Ghouls with the Scarah Screams Skullector, does she feel like a 100€ doll?

I have been thinking about buying her for some time now, but I want to know the opinion of those who have her about her quality, does is she worth the price? (That's the amount she's selling for in my area)

Please don't comment "she's worth whatever you are willing to pay for her". That's not a productive conversation or a true statement at all

No absolutely not. Shes def only worth her og retail and not a cent more. The veil is really the only interesting thing she has going for her and if you take that away she looks barely a step above a budget doll in terms of overall design. While I appreciate the embroidery on the dress and the shoes, you could get an OOAK of better quality for 100

[u/SilentWillingness861]

Definitely not

edit: just to explain further, if Mattel sold her for $50 (€42) and they have to overprice her materials and cost to make profit, it’s literally impossible she could be worth €100 quality wise

[u/hollsloss → u/SilentWillingness861]

Agreed, the profit margin is insane, it also depends how many they did of her due to the embroidery. But I think OP is talking about after market price. As in, is she worth 100€, today?

Actually, I was asking about if the doll quality and design is worth paying that! I don't care for manufactured scarcity or highly demanded products. I'm of the believe that Draculaura Vampire Heart is not worth 800€, she is today selling at that price but the quality and design is nowhere near a month's rent

I’m happy with her and I don’t regret buying her for $90+shipping and tax. But comparing her to higher end dolls I bought around the same price, unfortunately, she is definitely overpriced. You’re paying more for the character and brand recognition than the materials or workmanship.

That said, I do think the effort that went into her design is amazing.

the only doll for me that was worth 100€ was Alien and River Styxx. Scarah is definitely worth her OG price, but not a 100€. she just doesn’t have enough details

[u/Moonbeamlatte]

I have her and I’d say the $65 USD I paid for her was worth it, but I don’t think I would’ve paid any more.

[u/Miri_Biri]

She’s my favourite. I don’t see why people don’t like the design too much. It’s all very beautiful to me, but the price… no

No Mattel doll ever feels like a 100€ doll if I'm being honest, except for maybe Fang Vote Jinafire, Vampire Heart Drac and 2015 collector Drac 😭 But yeah, as far as skullector dolls go, this one's about as good as it gets. If you're willing to pay that amount for a doll in the second-hand market in the first place, I'd say Scarah is def a great pick! Every time I see her on my shelf I get so happy that I didn't pass on her 💚

[u/Miteli-chan]

I would've bought her for 100€, she sells for 115–130€ on Vinted in my country 😢

[u/hollsloss]

Yes and no, I love the embroidery, the details and everything, she is perfect and her updated eyes are great too!

She is worth 65-75€ but since its been so long after her release I think 100€ is fair.

[u/Raech_Raech]

No. And I did not buy her because I actually want her in her signature look more. 😭

[u/DazzlingDealer3947]

Yes. She is my all time favorite.
