The rarest Cabbage Patch dolls, such as “Baldies” and “Red Fuzzies” (dolls with red wool hair), are worth between US$ 100 and US$ 1,000. However, a doll based on former US vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin fetched US$10,000 on eBay. The doll appears Palin wearing a red suit, glasses and black shoes. Released just over a decade ago, this unique doll outperformed much older vintage Cabbage Patch dolls at auction.
