Possibly a Group Auction idea?
Just out of curiosity, what will you do if no one is interested in Wedding Rapunzel, Cinderella and Merida?
 
kinda a bit happy and sad seeing this thread..I am not the seller but I am bidding on this item already.. but all the dolls that I would want to keep are already spoken for, so I dont want to be in competition with you guys.. but at the same time I really want Gothel, Blonde Rapunzel and Alice
 
There are only 2 days left for the auction to conclude and there are still some unclaimed dolls, so please help us make our 1st GA successful
 

So if one were to assume that these would be our maximum bids, then the breakdown would be something along the lines of these in terms of the approximate percentage of each doll's value to the collective whole (not including shipping costs)?

Alice: 24%
Queen of Hearts: 14%
Mother Gothel: 14%
Belle: 12%
Tiana: 12%
Blonde Rapunzel: 9%
Wedding Rapunzel: 5%
Cinderella: 5%
Merida: 5%
 
I think the problem is that you are paying such a high price for shipping since you are paying the shipping cost to the seller then to the person that is in charge for shipping. From Belle down to Merida you can find deals on ebay that is less than the total price listed above, for example Belle 250 max bid + 49 will cost 300 bucks for her and on ebay she last sold for 260 and that's including shipping (She is also currently at $130 with 4 days left, and by my calculations she'll end at 240 or so). Even Mother Gothel she has sold for 290 free shipping the last month. I guess in order for the group auction to go well the total price should still be less than what one will pay on ebay for it to be worthwhile. That's my thoughts anyway.
 
Is there anyone local to me that has the shipping boxes the dolls come in? If I've got boxes that are the exact size of the doll, then it will make shipping cheaper.

Other than that, the seller told me shipping would be $105/9 = $11.67
cost the shipping service will charge me to pick up $30/9 = $3.33
EXACT SIZE BOX approx. $25
Total = $40

Without an exact size box, shipping is much more expensive.
 
Sorry to anyone who was interested, we were outbid in literally the last second of the auction.
 
I honestly wouldn't count your self out just yet, because there are times when people back out of paying for such high priced items, you might get a second chance offer, just saying keep an eye out on your messages and offers
