Whoa to American Girl

Normally I would not bash the American Girl company, but I have to make and exception in this case. Every year American Girl introduces a limited edition "Girl of the Year", this year is no exception. What I take exception to is the outrageous price for one of the items in the collection. American Girl is trying to sell a travel trailer for dolls. This set comes with a camper, camping gear, stickers to decorate the outside, and a message board on the inside drops down to make a bed. All this for the tidy sum of $295 plus additional state taxes and $25.95 shipping! This amounts to $340.42 if you live in the state of Ohio! And this doesn't even the bloody doll that is $95 more! Granted American girl products are of good quality, (I own 5 American Girls and will soon own a Bitty Baby)but $295.00 is a bit much. To an extent even the clothes are overpriced. I can make almost exactly the same thing and sell it for half the price. I'm not begrudging American Girl there business, but I am saying that in this economy it is ridiculous to try and sell something at an outrageous price.
