Does taking a collector Barbie out of the box devalue it?
I got a “gold label” collector Barbie doll for Chirstmas. I would like to put her on display but her box isn’t like a typical display box. She comes with a small plastic stand. But I was curious if taking her out of her box devalues her any?
It normally doesnt devalue Collector dolls Especialy Gold Label dolls whitch are produced in quantities of no more than 25,000 pieces worldwide. They are worth money in or out of box, if you think you would get more enjoyment out of the doll if it is out of box then in, go for it. Gold label dolls are rare once they go out of production and mostly go up in value anyways. If you are looking to sell her within the next couple of years, it may be best to keep her in box. I collect not for value, but because I like Barbie and her beautifull huge wardrobe of clothes, besides it’s mostly playline (dolls for play) that devalue when deboxed.
If you do decide to open her, store the box in a safe place where it won’t get crushed or damaged, also keep everything she comes with; with her. If you lose any of it, it will most likely devalue her.
Just out of curiosity, what doll is it?
