hi , welcome :)

Hello and welcome to our family forum.
What size baby are you looking for? Also, can you post a link to the AD doll you are looking at (not a pic, just a link please). I may be able to help you out. And can you post a link to your hat/covers here too so I know what to look for in a baby? Do you want smiling, happy, neutral, newborn, older (3-6 mos)? Do you want a baby with rooted hair or a wig?

As Susan said, it is possible to add a belly/back plate to a doll. It would have to be painted to match as close as possible. With diaper covers I'm thinking you would want a baby with full legs to show the covers off well. I'm sure there is something we can work out. Not only am I a reborner myself but also a reborn teacher. I am also a Secrist/AVDW doll dealer. You get me the details and I'll help you find something you like and try to stay within your budget :D

Have you tried putting them on Etsy? It's not an auction, has minimal fees, and is much more comfortable than ebay. Thing I like about Etsy is that all the stuff is hand made. :D

I have not tried Etsy yet. I have thought about it but I just havent done it. If the fees are better there I may just set one up. I have only sold 2 things so far on Ebay.

I head several women say Etsy is hard to get sells, but it seems Ebay is hard too. I sit and make soo many hats and dresses and have a huge pile of stuff lol. Hoping to sell some of it.

I'm also hoping to buy a beautiful baby doll to model my stuff. But haven't had any luck finding one, or someone to work with me yet.

Etsy's fees are very minimal. More people coming/looking on there all the time. It costs just 20 cents per item to list. So I listed 4 doll kits and it cost me 80 cents. lol

I didn't get a reply back from the last pm I sent you. Did you get it?

Thank you so much!!

Cazzy, I didn't see anything on there that said it was "American" for selling. You may want to contact them to ask. I think it's open to anyone in the world. Does anyone else know for sure?
