Like many I bought (and regretted) going for too heavy a lady in the first place - its not unusual to see dolls for sale as they are too heavy for their new owner - often at considerable financial loss. May I respectfully advise it may be preferable to get a lighter lady to start with - it surely makes more sense than going for a heavy doll which you are already considering selling if too heavy ? good luck though and pls let us know how you get on..............
