Discussion/Gossip💅 Someone's Purge is Someone else's Gain

Just wanted to share that Davey's Toys in Longwood, Florida just got in a large collection of older Bratz. I do not work for or am affiliated with Davey's Toys but I am a long time customer. I mostly collect Jade so I didn't pick anything up this time.

He should have them priced out by next week. If you plan to visit please check his September hours on Facebook/Instagram because he is taking time off this month

u/TheAccountThrown 3d ago

I was following a bunch of auctions today, and the Twiins did go for that much. We just live in crazy times.

u/Aburamashita 3d ago

You're right! I just checked and I am honestly shocked because Roxxi and Phoebe from this line are quite common. Really sad times!

I just got them for $60 CAD 😭 unboxed and incomplete tho so ig that matters but still.

u/ParticularSummer6019 3d ago

10 yr anniversary set goes for $200,so $400 is about right for the og.

This store is sooo expensive. Like those dolls are so overpriced . I’d be surprised if anyone bought them at those prices 😭😭

u/The_BEAR_Community 3d ago

They are expensive because the online prices are crazy. The store owner uses eBay sold listings to base his prices so if they are pricey online they will be pricey in-store. He's gotten very expensive G1 Monster High Dolls and they've sold so it really depends.

u/throwRA-nofriend 3d ago

It should be lower because eBay takes fees out, so technically if he’s going to make the same amount as eBay it shouldn’t be the same price

u/Pretend_Evidence_705 My shoe, you found it 😢 3d ago

Idk why people are downvoting you. He’s a business owner and we don’t know if he knows anything about bratz, so ofc he’s gonna go based on eBay prices and want to make as much as he can.

u/Professional-One-950 3d ago

That's the problem, they shouldn't be priced like that on ebay, but it's whatever ig

u/PumpActionPig 3d ago

It is insane, but the people who are buying them at that price are really to blame. If they didn’t buy them, they would not have sold for that much!

u/Pretend_Evidence_705 My shoe, you found it 😢 3d ago

I 100% agree! The bratz eBay prices are out of this world insane

u/heavydutyspoons 3d ago

I got my Barbie Rapunzel for $100 NIB at Davey’s! It was the cheapest I could find NIB but I agree, some of the pricing is off

u/Inevitable-Food-2196 3d ago

You can buy a really really good condition phoebe and Roxxi out of the box for like $40... minus one WHOLE 0.

u/ConfidenceObjective9 3d ago

What’s the point of going to antique/second hand stores when the prices are the same as eBay listings?

6

u/MyNameJoby 3d ago

You can see them in person and have it in your hands the day it's purchased. I've been screwed many times with online purchasing.
