Doll Repair FAQ
How much will it cost to repair my doll or bear?
I repair all types of dolls and collectibles, ranging from attaching a limb, to completely restoring an antique doll. The cost can range from $5 to $500. Quotes without a picture are difficult, so exact estimates can only be given after looking at several pictures of the doll or seeing it in person.
How long will it take?
Due to backlogs, plan on most repairs to take several weeks to complete. A simple repair can be sometimes completed while you wait, especially in the case of a childhood toy that they can not be without.
Is my doll worth fixing?
The majority of dolls and bears that are repaired are brought in for sentimental reasons. Even if the doll has little or no monetary value, many people chose to have it repaired because it has a special memory or has been in their family for generations. It seldom pays to have a doll repaired so that it can be sold again.
How much is my doll worth?
The values of a doll can not be estimated without seeing it in person. Values depend on condition, clothes, year of manufacture, rarity, and what the market will bear. Most current doll prices are determined by doing comparisons with completed sales on EBAY.
Will you buy my doll?
Yes, I do purchase dolls. Please ask for an estimate if you are wishing to sell a doll, toy, or collectible.
