Wow! I never thought to look through the doll bin! That is an awesome find! Did it have an American Girl tag? Clothes for these dolls do well too.

I've had great luck with American Girl doll clothing and accessories too! When you are at yard sales, pay attention to the doll clothing. American Girl clothing will have their own tags, so you know it is authentic.

We sold a swimsuit/scuba set with surfboard & goggles for over $50! (Paid $3).

American Girl also produces a line of girls clothing, which resell well too.

Happy hunting!

If you find the American Girl dolls that say "Pleasant Company" on the back of their neck, they're the older ones and are becoming rare to find now that they're outsourcing production of the dolls.
