    The first edition Bratz sell well. MY DD had a clear out last Christmas after confessing that she didn't really like them 5 years ago , let alone now! They weren't boxed but complete collections (like Winter Chloe etc...).
    I found these sold better nearer Christmas and were certainly sort after - not sure about this year - again the US market seems to be the pushing the prices up.
    Also Tamagochi early editions.

    I would be interested to know if there is anywhere else to sell these sort of toys now that Ebay have messed things up with the whole 'mandatory paypal' clause?

    AFAIK there aren't any specialist toy auctions. There are other general auction sites like Ebid or Tazbar but a lot of buyers there will still prefer sellers who use paypal and you also don't get the exposure that you get on ebay.

    How about a real auction? The fees can be horrendous , easily 25% of sale price but they do tend to work more in cash.

    My old sindy went off to Australia to a collector and my old barbie went to Canada. My 2 old teddies that I got when I was born ( I hated them they weren't cuddly) went to Australia. They were my highest selling items to date.:T
