purchased a Snow White on e-bay Saturday. Hopefully, with the express FedEx shipping it'll be here by Friday for my Wife's B-day.

Also, I have decided that I am not even going to bother going to a Dis Store on Monday 10/17 and I will just be trying my luck online. Dis Store should be announcing the released time for 10/18 sometime this week.

I was thinking of doing both the Store and Online but changed my mind. Called the Disnet Store that I like to go to as that one was the one I was going to go to on 10/17. It's 90 mins away. Had a nice conversation with the Mgr at that store. She was very sweet. Plain and simple, here was the deal for that store.

1. She had no idea how many of each they were getting. Based on prior #'s they it be anywhere from 1 - 12. But she said at most 10 and that's pushing it. They only got 4 Mulans and maybe 6 Snow White.

2. The mall security will only start letting people line up at one mall entrance at 6am. If you are there and try to line up before 6am, you will be asked to leave. If you do not leave, the police will be called.

3. They will be handing out cards at that one mall entrance prior to the doors opening at 8am. They will be handing out cards for how many dolls they have. That's it.

4. She reinforced what has been discussed many times here on the Dis, the communication between online and stores is non exsistant. Period.

The MGR was very nice and up front. She said the demand is there and wished me luck, but they have no idea how many they would get and the possibility to get the dolls was slim.

The stores already have the dolls in stock they have had them for a while according to the store manager I talked to when I was on vacation last week in TX. So they know exactly how many they have of each doll. With approx 150 stores selling them, each store as we have seen before doesn't get that many so with a LE4000 on 3 of the dolls there will even be less of that doll and probably similar qtys of what they got of Snow White since that one was also LE 6,000 which 2 of the dolls are.

I wish those trying to pick up a doll at a store the best of luck. It is going to be crazy. The MGR I spoke to stated that they don't know how many that they will have, and even when they do, they are not allowed to tell anyone how many they have. So maybe they did have their stock, just can't say how many them have of each.

Yeah, I think I saw this one. It was $150 BIN + $9ish shipping. It's been on e-bay a few days. I sent the seller a note to confirm the # of the doll as it wasn't in the listing. He never got back to be so I passed. I ended up getting a Snow White Saturday on E-bay for a little more, but this one had express shipping via FedEx. The seller shipped it this morning and sent me a note w/ the tracking # to confirm.

It seems like what I have been thinking may be starting to happen. Folks are losing interest or forgetting about the dolls. Some will start selling theirs off because they won't be able to get the set. Some just aren't going to bother anymore because of teh hassel etc. Let's hope that 10/18 online won't be too bad...

Yeah they aren't allowed to tell how many of the dolls they have in the store room. However at the store I visited they had the designer bags on the shelf behind the counter. I asked if I could have one bag since I bought all my dolls online and they didn't come with them. Anyway the manger said that was their inventory for the upcoming dolls and they had the same # of bags as what they had dolls, no extras. So while you couldn't determine how many of each doll they had you get a sense overall of how many of the 5 and it wasn't many. To me it looked like they had about 50 bags.

Are all of you who are planning on going to the disney store on the 17th hoping to get all 5 on the spot? I'm only buying Rapunzel, so I'm just curious. Haha seems a bit crazy to wait for so long just for one of them, but I want to anyway.

If I were to go, which I highly doubt I will do at this point, I would definitely be shooting for all 5.

I haven't decided yet. I really want Pocahontas and I am getting Rapunzel for someone who can't make it to the store. I might buy the other 3 just to keep them out of the hands of ebay sharks and try and trade for the Mulan I never got.
