Buying a reborn Doll

Whilst beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and everyone has a different take on works of art, buying a reborn doll can be a costly experience. A good one often does not come cheap, as the artist has spent a long time making it, and bought lots of supplies and parts to make the doll.
Firstly, for those that dont know what a reborn doll is, its simply a doll that has been made more lifelike by a artist. Below you can see an example of before and after pics

One thing you can do, is to see if the seller is a member of any "guilds", these are groups of people who claim to only accept members with a high standard of work. Usually a guild will have more than one level of membership, ranging from a standard member, who is still learning the craft, to a full or registered/charter member who is qualified to display the logo on their auctions.
