So, you decided to start a collection on Stardoll...

It's hard to start your first collection from 0, especially now. It's best to start from something that isn't worth thousands of stardollars or even real money. Of course, it's you choice, but I would recommend to save your money and be patient. You can collect Tributes, later sell the clothes, make the profit, and buy a piece of rare LE. But if you want to get rare items fast, you should know one thing - it will definitely require real money, a lot of it. So think about it before doing.
 
 
I decided to collect tributes/other collectibles that are worth under or little bit up to 600 stardollars!
How can I find what I need?
 
First of all - good choice! Interest in tributes grows everyday, so it's a great opportunity to make double of what you paid in short time. Secondly - you can find most of what you're looking for in starbazzar, just be careful! Look for the best deal, because it's easy to overpay. If you can't find something, visit other members, ask if they're selling it.
 
 
I decided to collect old LE or other collectibles for over 600 stardollars!
How can I find something rare?
 
It won't be easy, but everything is possible, especially when you can spend real money. Possibility of finding something in starbazzar is very VERY low. Look for other members with rares, it will take some time and the success is not guaranteed, but there's no other way. Also, be careful, look for older members with references. If it's a new member, with no references, with closed guestbook, it might be a scammer.
 
 
Good luck, collectors!

Welcome to the paradise of Collectors

 
 
Almost three years passed since the last time I've wrote a post...and at the same time four -when I started blogging. Friend of mine offered me to 'express my writing abilities' in her blog. And I loved it. But it ended after almost a year, when the owner of the blog decided to make it a snobby place about 'couture and photoshoped dollies'... and, of course, there was no place for my satirical articles about Stardoll's elite and wannabes, so they kicked me out. Anyway, couture thing didn't work out , so I was asked to come back. Soon enough, I got bored, so I quit.
Talking about Stardoll - I joined this site back in 2006, which obviously suggests that I'm old.
After almost two years I started to collect DKNY, Hot Buys. In five years time trends of collectible clothes changed quite dramatically. For example - when I started to collect, people were searching for DKNY, first Hot Buys, Mary-Kate and Ashley Real Celeb clothes. Now it's all about Limited Edition. DKNY clothes are not so wanted, Hot Buys lost their value as soon as Stardoll let us sell our clothes for 5oo stardollars and MKA RC...well they're pretty much worthless now, cause they are not sell able any more (except long dresses).
And why I created this blog?
Because I have experience and because there isn't much of such Stardoll addicts like me left, I decided, that I want to help others to learn more about collectible items. Mainly, because I find most of the articles about rares quite shallow and lame. Statement, that '4th collection of LE was nice' doesn't say much to me, to be honest.  
So, hopefully, I will be able to tell you guys something interesting and useful.
 
 
Best of luck, Simone
