Yes, worth the investment. This is my first time purchasing a doll. Anyway, it took me a month to narrow it down to the top two. I spent hours every day reading forums, making spreadsheets, and browsing websites. All in all, I narrowed it down to two dolls. Both dolls were about the same price. I decided to go with the doll from this site. When I went to the website to order, the sale was over. After a day or two, I decided to email the seller to see if they would still give me the discounted price. They did give it!
