How could I not take advantage of the 25% off plus free shipping deal?! That's a good £26 saving! 
So Misty hopped her way into my cart, I had a bit of a toss up of who to get, it was either gonna be her or Stellar, and I had more of a solid idea of what I want Misty to look like so I went for it Very Happy

awesome! I was already gonna order today, so the deal makes it super serendipitous. 
I already ordered June this morning after noticing the deal, she's been prepped for dispatch already (come ooon girl, get here tomorrow please!) but i'm now umming and ahhing. I know I want to order Cass, he was who I was supposed to be ordering but i'm agonising over his face. But... i have almost enough to buy two dolls... *cough cough* and the temptation is pretty great.

also tempted to order those gift cards argos failed to provide, it actually works out a little cheaper too because no shipping cost. So I might order Cass and two gift cards for use next month (Anniversary present heh)

Jen said they had more mfy dolls due to go up too, oh dear. I think i'll have to wait and see what they have, because i'm weak... so weak hahahaha.

Oh how wonderful, I can almost feel the excitement building.

Great special on and I am sooo tempted as well, but supposed to be cutting back on my dolls and stuff in general!

I am too haha, I literally just listed all the dolls I've had in storage up on eBay from my phone in lots to get rid of them, haha.  If I can make £52 to cover the cost of misty I'll be happy, it's annoying that I paid way more than that for them but oh well, I guess if I listed them separately and sorted out their messed up hair etc I may get a lot more but I just don't have the time.

hahah I know that feeling man. I'm thinking I should just get huuuge piles of dolls and be all "have at it" because listing individually is such a pain and takes so long. You should get a good chunk for a few of those bundles though. If I had the cash i'd totally buy that clone head but then i'd have to find a body for her and all that. She's awesome though, why you selling her?

But man, here's hoping you get a repeat of the petra/action girl prices huh? hahaha.

Hah I doubt I'd get that! I'm getting rid because I've totally gone off Mh, and I can't be bothered to reroot or repaint her.  Too much effort haha! Well if she doesnt sell she's yours for the cost of shipping hahah

Heh, i'm sure that bundle will sell.

I know what you mean about MH though, i'm getting less and less interested. I think it's Mattel's steady decline into MGA territory. Awful boxes, crappy hair, lacking accessories and general cheapification and missed opportunities coupled with stupendous prices. It's like.. you know what, £22 is too much for a doll with bald spots and eye wonk.

Exactly! How can you justify it? They always go on sale so if there's a particular one I want, I just wait for that.  I'm selling off all of my MH, apart from the boys, scarahs and twylas mind you that doesn't leave many left.  Gonna sell them properly though, with proper listings etc

Awesome. I can't bring myself to sell off just yet, but i'm def slowing down the buying of them. Only two of the new releases really make me at all go "ooo want" and the rest are either "ew no" or "mmm nah." lol. Ahh well, more money for MAKIES!

Makie 11 arrived today <_< Juniper the LE one. She was so cheap, how could I resist? She's cute too.

Now i'm agonising over who to make real and whether I can justify two at once. Oh dear oh dear.

Misty's gone to print, which is a lot quicker than last time Surprised the email says she'll ship about one week from now meaning she may arrive sooner than the 2 week deadline, yay!

hahah I know right Howll? I'm scraping together what I can. I should have enough by the first, and if ebay sales this week go well, that'll help toward stuff. But argh... I was like £15 short being able to order a second doll this month, it's been agony. more days though, and I should have enough.

At least it's motivation to clear stuff out right? lol.

SWEET! well done! Big bundles seem to sell for decent money actually, people go a bit mental trying to win the ONE thing they want in the bundle haha.

You're a lovely brother buying your sister a dolly, sibling kudos will reward you in the future i'm sure.

Wow, well done!  Shame you couldn't get one for you, but great that you've cleared some space and made some money - or covered costs anyway!   I need to do this!
