I still have some facial trimming to do and a little airbrush shading. Then I will be putting it on ebay. They usually go from about $250 to $600 but there are some that I have seen go into the thousands!! I think that is way too much. There is a LOT of work that goes into them from designing the pattern to the sewing, jointing, wiring, stuffing, trimming, etc.. Of course the way the market is right now.. $250 is just barely covering costs...
I really want to watch your ebay auction, so if you aren't able to post the link here, please send me the link via pm. I saw one go for over $1,000 a few months ago - I hope yours does as well. What beautiful fantastic work. As soon as I get some extra $$ I'll be talking to you.
