Or it could be either, depending on how you look at it. <br /><br />@Muff Me too, that's why I feel thoil describes my wishlist dolls better than grail.<br /><br />@IHime It really does!

I just...I guess one of the dolls I want is a thoil. I just saw one on eBay a month or so ago that went for $188. Nope, not paying that much. It's still possible I might find one at a better price someday.<br /><br />Other than that, getting the dolls I want is largely a matter of time. Of course, most of the dolls I want are inexpensive, but I am also looking at a couple of the Wilde Imagination Miette dolls, which are about $180. I saw them at the Tonner convention "in the vinyl" and decided I wanted to add them to my collection.Barb the Evil Geniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04635449477605703171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5372907439231637589.post-38407864549453557872016-06-24T00:54:37.508+02:002016-06-24T00:54:37.508+02:00@jSarie That's why I like the word: it perfect...@jSarie That's why I like the word: it perfectly captures that feeling I think we've all had about spending money on dolls. <br /><br />@BlackKitty I feel the same about Basics Ken, except I suspect they were closer to $100 around here when they were released, which I guess means they... started out as thoil dolls? Man, this got complicated!<br /><br />@Phyllis I'm glad you said it.

Although lately, I have been buying lots of dolls even though they are not grails. Curses, "thoiled" again!

But a Basics Ken for example, I like that guy a lot, but no way I'm paying 100+$ for something that was originally released for 10-20$!BlackKittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14014093330317682849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5372907439231637589.post-22708596949941372492016-06-23T22:31:03.135+02:002016-06-23T22:31:03.135+02:00I managed to snag my two grails, so now they'r...I managed to snag my two grails, so now they're all thoils. I was actually sitting here right now thinking "That's a nice doll, but I don't know if I want to pay $XYZ for her..." when this popped up in my blog roll, so the timing is perfect! Now I have a word for this situation! ;)jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.com
