I'm based in Hong Kong. I've got a bunch of Barbie dolls, brand new in box from early to late 2000s. Some of them have issues inside the boxes such as plastic discolouration (turning yellow with age), white specks (glue peeling?) and a bit of mould on the plastic but not on the dolls themselves.
Specific models include the Barbie Island Princess Carriage (L6850), Barbie 1,2,3, Checkup! (M6746) and a bunch of Disney Princess with Horses ones (N5390, for one example).
Is this something collectors would be interested in, despite the boxes being slightly dinged and the plastic disintegrating? In some cases the toys have fallen out of their original location in the box, and are on the floor of the box.
Just curious to know if there's a market and if it's worth putting my items on eBay! I'm new to this and inherited these items, so a bit lost as to where to begin.
Any advice would be appreciated. Cheers!
