davidd’s A DOLL A DAY 2022

[davidd]

Wow, that’s a crazy price. She is an interesting looking character.

It was such a crazy price that I felt compelled to offer my not-mint-in-box example on eBay. To my surprise, it sold for $145 USD... in under fifteen minutes!

But... I had two of them, you see!   So I could sell one and keep one and be money ahead!

However... $145, and sold in fifteen minutes? I obviously under-priced the poor little thing. So I listed the second one, at $195.

That one took an hour to sell.  

I guess Novi Stars are a hot market right now -- depending on which ones you have.

I might miss her a little bit, because, y'know, a three-eyed alien skeleton butterfly creature. However, she's only been out of the storage tub maybe twice in nine years, and I'd nearly forgotten I had her, and Novi Stars hair is a frizzy PITA to deal with. I'm hoping the Novis are going to appreciative homes, and now I'll have a little bit of "hobby money" to play with.

Plus, it saved Pullip Steampunk Zappa from going on the auction block.

I was just reading about a black hole and then along comes a pic of a doll from some other galaxy.

Oh, that black hole at the center of the galaxy that was recently imaged? I was reading about that, too! Pretty cool!

Here in North America we should be able to see a total lunar eclipse on Sunday night, cloud cover permitting. Not as cool as a black hole, perhaps, but it should be interesting.

13 May - Novi Stars Ina Ferna

More Novi Stars. Ina's head lights up with a "flame" effect! It still works, too, after eight or nine years in storage!

Are the Ina Ferna twins in danger of heading to eBay? Well... yes. Being relatively common Novi Stars, however, they do not command nearly the price of Vera Tabray, so they will be offered in a lot comprised of twelve Novi Stars dolls in total. I'll be keeping a few Novi Stars, but I have far more than I need, and they have been ignored for years, so it is time to move them along; especially if so doing can fund other things more in alignment with my current interests.
