Friends, I believe my doll buying craze is over. After my last post, I only bought one more LOT of dolls. I know, I know, I was supposed to be done, but it wasn’t my fault. Remember the the group of dolls on Ebay I mentioned in my previous post that had no hands, were naked AND one doll had damaged legs?
