Marie Antoinette BarbieThis Limited Edition Marie Antoinette Barbie from 2003, the Women of Royalty Series, was the highest price collectible Barbie sold on eBay over the last 30 days.

The doll sold with a “Buy It Now” of $900 (and free shipping!) with this item description:

“Carrying a handcrafted porcelain pair of roses, Barbie® doll is the height of royalty as Marie Antoinette who became the Queen of France when her husband was crowned King Louis XVI in the 18th century. She wears a regal blue gown and matching bodice that is embellished with touches of golden lace. Draped with golden fringe, the generous layers of her extravagant gown are decorated with golden tassels and hide her full-length pantaloons and the blue satin ribbons on her shoes. A matching hat topped with feathers completes her ensemble. She wears an extravagant rhinestone necklace that complements her dramatic ensemble.”

The second higest priced collectible Barbie sold over the last 30 days was this I Love Lucy Ethel Mertz as Santa Claus Doll. It was a 2007 Platinum Edition and sold with a $700 “Buy It Now” and this description:

“The Christmas Show, also known as Jingle Bells, first aired on Christmas Eve, 1956, and what better way to conjure both the holiday spirit and fond TV memories than Ethel Mertz dressed as Santa Claus? Based on the lovably loyal sidekick from the revered series, I Love Lucy, this is the first-ever solo Ethel Mertz doll released by Mattel. This fun Platinum Label™ beauty is based on the episode that featured flashbacks woven with newer Christmas-themed footage, in which all four main characters — Lucy and Ricky Ricardo, plus best pals Fred and Ethel Mertz — dressed as Santa Claus, only to be surprised by a visit from the real thing!”

Several other Ethel as Santa dolls were sold in the $600 to $700 price range.
