Ahead of the Barbie movie being released on July 21, new research has revealed the Barbie dolls that collectors and unknowing owners alike could fetch almost £8,000 for. Debt specialist Carrington Dean used eBay purchasing data to reveal how much Barbie dolls have been auctioned for over the past six months.
The Gallery Opening Barbie Doll took the top spot, with collectors paying up to £7,800 for the 2010 doll. Barbie’s boyfriend remains in her shadow even at auction, with the most expensive Ken doll to be sold in the last six months fetching a mere £282.72.
Other owners of the Barbie memorabilia could also be sitting on a small fortune. The Life Ball Barbie (1999) and City Smart Barbie (2003) recently sold for £3,150 and £2,000 respectively.
