    Desperate Mother

    Hello! My daughter wants a baby annabell cot for Christmas - I can't find a second hand one on ebay that isn't in deepest darkest Englandshire and therefore is going to cost a fortune to post - defeating the purpose of getting a second hand one. Does anyone out there have a big girl who doesn't want her Baby Annabell Cot anymore and would be willing to sell it on for a reasonable price.

    HOnestly, the price they charge just cost they stuck a Baby Annabell sticker on something - it's a disgrace - Bah Humbug!

    Why not just get a doll's cot that will fit and call it a "designer" cot? every Annabell will have one of those - only yours will have one of these.
    If you're concerned about it not being that special, paint it or add some glitter or stencil her name on it...

    {Not that I would ever resort to such tricks with my kids }
