Does anybody know the name of this Barbie?
Thank you everyone. I have determined that this Barbie is from the late 80s. You guys were so much help!
Here are the questions asked by community members. Read on to see the answers provided by the ThriftyFun community.
I have 2 Holiday Barbie dolls both in gold gowns from 2000. One is white & 1 is African American, both are very pretty and still in their original boxes.
What would the estimated value be for each or for the two?
People are asking around $25 to $80 for each one of the dolls. So you are looking at $50 to $160 or so for the set.

This is a Barbie doll from 1958. If it were in the box it would be worth a lot more. A similar doll on eBay is asking $88. www.ebay.com/
If I were you I would check on Ebay to see if you can find your doll listed. Then I would just watch the auction to see how much it sells for. I am sure you could purchase a special toy collectors book that would provide you with values. The thing with thinking about selling it on Ebay is that you have access to interested people all over the world.
I have this same exact Barbie. About 5 yrs ago ones like her went
for about $800 or more on Ebay. Now they go for less. But that doesn't
necessarily mean they are worth less (in my opinion) it may just mean with less jobs/money these days that there are fewer bidders.
there is one on ebay now that 4 people are watching listed at almost 500 but WITH clothes. is it just the doll? www.ebay.com/
It should be about 200 dollars. I read someone else's response and it says you should sell it on ebay but I think you should sell it somewhere else for more money. I think it would be a good choice to sell it on Antique rode show which you can google and find there website.
I have over 100 collectible Barbies in their original boxes- never been opened. They are absolutely stunning. Many are complete series sets. They are part of an estate. Mint condition. I posted a couple. How do I determine approximate value and what's the best way to sell?
I'm looking for information on the different Barbie dolls. I was just wondering if there was a place you could find the year and names of the individual dolls even if they don't have the clothes they came in. Any suggestions?

Check out C.I.B. (Collector's Information Bureau). They require registration online but libraries often have their books in the reference section.
Personally I would call Mattel themselves. They must have or know where to find the information you're seeking.
888-7-MATTEL
Or contact them at this link
Any collectors' site should have info, or simply search for "collector Barbies" or a similar phrase via your fave search engine.
btw, I had to make even this one small contribution because you're from my mom's birthplace, God rest her soul. Best to you in your search.
How do I find the value of a Barbie that's more than 10 years old and unopened. Can someone help me out?
I just picked up some Barbie accessories. One is a tiny little ashtray with a cigarette. All the little accessories are in separate little cello papers.
I was wondering if this is how they used to be packaged?
