Comments on: Introducing “Going Home Barbie” http://easternjourney.com/2009/11/introducing-going-home-barbie/ Shorel, Sandra, Schäfer, Sianna and Selah living life in China Tue, 22 May 2012 14:55:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Chris http://easternjourney.com/2009/11/introducing-going-home-barbie/comment-page-1/#comment-6872 Chris Wed, 15 Feb 2012 19:02:25 +0000 http://easternjourney.com/?p=4258#comment-6872 People seem to get so frantic on this issue. If you want one, pick one up on ebay. Even the expensive sales will cost you less than an American doll. If you don't want to pay that, you can buy an actual Chinese doll for around $15. The idea that people have filed a petition with Mattel to make them publicly available is just odd, given how easy they are to get. A Chinese adoption is north of $30,000, what's $75 more? My daughter has one, but never plays with it. People seem to get so frantic on this issue. If you want one, pick one up on ebay. Even the expensive sales will cost you less than an American doll.

We did not adopt from China but visited White Swan when friends were adopting and were given one. Maybe I will make some money and sell it on ebay. I have one.
