Really? More often times than not, I see this type of reborn going anywhere from 350.00 to $600.00, which I find ridiculous.

Thank you for your response.

I think a lot depends on who the artist is. For someone who is say a prototype artist, the price you are quoting would not be that high. Considering some of the babies they sell on ebay may go in the thousands. But I am sure there are ladies on here who could do a nice job in the lower end of the prices you quoted.

I think it would depend on the quality of the materials and paint job, too :)

Precisely!! To be fair, BB kits are so much harder to paint, in my opinion. It definitely takes me more hours to complete them. So it really just depends on a lot of factors.

Do a bigger Realborn or any of the BB bigger kits or any other kit with rooted hair and then come back and tell me it is ridiculous. People have no idea how many hours upon hours it takes to do a reborn of quality. :banghead:
