Where to Buy Vintage Cabbage Patch Kids

Vintage Cabbage Patch Kids are some of the cutest and sought after dolls by collectors and regular folks trying to find a favorite childhood toy for their own children. Making their debut in the early '80s, Cabbage Patch Kids were a popular gift for young boys and girls who could name the dolls themselves, as well as order a birth certificate for their doll.

Since the original line was released and then discontinued, Cabbage Patch Kids have been revived by collectors and those looking for wholesome toys. An all new line of dolls has been created and released to meet some of the demand, but the vintage dolls are still a popular collectors piece.

My own Cabbage Patch Kid still has a spot of his own in my own room, I adopted him after my brother tied my own doll to his big wheel and took it for a spin around the block. Because my doll has been loved by myself and two younger sisters, that were allowed to babysit, I would never consider selling it. Still, I have looked into the value of my own cabbage patch kid while out antiquing in the neighborhood.

If you are looking to sell a Cabbage Patch Kid you own or purchase one for yourself or a child, there are plenty of online retailers that carry the vintage dolls. In all cases, make sure you do your research before you sell or buy. Ask for pictures, make inquiries on the condition of the dolls and where they came from, and ask if they still have the birth certificate the doll came with.

Timeless Trinkets
Timeless Trinkets is an online retailer that sells the toys of our past, as well as some of the more popular toys currently coming out. Vintage and new Cabbage Patch Kids are for sale on the site, and all are in good to very good condition. Prices are very reasonable and competitive with listings you would find on eBay or at a local antique shop.

eBay
You really can find anything on eBay, and Cabbage Patch Kids are no exception. Vintage Cabbage Patch Kids from eBay sellers run the spectrum of conditions. I have found brand new dolls that are still in the boxes they came in twenty years ago, and then there are those dolls that look like my brother got a hold of them too. When shopping on eBay though, only shop auctions that include photos of the doll for sale and read the return policy completely.

Happy Shopping!
Ruby Lane
I started browsing the independently owned shops featured on Ruby Lane years ago for vintage costume jewelry, but then I realized what a great source it was for all types of antiques, including Cabbage Patch Kids. Because there are individual stores, the price and quality of Cabbage Patch kids and doll gear is really varied. The average Cabbage Patch Kid on Ruby Lane costs around thirty dollars. You can also find doll clothing and memorabilia for yourself.
